Microsoft Intros New Surface 13-inch Laptop and Surface Pro 12-inch Tablet

Copilot+ PCs continue to define the next wave of personal computing—fast, long lasting, secure PCs that are purpose-built to unlock AI experiences that empower us to get more done. Today, Microsoft and Surface expand the Copilot+ PC family with the new Surface Laptop, 13-inch and Surface Pro, 12-inch, designed with performance and portability in mind. These new PCs reflect the next chapter of Surface innovation bringing ultra-thin, lightweight and powerful Copilot+ PCs to more people at even lower price points.

Last May, we introduced a new category of devices—Copilot+ PCs, the fastest, most intelligent Windows PCs ever, with our flagship Surface Laptop and Surface Pro representing the ultimate Copilot+ PCs from Microsoft. Copilot+ PCs are lightning fast, responsive devices with long battery life, built to be secure by design and by default, and unlock exclusive AI experiences, running locally thanks to the Neural Processing Unit in their advanced processors. Windows continues to invest in Copilot+ PCs, with a new agent in settings and new Copilot+ PC experiences announced today—rolling out first to Windows Insiders. Today, we are proud to introduce two new Surface Copilot+ PCs, powered by Snapdragon X Plus processors, that deliver great experiences for great value. You now have more options to choose the right Surface Copilot+ PC to fit your needs.

“We are excited to continue to partner with Microsoft as we expand the Snapdragon Copilot+ PC ecosystem to include Surface Laptop and Surface Pro. Both devices are powered by Snapdragon X Plus (8-core) and a 45 TOPS NPU, delivering the performance, speed and battery life customers expect, alongside exclusive AI experiences designed to streamline workflows and help users focus on what matters most.”—Kedar Kondap, SVP & GM of Compute and Gaming at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

Introducing the all-new Surface Laptop, 13-inch: A Copilot+ PC designed for the way you work and live
The Surface Laptop, 13-inch is our thinnest and lightest Surface Laptop yet—crafted for portability, built for performance and enhanced with the power of AI. The new Surface Laptop is smaller than a standard notebook, making it effortless to slip into your bag and take anywhere. It features a premium anodized aluminium chassis and comes in three stunning colors: Ocean, Violet and Platinum. To complete the look, you can pair your device with the Surface Arc Mouse, our most beloved and best-selling mouse, which is now available in matching Ocean and Violet.

Powered by the Snapdragon X Plus processor including an integrated 45 TOPS (trillion operations per second) NPU, the new Surface Laptop is 50% faster than Surface Laptop 5 and outpaces the MacBook Air M3. It’s incredibly snappy and responsive, giving you all the speed you need to do more.

The new Surface Laptop delivers the longest battery life of any Surface, with up to 23 hours of video playback and up to 16 hours of active web browsing, allowing you to work from anywhere, without the need to plug in. With universal USB-C fast charging, it’s never been easier to stay powered up on the go.

The experience is elevated in every detail. A vibrant 13-inch full HD touchscreen display is framed by ultra-thin bezels, drawing you in whether you’re working, streaming or creating. The built-in AI-enhanced camera with Auto Video HDR and AI noise reduction ensures you look and sound your best in any environment.

Typing is quiet and comfortable, with a keyboard designed for all-day productivity. The fingerprint reader built into the power button enables seamless, secure sign-in, while the new Copilot key puts the power of AI right at your fingertips. With a customizable precision touchpad featuring adaptive touch mode, navigation feels natural and intuitive.

Surface continues to deliver sustainability advancements. The new Surface Laptop contains 100% recycled cobalt in the battery cell and 100% recycled rare earth metals in the magnets. Many components can be replaced by authorized service providers or skilled technicians—supporting a more repairable, circular approach to device design.

New Surface Pro, 12-inch: The thinnest and lightest Copilot+ PC yet
The all-new Surface Pro maintains the iconic versatility of the 2-in-1 form factor, providing the functionality of a laptop and the portability of a tablet, with the help of its built-in adjustable kickstand and detachable keyboard. Surface Slim Pen now magnetically attaches to the back of the tablet for charging and secure storage, ready for you when you need it. The new Surface Pro is built with creativity in mind, allowing you to type, write and draw, all on one device.

Also powered by the Snapdragon X Plus processor with an integrated and powerful 45 TOPS NPU, this new Surface Pro is fast and smooth with all-day battery life, delivered in a 1.5 pound package that can fit in your small bag.

The reimagined Surface Pro 12-inch Keyboard transforms your Surface Pro into a laptop. The new keyboard attaches easily and lies flat for a grounded and quiet typing experience. It features a smooth-matte palm rest for comfort and durability, a full-size backlit keyset and customizable precision touchpad with adaptive touch mode. The new keyboard now folds back completely flat against the Surface Pro, so you can sketch or write comfortably. With dedicated keys like the Copilot key and lock key, you have all the functions you need, right at your fingertips. The Surface Pro 12-inch Keyboard is available in three beautiful new colors to complement your Pro: Slate, Ocean and Violet.

Designed with sustainability in mind, the Surface Pro contains 82.9% recycled content in the enclosure and is the first Pro to contain 100% recycled cobalt in the battery cell. Pro is also designed to help reduce e-waste with many components designed to be replaced by skilled technicians or authorized service providers.

AI experiences enabled by the NPU
Beyond a sleek and portable design, great performance and all-day battery life, Surface Copilot+ PCs unlock AI tools that work alongside you to make your tasks easier and workflows more efficient. With incredible Copilot+ PC experiences available now, and more continuing to roll out, the new Pro and Laptop help you meet your productivity and creativity demands with AI-powered solutions.

Your new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop give you access to Copilot+ PC experiences today:

  • Recall (preview) is an opt-in experience that transforms how you search for and rediscover content on your PC.
  • Now you can retrace your steps in seconds to quickly and securely find and get back to an app, website, image or document.
  • You can describe in your own words what you are looking for, and improved Windows search will comb through images and documents to find it for you, whether you’re in File Explorer, the Windows Search box or Settings.
  • With Click to Do (preview), you can identify text and images on your screen and take actions that take advantage of local and web-based AI models to be more productive while staying in your flow.

The new Pro and Laptop are also an investment in the future of Copilot+ PC experiences, as we continue to roll out the AI tools you need. The following features will first be available to Windows Insiders before expanding more broadly:

  • The new agent in Settings—rolling out first to Windows Insiders—will allow you to describe an issue in your own words and get recommendations on how to address it. With your permission, it can even complete the actions on your behalf.
  • You will be able to bring pro-grade lighting effects to pictures on your Copilot+ PC with Photos Relight.

We are continuously partnering with new ISVs and welcoming them to leverage our platform capabilities and the power of the NPU to benefit from ultra-low latency, higher performance and enhanced security with data staying on the device. We are excited that Moises Live by Music.AI sets a new standard in real-time audio separation and control, such as isolating the volumes of percussion, vocals and other elements, enhancing the music learning and practicing experience. The experience is 35 times faster on the Snapdragon X NPU compared to the CPU. Gigapixel AI by Topaz Labs revolutionizes the way you upscale images, allowing you to enlarge and enhance images up to 16 times their original size while maintaining high quality and detail.

There is a growing list of apps with incredible AI experiences that our developers have built leveraging the NPU such as Capcut, DJay Pro, Davinci Resolve, Camo, Cephable, Liquidtext and many more.
