Surface Pro 10


Surface Pro 10 blurs the boundary between hardware and software in a lightweight device that weighs less than 900 grams. ​

Microsoft have designed some of the fastest speeds they’ve ever had on a Surface device, with accelerated charging power, lightning-fast transfer files, and the latest Intel Core Ultra processors with Intel AI Boost NPU.

While all Surface devices are versatile, Surface Pro 10 focuses on business versatility. That makes a big difference. Instead of applying everyday functionality to business, Surface lets users apply business functionality every day, to how and where they work, and even why they work. These devices engage people in ways that open doors to new opportunities.​

Surface Pro 10 comes with Windows 11 Pro and up to 19 hours of battery life. Security becomes seamless with the option to purchase a Surface with a built-in NFC reader for passwordless sign-in options and Secured-core PC. Surfaces industry-leading 3:2 display combined with anti-reflective technology delivers sharp, lifelike colors under any light. The PixelSense Flow touchscreen offers an amazing surface, that reacts to the intuitiveness of pen and touch. When you need to connect in meetings, the AI-enhanced, Surface Studio Camera sharpens the visual experience. At the same time, it expands it with an ultrawide field of view, ensuring that everyone gets a seat and is seen at the table. That camera also offers support for Windows Studio Effects such as automatic framing and background blur.

Surface Laptop 6


Surface Laptop 6 removes the boundaries that hold people back from their work. Built for demanding workloads, Surface Laptop 6 offers Intel Core Ultra processors with Intel AI Boost NPU and Windows 11 Pro. It delivers up to 2x faster performance than the previous generation along with up to 19 hours of battery life. An additional USB-C port with Thunderbolt 4 drives lightning-fast transfers and fast-charging power. 

Surfaces industry-leading 3:2 display combined with the PixelSense touchscreen gives more room for people to work. And there’s no more squinting to see what’s on the screen. Anti-reflective technology keeps colors vivid and lifelike, whether indoors or out. 

We all know how important video connections are these days. That’s why Surface has added an AI-enhanced Surface Studio Camera. Working with Windows Studio Effects, it can automatically frame users. It also sharpens the contrast between background blur and the user, so no body parts disappear and reappear from view while interacting on a call. High-quality Studio Mics with voice focus and Omnisonic speakers elevate the audio experience along with AI-enhanced dictation in Microsoft 365 apps. Together, these features offer a totally immersive experience, that makes everyone feel like they’re sharing the same space, right next to each other.

 

Surface Repairability, made easier.


In previous blog posts we’ve touched on the repairability of the Pro 9 and Laptop 5 devices, and how they’ve changed the game, making it so you can repair devices yourself.

Microsoft is making it easier than ever to service and repair its new Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6 devices. By adding QR codes on the internal markings of both of these new devices, alongside internal markings on the Pro 10 to identify screws and driver types for certain components, Microsoft have simplified the repair game.

Pre orders for the new Surface range are available now, so please feel free to reach out to one of our friendly Surface BDMs if have any questions, or if you just want to chat Surface! You’ve got Sarah in Auckland, or me (Joe) based in Christchurch. Always happy to help out.
