Microsoft launches ‘All Access’ payment plan for Surface products

Microsoft is trying to make it simpler and cheaper — up front, at least — for customers to buy into its Surface lineup. The advantage of buying through the All Access program is that the pricing is somewhat cheaper, assuming you would have bought all of these things in the first place.
But while this sounds like a subscription service, it’s not. In reality, Surface All Access is just a well branded payment plan. So unlike a phone upgrade program, you don’t trade in the Surface devices for better ones later on; you keep paying month to month until you finally pay off the purchase after two years.

Under the payment plan, a Surface Go with a Type Cover and two years of Office 365 costs around $600; that’d add up to closer to $670 if you’d bought it all outright. But, if you hadn’t planned on buying Office 365 at all, you’ll be spending extra.
The Surface All Access plan follows the Xbox All Access plan that Microsoft launched back in August. Similarly, that plan let customers get an Xbox and an Xbox Live subscription for a monthly fee.
Microsoft is essentially branding its payment plan as “All Access” and bundling a subscription to round them out and potentially get customers to spring for more than they otherwise would have.

For people interested in all those services, they might find a good deal here. Just make sure you know what you’re getting when you sign up for something that sounds like it gives you a whole lot more.
