“We are excited to bring the new Surface Pro 8 to India, our most powerful Pro ever. Each new version of Windows unlocks the next generation of hardware innovation. For the last decade, Surface has been at the forefront – challenging convention, pioneering new experiences and creating entirely new categories of devices. Today, we are revealing an update to our iconic 2-in-1, representing the most significant leap forward since Pro 3, and we hope this helps people unlock more possibilities as they work on-the-go or from home,” said Bhaskar Basu, Country Head – Devices (Surface), Microsoft India.
Designed to light up the best of Windows 11, Surface Pro 8 combines the power of a laptop with the flexibility of a tablet, and every angle in between, with the iconic kickstand and detachable keyboard with built-in Slim Pen storage and charging.[1] It also allows one to extend the ultimate desktop experience with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, helping create the ultimate productivity setup with multiple 4K monitors, an external hard drive, or a gaming setup with external GPU.
Featuring the most technically advanced display ever built, Surface Pro 8 features a vibrant 13” PixelSense touchscreen that is virtually edge to edge. With Dolby® Vision™ and Adaptive Color Technology, enjoy a viewing experience that’s comfortable on the eyes and true to life and 120Hz display refresh rate for a more responsive touch. With advanced LTE built into select configurations, Surface Pro 8 is the ideal hybrid device, giving people a dynamic on-the-go tablet and the ultimate work-from-home set-up. The incredible 5MP front-facing camera, 10MP-4K rear-facing camera, Dolby® Atmos™ sound, and dual far-field Studio Mics keep you looking and sounding your best.
The new Surface Pro Signature Keyboard[2] provides storage and charging capability for the new Surface Slim Pen 2, keeping it nearby and ready whenever inspiration strikes. The Surface Pro Signature Keyboard is available complimentary with pre-orders from select partners[3]. The Surface Slim Pen 2 gives the most advanced digital pen experience on a Pro.
