Once it's set up (which only takes a few minutes), you should be able to bypass entering your password every time you flip open your Surface, as long as the webcam and infrared sensors can recognize your face. Like many Windows computers, you can sign into the Surface Pro X using Windows Hello facial recognition.

There's even a slot above the keys to hold your stylus in place, should you choose to snag one. The keyboard itself is spacious, and its keys have enough depth to help prevent discomfort over long typing sessions. If you're familiar with the Surface Pro's traditional covers, it's pretty much the exact same thing: it attaches to the bottom of the Surface via a strip of magnets and can be positioned at two different angles for your preferred typing experience. Once you latch a keyboard onto each tablet, the Surface Pro X comes out slightly ahead at a total of 2.38 pounds, which is significantly lighter than the iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard's 3.0 pounds. At just 1.7 pounds (without the Type Cover attached), it's a bit heavier than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, but that's without Apple's Magic Keyboard attached. They're minor changes, but they give the Pro X a sleeker, more distinguished look. Its edges are more rounded, and its bezels are thinner than on the Surface Pro 7. There are a few key differences, though, that makes the Pro X look slightly more refined. The Surface Pro X looks pretty similar to other Microsoft Surfaces at first glance: it's a big slab of glass with a 3:2 aspect ratio and a nifty kickstand on the back to hold itself up. The Surface Pro X's kickstand is sturdy and provides plenty of viewing angles to suit your needs.
