What you need to know
- Microsoft's new Surface Pro 11th Edition and Surface Laptop 7th Edition devices are available to preorder now, and are expected to begin shipping in June.
- Both Surfaces are "Copilot+" PCs, and feature Qualcomm's new Snapdragon X Plus and Elite chips that offer major performance boost over other system-on-a-chips (SoCs). Their NPUs also power a number of special AI features and enhancements.
- Some of these include visual and contextual awareness for Microsoft Copilot, a special feature called Windows Recall that can help you find something you've looked at on your PC previously based on searches and clues you provide, and a tool called Live Captions that transcribes and translates audio into text in real time.
- Both the convertible 2-in-1 Surface Pro 11th Edition and clamshell Surface Laptop 7th Edition have a starting price of $999.99, with the former getting an OLED option for the first time and the latter sporting an overhauled design with thinner bezels and a 120Hz Adaptive color PixelSense display.
