On December 13, 2021, iFixit and Microsoft announced a program where iFixit Pro independent repairers and Microsoft Authorized Service Providers can purchase tools for repairing select Microsoft Surface devices directly from iFixit.com.

Background

The Surface Pro 8 was announced on September 22, 2021 in conjunction with Windows 11, and is one of the first devices to pre-install the new operating system. Microsoft’s eighth generation Surface Pro combines the form factor and aesthetic of the Surface Pro X with the Intel 64-bit processor architecture used in the Surface Pro 7+. The Pro 8 has an upgraded processor and battery, slightly larger screen, and is the first Surface Pro to include two USB‑C ports with Thunderbolt 4. Unlike previous models, the Surface Pro 8 doesn't include a microSD card slot.

Identification

The Surface Pro devices all look very similar, having a sleek design with a kickstand and detachable keyboard. You can identify your Surface Pro model by the 4-digit number printed under the kickstand on the bottom edge of the back cover:
