Microsoft has sent out invitations for a special event on September 21st, 2023 that will take place in New York City. The event will kick off at 11am Eastern Time and will be livestreamed on Microsoft’s website.
While Microsoft has not revealed any details about what will be announced, there are several rumors circulating about potential new devices and services. Here’s a look at what we might see at the September 21st Microsoft event:
Surface Go 4
The Surface Go line is Microsoft’s affordable tablet offering. The Surface Go 3 was released in 2021, so the Surface Go 4 is due for an update. Rumors suggest the new Surface Go will have a faster Intel processor, more RAM and storage options, and improved battery life. The portability and tablet functionality of the Surface Go make it perfect for media consumption and lightweight productivity.
Surface Laptop Studio 2
The Surface Laptop Studio debuted in 2021 as a unique 2-in-1 device with a pull-forward display. Leaks point to a second generation Laptop Studio with upgrades like 13th Gen Intel Core processors and an improved hinge mechanism. The Laptop Studio 2 could be an excellent choice for creators and professionals needing power and versatility.
Surface Laptop Go 3
Due for a refresh is Microsoft’s affordable ultra-portable, the Surface Laptop Go. Expect updated internals like 12th Gen Intel Core chips, as well as the addition of a Full HD webcam. The lightweight Surface Laptop Go 3 should retain its budget-friendly starting price.
Surface Pro 8
The Surface Pro 8 just launched in 2021, but an updated model with a larger 14-inch or 15-inch display could arrive soon. This would make the Surface Pro 8 a more capable 2-in-1 for getting work done. Other rumored upgrades include 13th Gen Intel processors and Thunderbolt 4 support.
Surface Duo 3
A successor to the dual-screen Surface Duo 2 has been rumored for later this year. The Surface Duo 3 could have 5G support, improved cameras, and an updated hinge. We may get more details on Microsoft’s Android-powered device at the September event.
Surface Headphones 3
Microsoft’s over-ear wireless headphones may also see an upgraded model this fall. Improved sound quality, added noise cancellation modes, and new color options are some of the rumored features of the Surface Headphones 3.
Of course, Microsoft could have some completely new products or services planned for the event. Either way, September 21st is shaping up to be an exciting day for fans of Surface and Microsoft hardware. Stay tuned for official details from Microsoft as the event approaches.
