Bringing the streamlined performance, simplicity, and security of Windows 10 S (though it can be updated to Windows 10 for free), the Surface Laptop offers a perfect balance of portability, performance, and longevity.
Powered by Windows 10 S, Surface Laptop is engineered to start fast and stay fast with a 7th-generation Intel® Core™ processor and up to 14.5 hours of battery life.
With svelte new form and function in contrast to the classic laptop design, Surface Laptop features a vibrant 13.5” PixelSense display (optimized for touch and inking for an immersive experience), along with optically bonded gorilla glass for extra durability. The signature keyboard is also covered in luxurious Alcantara fabric and features a quiet and responsive keyset, large precision trackpad and soft palm rest for a new level of typing comfort.

Surface Pro
Microsoft’s newly unveiled Surface Pro is not only packing some serious power, but it’s also lighter than the bag you’ll carry it in.
Unveiled in Shanghai, the latest addition to the Surface family pushes design, engineering and performance to the limit, with a whole host of improvements and upgrades that’ll have tech fans drooling.
The new 12.3in Surface Pro is more than 2.5 times faster than the Surface Pro 3, despite its leaner 8.5mm-thin body and 0.7kg weight, and it throws in 50% more endurance to boot, boasting an impressive 13.5 hours of battery life.
In addition to the new Surface Pro, Microsoft also revealed an all-new Surface Pen which is twice as fast as the previous version, with 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity for the most accurate on-screen Pen experience available, alongside a new tilt functionality, which allows for a natural and comfortable shading experience.
The Surface Dial is also supported – both on and off the new Surface Pro’s screen, unlocking a set of useful digital tools to increase productivity and encouraging a seamless workflow.
Surface Pro is available from today in:
