Microsoft Surface Pro 11, Surface Laptop 7 Introduced As Company’s First Copilot+ PCs: Price, Features

Microsoft unveiled the Surface Pro 11 and Surface Laptop 7 for consumers on Monday (May 20) at its Surface and Windows AI event. These devices follow after the tech giant’s business-focused Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6 which were introduced in March this year. The consumer-focused devices also become the company’s first Copilot+ PCs, as the Windows maker integrates artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities in them. Notably, these PCs are powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X series chipsets instead of Intel Core Ultra chipsets seen in the business-focused Surface devices.
