According to Windows Central, Microsoft is about to release new smaller versions of the Surface Pro 2-in-1 and Surface Laptop “in the coming weeks.” These new versions will remain premium products, with 11-inch or 12-inch screens and more lightweight designs.
Bowden cites unnamed sources who say that the smaller Surface Pro is meant to compete with Apple’s iPad Pro (which is 11 inches), not just on screen size and portability but also on refresh rate and pen support. Meanwhile, the Surface Laptop will reportedly have a higher resolution touchscreen, a backlit keyboard, and an all-metal body.
Both Surface Pro and Surface Laptop will continue to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processors, but not the same Snapdragon X Elite chips in the 2024 models. These smaller iterations will run on Snapdragon X Plus chips, which paved the way for affordable laptops with tremendous battery life.
These smaller variants will be sold alongside the current Surface Pro and Surface Laptop models, in the $800 to $900 price range. Meanwhile, Microsoft is also working on Lunar Lake variants of the Surface Pro and Surface Laptop, but those are more business-oriented.
