The Pro 9 with 5G, due to its ARM-based setup, has two USB-C 3.2, a NanoSIM slot, and a Surface Connect port. It retains dual Thunderbolt 4 and a proprietary Surface Connect port.

The Pro 9's 3.5mm audio jack (still available on the Pro 8) has gone extinct. The Pro 9 with 5G is only available in a Graphite color. The Pro 8 and Pro 9 come in Platinum and Graphite colors the Pro 9 also has new Sapphire and Forest options. This allows you to use the tablet at different angles, especially important when inking or typing with an attachable keyboard and touchpad.

Models still have a built-in stand on the back, capable of folding out 165 degrees. All Pro PCs are built into an anodized aluminum body. Weight is also similar, with just a few grams difference here and there depending on whether or not you opt for 5G. The dimensions are essentially the same, with both models measuring just 0.37 inches (9.4mm) thin. Not a whole lot has changed physically between the Pro 8 and new Pro 9. The PCs are very similar, so I only noted specs where there was a difference between consumer and commercial versions. We can now check out how the commercial versions of the 2-in-1 PCs compare.
