Microsoft 's Surface Pro strategy has been, shall we say, a little odd lately. Thea fine but boring deviceFinally, Microsoft has a new Surface Pro that may get the average person in the market for a laptop to sit up and pay attention. The new Surface Pro Copilot+ PC is another Arm-powered device, but Microsoft says that performance will not be compromised this time. In fact, thanks to a, Microsoft claims these machines are 58 percent faster than “the fastest MacBook Air” with an M3 processor.

Specifically, Copilot+ PCs must hit at 40 trillion operations per second, compared to the 18-ish trillion Apple claims with the M3. The Surface Pro itself hits 45 TOPS. The company further clarified that peak performance is 23 percent faster, while “sustained” performance is 58 percent faster. Notably, Microsoft made no mention of the M3 Pro or M3 Max chips here.

It's also a whopping 90 percent faster than the Surface Pro 9, and Microsoft is promising 22-ish hours of battery life for these new Copilot+ PCs. Physically, it's similar to what you'd expect — a tablet with a kickstand and keyboard attachment. But it does look like it has thinner bezels, and an 13-inch OLED screen for the first time. Finally, there's a"quad-HD" front-facing camera which seems the same as the one we saw on the Surface Pro 10 for business.

There's also a new keyboard called the Flex Keyboard that is meant to be used both attached to the device or removed and set somewhere more comfortable for you. The trackpad is 14 percent larger than before, as well.on board here, thanks to the NPU in all the new Copilot+ PC devices announced today. And much of it is happening on device, so you won't have to wait for data to hit the cloud or pay for various"pro AI subscriptions.

Pre-orders start today, and they'll be available on June 18. The Surface Pro starts at $1,000, and that includes a Snapdragon X Plus chip with a standard LCD screen. Stepping up to the OLED models jacks the price up to $1,500.
