The Redmond-based tech giant just held its Surface-themed event which was scheduled to take place September 22nd at 11 AM ET.
Microsoft officials revealed that Windows 11 would be available on new and existing devices starting October 5, and this event was a good opportunity for the company to reveal some new Surface models.
This is excellent news for people who are in the market for some new devices but aren’t quite pleased with the current ones available.
The rumored Surface Duo 2 and Surface Go 3 are confirmed
In a teaser photo for this specific event, we can see a Surface tablet with its familiar kickstand and detachable keyboard, so many thought that we might see a new Surface Pro 8 today. That’s now a reality, as many of the leaked devices were confirmed by Panos Panay at the live event.
Starting with the most affordable Surface device, the Surface Go, which gets a rework for this year. The new 2-in-1 keeps its entry-level price, with a significant bump in specs along with a few minor visual changes. Of course, Surface Go 3 is now fully compatible with Windows 11 and takes advantage of all of its perks.
Another device that made a lot of waves last year, the Surface Duo, is now getting a new set of features tailored specifically for productivity. This new device is called the Surface Duo 2 and it’s a significant improvement over its predecessor.
With a new set of cameras that include wide, ultrawide, and telephoto sensors, the new Duo is a lot easier to use as a daily driver for everyone. There are also two new 120Hz screens that make the experience a lot more fluid. When it comes to productivity, the new hinge brings the two screens closer together, making the transition between them seamless.
As for the processing power, the new Snapdragon 888 is the safe bet that will keep the Duo 2 alongside other premium devices.
