Microsoft's New Surface Laptop and Surface Pro Upgrade to Snapdragon X2 and Start at $1,499
Microsoft says the new Surface Laptop and Surface Pro deliver up to 53% faster graphics and 15.5 hours of battery life.
- On Tuesday, Microsoft released the Surface Laptop 8 and Surface Pro 12, powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon X2 chips, starting at $1,599 and $1,499 respectively.
- These next-gen Copilot+ PCs promise up to 53 percent faster graphics, with Microsoft corporate VP of Surface Andrew Hill emphasizing the company prioritized reliability and battery life during development.
- While introducing haptic trackpad support and new Jade and Dune color options, the Surface Laptop 8 faces criticism for starting with just 256 GB of storage—half the previous generation.
- Microsoft is offering promotional incentives: Surface Pro 12 buyers this month receive a free Surface Pro 13-inch Keyboard, while Surface Laptop 8 purchasers get a free Surface Arc Mouse through June 30.
- These remain the most affordable options in Microsoft's current lineup; the company plans to release the more powerful Surface Laptop Ultra later this year as it expands consumer Windows on Arm devices.
