IGEEKPHONE News, May 20th: Microsoft has officially released the new Surface Pro 12 model equipped with Intel Core Ultra 300 series processors.
Unlike the ARM version of Surface Pro 11 which was launched first two years ago, this time it is the Intel version that comes out first. The same series of models equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 will be released later this year.
The Surface Pro 12 features a 13-inch PixelSense touchscreen. The base configuration includes an Intel Core i7 335 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 256GB detachable SSD. The starting price is $1,949.99 (approximately 13,285 yuan).
Additionally, you can also choose the Core Ultra 7 366H processor. The highest configuration is Ultra 7 366H + 64GB + 1TB, and the price is $4399.99 (approximately 29,975 yuan).
However, the highest configuration option is not yet available in the Microsoft official configurator. The OLED screen option is also listed in the specifications, but the current purchase page only offers the LCD version.
In terms of interface, it is equipped with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, and has a rear 10-megapixel 4K camera and a front 1440p network camera. The official specification indicates that the battery life can last up to 17 hours.
The keyboard still adopts the Surface Connect magnetic connection interface, and the old accessories can still be used.
Microsoft has positioned the new Surface product line for the commercial and enterprise markets. As a result, the starting price is relatively high. The commercial models are additionally equipped with enhanced security features, optimized remote management, and higher system stability. The consumer version is expected to have a lower price.
