Every device is inspected and graded before it is listed, and each purchase is backed by store warranty support and a clear return window. The focus is simple: accurate product information, competitive UAE pricing, and dependable after-sales service so you know exactly what you are buying before it reaches you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Microsoft Surface Pro 9 (QEZ-00059) is a 13-inch Windows 11 2-in-1 device that works as a tablet on its own and as a laptop once a Surface Pro Signature Keyboard is attached. This configuration pairs a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U processor with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, running on Intel integrated graphics and Windows 11 Home. The edge-to-edge PixelSense touchscreen supports pen and touch input, while the adjustable built-in kickstand lets you set almost any working angle. It suits students, consultants, note-takers and mobile professionals in the UAE who want one lightweight device for documents, meetings, browsing and handwritten work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e13-inch PixelSense Touchscreen:\u003c\/strong\u003e Virtually edge-to-edge display with 10-point touch, ideal for reading, marking up documents and handwritten notes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intel Evo-class processor that handles Office work, dozens of browser tabs, video calls and light photo editing without strain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8GB RAM:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enough memory for smooth day-to-day multitasking across Windows 11, Microsoft 365 and web applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e256GB SSD Storage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast solid-state storage for quick boot times, rapid file access and responsive app loading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Built-In Kickstand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Positions the device for typing, sketching, presenting or watching — no separate stand required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrue 2-in-1 Flexibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Detaches to a tablet in seconds and converts back to a laptop with the Surface Pro Signature Keyboard (sold separately).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo USB-C Ports with Thunderbolt 4:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charge accessories, connect external monitors and move large files at high speed through a single connector type.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWindows 11 Home Pre-Installed:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ready to use out of the box with Microsoft Store apps, Snap Layouts and Windows Hello sign-in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntel Integrated Graphics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drives the high-resolution display and external monitors for everyday visual work and media playback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePen-Ready Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with Surface Slim Pen 2 for handwriting, sketching and document signing (sold separately).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForest Green Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e A distinctive colourway on a slim, lightweight chassis built for daily carry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Microsoft Surface Pro 9 is Microsoft's flagship 13-inch 2-in-1 Windows device, introduced in 2022 as the successor to the Surface Pro 8. It occupies a specific niche in the market: a full Windows 11 computer in a tablet body, sized and weighted for genuine portability, with a keyboard that attaches magnetically rather than being permanently fixed. This particular unit is the QEZ-00059 configuration — Intel Core i5-1235U, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Forest Green — which is the balanced mid-range specification most buyers choose for study and office work rather than heavy creative production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates the Surface Pro 9 from a conventional laptop is how many working positions it supports. Folded flat it is a tablet for reading and annotation. Propped on the kickstand with a keyboard attached it is a laptop. Angled low it becomes a drawing surface for the Slim Pen 2. For anyone who moves between meetings, lectures, site visits and a desk during the same day, that flexibility is the main reason to choose it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDisplay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Surface Pro 9 uses a 13-inch PixelSense touchscreen in a 3:2 aspect ratio. That taller shape matters more than it sounds — it shows noticeably more of a Word document, PDF, spreadsheet or web page vertically than a standard 16:9 panel of similar size, which reduces scrolling during document-heavy work. The bezels are slim on all four sides, so the screen dominates the front of the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTouch response is a core part of the experience rather than an afterthought. The panel supports multi-touch gestures for pinch-zoom and scrolling, and is designed to work with active pen input for handwriting and markup. For reading contracts, marking up drawings, signing documents or taking handwritten notes, the display is the feature that justifies the format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Intel Core i5-1235U is a 12th Gen mobile processor built on Intel's hybrid architecture, combining performance cores with efficiency cores. In practical terms, the efficiency cores handle background tasks — sync, updates, messaging apps — while the performance cores stay free for whatever you are actively doing. The result is a machine that stays responsive under a normal professional workload: multiple Office documents, a large browser session, Teams or Zoom running in the background, and a media stream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith 8GB of RAM, this configuration is aimed at mainstream productivity rather than heavy content creation. It comfortably runs Microsoft 365, browser-based tools, PDF work, email, video conferencing and light image editing. Users planning to run virtual machines, large datasets or professional video editing should look at a 16GB configuration instead. The 256GB SSD provides fast storage for the operating system, applications and a working set of documents, with cloud storage or an external drive covering larger archives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntel integrated graphics handle the display, external monitors and everyday visual tasks. This is not a gaming device and is not marketed as one — light and older titles or cloud gaming are realistic, demanding modern titles are not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWindows 11 and Software\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe device ships with Windows 11 Home pre-installed. Windows 11 was designed with touch and 2-in-1 hardware in mind, which is why the Surface Pro line feels more coherent than most touch-enabled laptops: touch targets are larger, Snap Layouts make split-screen work quick, and the interface adapts when the keyboard is detached. Microsoft 365, the Microsoft Store, Edge and the full Windows application library all run natively, so there is no compatibility compromise compared with a traditional laptop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWindows Hello sign-in is supported through the front-facing camera system, allowing you to unlock the device by looking at it rather than typing a password — a practical benefit when you pick the device up and put it down repeatedly through the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnectivity on the Surface Pro 9 is deliberately modern and minimal. The device provides two USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4 support, which handle charging, external displays, docking stations and high-speed data transfer through the same connector. A single Thunderbolt dock can therefore connect a monitor, keyboard, mouse, wired network and power in one cable — a genuinely convenient desk setup. A Surface Connect port is also present for Surface-specific charging and docking accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWireless connectivity covers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for headphones, mice, keyboards and file transfer. Note that this is the Wi-Fi model; it is not the 5G variant of the Surface Pro 9.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign and Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Surface Pro 9 is a slim, single-slab device with rounded edges and a full-width adjustable kickstand built into the rear panel. The kickstand is the defining design element — it holds firm at a wide range of angles, from near-upright for typing to a shallow incline for writing. Because the stand is integrated, there is nothing extra to carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit is finished in Forest Green, one of the colour options introduced with the Surface Pro 9. At 13 inches and light enough for daily carry, it slips into a bag alongside documents without adding meaningful weight, which is the entire point of the format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magnetic keyboard connector along the bottom edge accepts the Surface Pro Signature Keyboard, and the Slim Pen 2 stores and charges in the keyboard's pen garage. \u003cstrong\u003ePlease note this listing is for the device and charger only — keyboard and pen are not included.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBest Uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStudents and researchers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handwritten lecture notes, annotated PDFs and coursework on one device.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConsultants and sales professionals:\u003c\/strong\u003e A tablet for client-facing presentations that becomes a laptop for reporting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOffice and administrative work:\u003c\/strong\u003e Microsoft 365, email, spreadsheets and video meetings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequent travellers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light enough for cabin-bag work, with a kickstand that fits a tray table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDocument signing and review:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pen-ready markup for legal, real estate and engineering paperwork.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary device users:\u003c\/strong\u003e A portable companion to a desktop or workstation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy the Surface Pro 9 QEZ-00059?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration hits the practical middle of the Surface Pro 9 range.

The Surface Pro 9 is a Windows 11 tablet with a built-in adjustable kickstand that becomes a laptop when you attach a Surface Pro Signature Keyboard.
