Can the Surface Pro 7 Run Photoshop?

The Surface Pro 7 is a 2-in-1 laptop released by Microsoft in October 2019. The device is available in both Intel Core i5 and i7 processor variants, with the latter being more expensive. The Surface Pro 7 comes with 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM, and a 128 GB, 256 GB, or 512 GB solid-state drive (SSD).

The main selling point of the Surface Pro 7 is its portability; the device weighs just 1.70 pounds (0.77 kg) and is 0.33 inches (8.4 mm) thick. It also has a 12.3-inch PixelSense display with a resolution of 2736 x 1824 pixels and supports the use of a digital pen.

In terms of performance, the Surface Pro 7 is a capable device. It scored 4,732 on the Geekbench 4 benchmark, which is better than the average laptop (4,091). The Surface Pro 7 also did well on our video editing test, taking 4 minutes and 19 seconds to transcode a 4K video to 1080p.

However, the Surface Pro 7's real weakness is its battery life. The device only lasted for 3 hours and 58 minutes on our battery test, which simulates continuous web browsing over Wi-Fi at 150 nits of screen brightness. This is shorter than the average laptop battery life (4:37) and even shorter than the Surface Pro 6 (4:18).

Can the Surface Pro 7 Run Photoshop?

The answer is yes; the Surface Pro 7 can run Photoshop without any issues. However, we would not recommend using this device for heavy photo or video editing tasks as its battery life is quite short.
