If (like me) your power source is to the left of where you’re sitting, this means the cable can easily get in your way. The port is located on the bottom-right of the device in this mode, a highly unusual position by traditional laptop standards.
However, Microsoft’s persistence with the proprietary Surface Connect cable can make it slightly awkward to use with a keyboard while charging. The Pro 7+ reached 37% in 30 minutes from empty, giving you at least a couple of hours’ of use if you forgot to charge it overnight and plugged it in quickly while you eat breakfast.
It’s a similarly impressive story when it comes to charging, although don’t expect smartphone-level speeds. That’s with the brightness set to relatively dim 120 nits, and so not necessarily reflective of real-world usage, but it’s now a device that can comfortably make it through a full 8-hour working day without the safety net of a mains socket.
I recorded just over 13 hours when playing a 720p video on loop, an above-average result compared to most laptops.
