Grab yourself a cheaper Surface Pro 4 by ditching the pen

surface-pro-4-no-pen

While there is a lot to love about Surface Pro 4, the price tag can be a little off-putting to would-be buyers. Microsoft has clearly heard the complaints about pricing and has introduced a cheaper option.

For the first time, it is now possible to buy a Surface Pro 4 without a pen, shaving a not-insignificant $100 off the usual price. Somewhat strangely only one model is available without the pen, but this is something that could change further down the line. Even if you want a pen, buying without actually works out cheaper!

The only model available to buy at the moment is the 128GB Intel Core m3 which drops in price from $899 to $799 as it loses the pen. Should you later decide that you want a pen -- or even if you want to just save yourself $40.01 -- you can buy one separately for $59.99.

It's worth noting that the sans pen version is also available in the UK, but pricing is a mess at the moment. A special offer running right now means that it's still cheaper to buy with the pen than without (£609 vs £749).

If you want to grab yourself a Surface Pro 4 without a pen in the US, head over to the Microsoft Store and prepare to hand over $799.
