The other Surface Pro 6 model seeing a historically low price is the option with 1TB SSD storage, 16GB RAM and a Core i7 processor, which has £460 off, bringing the price to £1,689. While that’s still a pretty penny, it’s nowhere near the £2,149 RRP.

With the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 hitting stores on 22 October (you can pre-order it now), it’s not too surprising to see Surface Pro 6 prices on the decline, but it’s hard not to notice such a large price drop so far in advance of Black Friday, which is on 29 November this year. While we can’t say whether prices will drop further come November, we do know it’s a ripe time to pick up a Surface Pro 6 on a bargain, which remains one of the best Windows tablets around.
