A surface tablet with a linux image is underrated IMO. They are good and capable hardware and can be had for cheap. I don’t understand why PI is used for a tablet when its purpose is a standalone device with IO capabilities or for experimenting. I went on this path and bought a few linux first devices and while fun they did not perform even close to an consumer device which with the right image (linux) it could become a very good daily driver.
I'm writing educational games for the PI, so it makes sense for me to get a device with the same hardware to work on. Also I can test builds without taking over one of my kid's devices
