Unveiling the Future: The Seamless Compatibility of Surface Pro X with Everyday Accessories

While personal computing continues to rapidly evolve, as we transition from the traditional desktop experience to the new natural world of ARM-based Surface Pro X and therefore Windows 11, the most important question for Windows 10, and now 11 users, really comes down to accessory compatibility and whether we can easily plug in our familiar gear into the new world we’re moving into. Ultimately, is it worth it? Our goal is to explore questions surrounding the ongoing compatibility and the desired user experience as we look to the future and learn to adapt technology to fit us, not the other way around.

Embracing Wireless Connectivity: A Pro's Perspective

Bluetooth and Wireless Dongles: A Smooth Transition

Despite my fears about accessory compatibility, the Surface Pro X manages the transition from the plank from which it springs with aplomb. Every other wireless device I throw at it – whether Bluetooth peripherals or the occasional device with a dedicated USB dongle – registers as it should. First to get connected is a SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless keyboard. The device pops up instantly in the Windows Settings menu. It knows its place, like complying peripherals do.

At the same time, the Surface Pro X keeps in contact with a third-party Bluetooth keyboard, further validating its ability to switch between a number of wirelessly connected peripherals without having to engage in elaborate setup or configuration processes.

Audio Connectivity: A High Note in Accessibility

But the ability to hear in the same way gets extended with the Surface Pro X. Any Bluetooth buds, even at the entry-level price point, pair with the device, without having to install special drivers or software (the ultimate driver Microsoft offers for generic drivers covering vastly popular peripherals). This makes it possible that wireless microphone systems such as RØDE’s Wireless ME can work and work well, letting the user hear and record properly, whether for work or play.

Expanding Visual Horizons: Monitors and Gaming

This is where the glory of the Surface Pro X starts to go way beyond the likes of attaching accessories and diving into the juicy ecosystem of gaming and external displays: with the ability to plug in a Surface Pro X directly to a gaming monitor such as the Alienware 55 through a dock.It points to the flexibility of the Surface Pro X, which next to being a productivity device also offers those who want to use it for gaming and streaming – for example through Xbox Cloud Gaming and NVIDIA GeForce NOW – another juicy angle.

Navigating the Final Frontier: Printer Connectivity

Starting and ending its journey at the centre of the compatibility landscape, the only notable hump in the middle is where the issue of printers (and scanners in particular) comes up; even that turned out to be a good workaround, given the OCR capabilities in the Surface Pro X’s equivalent of the Snipping tool. So, while native and seamless printer and scanner integration aren’t quite there yet, it’s interesting how the Surface Pro X compensates for the lack of full integration, both in terms of hardware and software, and pivots toward providing the user alternative, and sometimes better, solutions. This device clearly shows that technology adapts, and we should be ready for the best solution to the challenges we face.

The Surface Pro X: A Beacon of Compatibility

Understanding the Core: The Pro Element

At the centre of this adaptability, and the ability for the Pro X to work with such a vast range of accessories, is that ARM architecture which lies at the heart of the device. It isn’t just that the ARM architecture makes the Pro X work, it’s the fact that the ARM architecture allows it to work and work well. Whether the Pro X is connecting to a simple Bluetooth keyboard, or working with a multimonitor enterprise setup, or even docked into a formidable gaming station, its ARM architecture structure and flexibility ensures that it connects quickly, easily and, most importantly, effectively, both for you and for external software. The Pro X doesn’t just dabble with new areas of computing, it does so with a fluidity and efficiency which promises a new era of computing flexibility.
