Microsoft released two small Copilot machines with new Snapdragon chips. The 12-inch Surface Pro tablet has eight cores, 16 GB of memory, and storage options up to 512 GB. The 13-inch Surface Laptop sports similar parts but has active cooling instead of passive. Both devices lack the old Surface Connect port and use USB ports for charging.
The Surface Pro 12 costs about $1,080 US with a rounder look than before. It shows images at 90 Hz instead of 120 Hz, makes no noise because it has no fan, and runs about 12 hours between charges. The magnetic keyboard adds almost $200 more to the price. The Surface Laptop 13 sells for about $1,210 US with a regular 60 Hz screen.
Microsoft kept the fingerprint reader but removed the infrared cameras from the laptop. It offers USB-C ports for monitors or power, one USB-A port, and a headphone jack. These machines arrive in Dutch stores on June 10 with the same basic parts inside. Buyers need to pay extra for a charger with the laptop.
