Amazon and Best Buy are slashing the latest Surface Pro 7+ to just $700 USD. The price cut may suggest that a replacement could be launching soon with Intel 12th gen CPU options.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Microsoft-Surface-Pro-7-Plus-is-the-cheapest-it-s-ever-been-at-700-USD-with-Core-i5-CPU-8-GB-RAM-and-128-GB-SSD.629676.0.html
Please do not buy Surface Pros! I learnt this by burning two big holes in my pocket! Purchase a Surface Pro 6 and a Surface Pro 7. Both failed with a ir-repairable ghost Screen issues. Microsoft simply offered to give a me a refurbished model if I am ready to pay 450 USD?!!! Yes, after I paid full amount for my laptop, I had to pay another 450+shipping for a broken+fixed laptop which has no guarantee. Talking about customer service. So, I purchased the LCD screen in ebay for 120 USD + shipping, paid 50USD to fix it to make it work. Finally, all the Surface Pros from 5 series on wards they have this issue with the screen. So, DONT BUY THEM.

Good thing warranty is legally 3 years minimum in Europe.
In another note, Surface Pro 6 i5 still working wonders as a friend's main computer with not issues whatsoever. Our respective encounters with Surface Pros are statistically irrelevant.

Hi heffeque,
the minimum warranty length in the EU is actually just two years, and it must be given by the retailer, not the manufacturer of the device.

Your point is like "you watched your friend using surface all the time!". At least my experience is first hand and more relevant than those paid surveys/statistics. You should plunk 2000 USD and then you should talk, not using someone's money!

Hello Enrico,
You are right. It must be particular to Spain: https://www.lifewire.com/how-spains-mandatory-three-year-warranty-could-change-everything-5183742
