The Pro X has the smallest display at 13 inches, and it comes with a 2880x1920 resolution at 267 PPI. Surface devices have some of the nicest touch displays out there, so no matter which laptop you choose, you're going to get a high resolution with touch and inking capabilities.

You can, however, reattach the tablet to the base backward, offering up a sturdy stand that's reminiscent of something you'd see with a convertible laptop. This means you can remove the tablet portion, though there's no kickstand on the back like on the Pro X. The base with keyboard and touchpad has inside extra performance hardware - like dedicated GPU and larger battery - while the tablet portion includes everything needed to operate alone, including CPU, RAM, and storage. The Surface Book 2 comes in 13.5- and 15-inch configurations, and it's built to be modular. It's a 2-in-1, so it still has a folding kickstand on the back to prop up the tablet either with or without the keyboard attached. Although its footprint is nearly the same as the refreshed Surface Pro 7, it has a thinner chassis and a redesigned detachable keyboard (opens in new tab) with built-in storage and charging for the new Surface Slim Pen (opens in new tab). The Surface Pro X is a bit of a departure from the standard Pro line.
