With the new Surface Pro Signature Keyboard (S$239), you can easily switch the Surface Pro 8 between a tablet and a laptop. This keyboard also provides storage and charging capability for the new Surface Slim Pen 2 (S$179). This new stylus offers haptic feedback and a 120Hz refresh rate, so it will be like writing on paper when using it on the Surface Pro 8’s display.
