Microsoft announced that it will hold a launch event on October 12, 2022, at 10 a.m. EDT and released a colorful poster modified according to the Windows 11 desktop wallpaper, which is expected to launch a new generation of Surface computers.
Microsoft’s Surface series will celebrate its 10th anniversary on October 26 this year, so the new Surface products in October are especially worth waiting for. According to previous reports, the Surface Pro 9, Surface Laptop 5, Surface Studio 3, and possibly even a Surface Gaming gaming book will be launched.
Microsoft’s annual Ignite conference will also be held from October 12 to 14, 2022, so the new launch will be held with the Ignite conference.
According to previous reports, Microsoft is developing the Surface Pro 9 2-in-1 device, which is expected to be released within the year, and will be available in both Intel and ARM versions, with the Surface Pro X product line being merged.
WinFuture claims to have gotten information from retailers about the Intel version of Surface Pro 9 with Intel Core i5-1235U and i7-1255U processors. In addition to the usual silver and black colors, there will also be a green version called “Forest” and a blue version called “Sapphire”.
The ARM version of the Surface Pro 9 is expected to be equipped with a Snapdragon 8cx Gen3 processor with 16GB of RAM and 5G support, and has appeared on the Geekbench scoring platform with a single-core score of 1005 and a multi-core score of 5574, and has passed FCC certification.
Microsoft will also release the Surface Laptop 5 at the same time, with the same 13- and 15-inch screen as its predecessor, according to the tipster rquandt.
