The Laptop Studio looks like a traditional laptop that sits on a fanbase, but the 14.4in 120Hz touch screen unclips at the bottom, pulling forward and folding down on to the deck of the machine to turn into a large drawing pad similar to the Surface Studio desktop. The Surface Laptop Studio, a type of laptop workstation, is designed to combine the best bits of Microsoft’s laptop and desktop computers. The Surface Laptop Studio’s Dolby Vision-supporting screen is on a hinge that converts it between laptop, stage and studio modes. Microsoft also announced the Ocean Plastic Mouse that is made of 20% recycled plastic. The smaller, cheaper Surface Go 3 has also been announced with faster chips while the Surface Pro X line now starts with a cheaper model and wifi-only options. The Surface Pro 8 starts at $1,099.99 in the US from 8 October and £999 in the UK from 28 October. It also has a redesigned keyboard and Surface Slim Pen 2 stylus that contains a vibrating motor designed to give you the sensation of pen on paper as you write on the glass screen. The Pro 8 is twice as fast as the Pro 7 with the latest 11th generation Intel Core chips, up to 32GB of RAM and two USB4/Thunderbolt 4 ports. The Surface Pro 8 now has a larger, brighter and higher resolution 13in touchscreen that supports Dolby Vision HDR and a refresh rate up to 120Hz for a smoother experience – a rarity outside dedicated gaming PCs. Microsoft’s popular original two-in-one convertible tablet PC has had a full redesign for its eighth generation. The Surface Pro 8 resembles the sleeker design of the Surface Pro X with bigger screen and modern ports.
