Microsoft has taken the wraps off its latest Surface devices – the Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6. While visually reminiscent of their predecessor, these are the company’s first PCs to feature Intel Meteor Lake processors with integrated NPUs for on-device AI features.
The new Surface devices are also the first from Microsoft to feature a dedicated Copilot key on the keyboard. And in case the name didn’t say it, Microsoft is targeting these devices primarily for business use, rather than for everyday consumers. Hence, with all the AI upgrades, Microsoft is calling them “the first Surface AI PCs built exclusively for business.”
Microsoft Surface Pro 10 for Business
The biggest upgrade on the Surface Pro 10 internally is the new Intel Core Ultra chipsets — you can choose between Intel Core Ultra 5 135U or Ultra 7 165U options.
They come with a range of LPDDR5X RAM configurations, with the base being 8GB, while the highest-tier variant goes up to 64 GB. Storage options are equally generous, ranging from 256GB to 1TB with detachable Gen4 SSDs for flexibility.
There’s not a size increase in terms of display. You still get a 13-inch IPS touchscreen with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, but it now has a new anti-reflective coating and 33 percent more brightness.
The Surface Pro 10 also has a lightweight design at just 1.94 lbs while it is also Microsoft’s first Intel-powered Surface tablet with optional support for a 5G radio.
Additionally, the tablet’s 1440p front-facing camera now offers a 114-degree field-of-view and supports Windows Studio Effects, including enhanced background blur during video calls, eye contact correction, and auto-framing.
The Surface Pro 10 for Business will be available for pre-order starting today, April (check current year), at a base price of $1,199.
Microsoft Surface Laptop 6 For Business
The Surface Laptop 6 shares the same Intel processor options as the Pro 10 and continues to offer both 13.5-inch and 15-inch IPS display choices.
Memory configurations include up to 64GB of RAM and 1TB SSDs, with pricing ranging from $1,199 up to $2,999. The NPU brings Intel AI Boost to the Laptop 6, making it a strong contender for AI-related workloads.
The 15-inch model adds an extra USB-C port and a smart card reader. Additionally, the webcam gets a much-needed upgrade in this model, from 720p to 1080p. And like the Pro 10, it also benefits from AI-powered Windows Studio Effects for enhanced video and audio calls.
Beyond these improvements, perhaps the most notable upgrade in both new Surface products is their enhanced repairability. Users can now easily replace components such as the SSD, battery, and even the motherboard, thanks to QR codes on the parts that link to clear, guided tutorials.
