In terms of weight, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 is the lighter of the two, clocking in at around 1.27 pounds when compared to the slightly weightier Microsoft Surface Pro 7 at 1.7 pounds.

The iPad Pro 12.9-inch is under 700 grams. Add the Surface Type keyboard (for £125 rrp) and the weight is 1.1Kg, which is somewhat more than most flagship, slimline laptops these days.
