Microsoft is allegedly planning to debut the Surface Pro 8 in the worldwide market next week at its Surface event, after the introduction of the Surface Pro 7+ earlier this year, Microsoft has been reportedly working on a new 2-in-1 with a faster refresh rate display, so it appears Apple is not the only business introducing products with a 120Hz display. This is the first laptop to include a 120Hz display and thunderbolt port, according to leaks, and a retail banner.
Sam (@Shadow Leak), a tipster on Twitter who previously released a photograph of the shop banner, provided the leak. Ahead of its formal debut, the tipster revealed some of the forthcoming Microsoft device’s main features. You can see the tweet in full down below.

On the basis of leaked certification pictures, the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 had previously been rumored to feature a 12.3-inch display size. However, a recent rumor says that the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 would have a bigger 13-inch panel with a refresh rate of 120Hz. As per the tipster, the upcoming Microsoft device may also have two Thunderbolt connections, an 11th-generation Intel Core CPU, and detachable SSD storage.
The display of the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is significantly different from that on the Surface Pro 7. As predicted, the new model is powered by the new 11th Gen Tiger Lake processor and is likely to be offered in several SKUs, beginning from Core i3 and up to Core i7 on the high-end variant with the Intel Iris Xe graphics.
Dual Thunderbolt-4 USB Type-C ports are also expected on the laptop, allowing users to connect a wide range of peripherals, including external high-resolution displays, to the Microsoft Surface Pro 8. The RAM will most likely be attached to the motherboard via solder, although the gadget does provide a user-replaceable/upgradeable SSD storage option.
Microsoft has announced that the Surface Pro 8 will arrive with Windows 11 when it launches later this year. The Microsoft Surface Pro 8 is likely to come with Windows 11 Pro, which will include new security features including BitLocker device encryption and Windows information protection technologies (WIP).
Accessories like external keyboards and styluses are still sold separately, just like with prior Surface Pro versions. Several colors and finishes are expected to be offered for these items. When compared to comparable laptops in this price range, the computer offers a wide range of customization options.
