You can now save up to $399 on Surface Pro 4 bundles with Type Cover, Office 365, and more

Microsoft is offering huge savings to buyers of its Surface Pro 4 when they purchase the tablet with one of its Type Covers, along with its Essentials Bundle.

The greatest savings are to be found on the bundles that include its new NFL Type Covers - which feature full-color designs for each of the NFL's 32 teams - introduced earlier this week, priced at $159.99 when purchased separately.

For NFL fans, here's how the complete bundle breaks down:

1. Choose an NFL Surface Pro 4 Type Cover at the discounted price of $129.99.
2. Select one of these three Surface Pro 4 tablets
   - Intel Core i5 / 128GB / 4GB RAM
   - Intel Core i5 / 256GB / 8GB RAM
   - Intel Core i7 / 256GB / 16GB RAM
3. Add a HEX Surface Pro 4 Sleeve with Rear Pocket
4. Add an Office 365 Home one-year subscription
5. Add a Microsoft Complete Accident Protection package

The greatest savings are available on the cheapest of the three Surface Pro 4 models offered in the bundle, which is already being sold with $150 off its regular price:

1. NFL Surface Pro 4 Type Cover | $129.99 (was $159.99)
2. Surface Pro 4 Intel Core i5 / 128GB / 4GB RAM | $849 (was $999)
3. HEX Surface Pro 4 Sleeve | $0.00 (was $49.99)
4. Office 365 Home subscription | $79.99 (was $99.99)
5. Microsoft Complete Accident Protection | $0.00 (was $149)

The savings on that bundle add up to $398.99, reducing the total price to $1,058.98, compared with purchasing each of these items separately at the full price of $1,457.97.

If you choose one of the other two Surface Pro 4 tablets as part of the NFL bundle, you'll save $328.98 on the total cost of those items.

You can find the bundles with Type Covers for the NFL AFC teams here, and those for the NFC teams are here.

However, if you're not an NFL fan, you can still enjoy big savings on similar bundles with 'standard' $129.99 Type Covers; as well as the luxury Signature Type Cover with Alcantara Fabric, and the Type Cover with Fingerprint ID - both of which retail for $159.99.

1. Choose any Surface Pro 4 model
2. Choose any non-NFL Type Cover
3. Add HEX Surface Pro 4 Sleeve in black, blue or gray
4. Add an Office 365 Home one-year subscription
5. Add Microsoft Complete Accident Protection

As with the NFL bundles, the greatest savings can be found when buying the Surface Pro 4 models that are already discounted. On the non-NFL bundles - which are available with all models of the tablet, not just a limited selection - you can even choose the entry-level Surface Pro 4, which currently has $150 off its price. For example:

1. Surface Pro 4 Intel Core m3 / 128GB / 4GB RAM | $749 (was $899)
2. Type Cover | $129.99
3. HEX Surface Pro 4 Sleeve | $0.00 (was $49.99)
4. Office 365 Home subscription | $79.99 (was $99.99)
5. Microsoft Complete Accident Protection | $0.00 (was $149)

In that example bundle, the savings add up to $368.99 with the most affordable Surface Pro 4 model, reducing the total price of all the items to $958.98, compared with the full price of $1,327.97.

If you have more expensive tastes, and you purchase - let's say - the range-topping Surface Pro 4 with Intel Core i7, 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM, along with the Signature Type Cover, you'll save $298.98 on the full price.
