...What on earth would be the point of buying an engineering sample of a mediocre internal upgrade of an uninspiring line of bland tablets?

Mediocre internal update? Gfx performance 2x improve. Single thread highest performance ever. What do you want to see inside the internal? A rtx3090 gfx?
lmao it's run of the mill Intel, moreover the SP line has a bad reputation regarding their heat management, you stand a better chance getting more out of the same chip in an XPS 13 2N1.

It wouldn't be all gee wiz newness but the two but the biggest shortcoming of the Surface line for me is no thunderbolt 3.   Put TB3 or TB4 on it and I'll buy one without any other changes... because then I can use it interchangeably with my other computers that all use a TB3 eGPU / dock. 

Now updating to 11th gen is a no brainer and they could even squeeze a 13" screen into that chassis unchanged with thinner bezels. 

So those three things seem doable to me.   But will they... they so love their proprietary dock and lack of egpu support.

An engineering sample of the upcoming Microsoft Surface Pro 8 has been put up for sale on eBay with bids starting from US$1,300. According to the seller's description, the Surface Pro 8 is powered by an Intel Tiger Lake Core i7-1165G7 CPU, 32 GB RAM, and a 1 TB SSD. Though still a prototype, this listing indicates that the Surface Pro 8 will sport the same chassis as the Surface Pro 7 with no design changes.
