As promised we have a full round-up of Microsoft's Fall 2022 event that took place yesterday afternoon! As the name suggests, the event was focused on Surface products in its entirety. Featuring a new Surface Studio model, a new 2-in-1 Tablet and new laptop. Below we've featured everything and outlined the new features in each. 

Surface Studio 2+

By far the most exciting in my personal opinion, is the new Surface Studio 2+. In 2016, the OG Surface Studio was released and became the ideal all-in-one PC for creators. Well now the Studio 2+ has been announced, and whilst it won't be any bigger in its display size and the design is fairly similar, it boasts new features on the inside that make it much more of an improvement from the Studio 2 that released in 2018. Sticking to a 28" inch 3:2 display with a 4500 x 3000 resolution and 32GB of DDR4 RAM, with the option of 1TB storage, the Studio 2+ features the same Zero Gravity hinge that allows for diverse angles to avoid glare or annoying reflections. This makes it able to use for long periods of time should you need to. Despite the Surface Studio 2 being very responsive, the Studio 2+ will be twice as fast. This is due to an updated Intel Core H-35 processor and Microsoft has also announced confirmation of including an NVIDIA Ge Force RTX 3060 GPU, which will offer an insane amount of performance on the graphics side of things. You can also expect the display to be capable of showcasing 1 billion colours and much more improved gradients with its Auto Colour Management system. The upgrades don't stop there either as it will feature Dolby Atmos stereo speakers, making this a great PC for television or if you fancy blasting out some tunes whilst getting on with your work. Windows 11, the latest flagship operating system from Microsoft will be pre-installed and will be updated automatically with any new updates in the future. Now for the important question, the price. Well, nothing is official on that front just yet, but the Studio 2 was priced at £2000 upon release, so expect a similar price tag that could and will most likely be more.

The Surface Laptop 5 was also announced during today's Surface Event. The latest iteration of the Surface Laptop offers a PixelSense touchscreen display with an option to either buy it in 13.5-inches or 15-inches. The 13.5-inch model offers a resolution of 2256 x 1504, while the 15-inch offers a 2496 x 1664 display. And like the Surface Pro 9, both models of the Surface Laptop 5 include a 10-point multi-touch. The 12th Gen Intel Core processors are available for Surface Pro with an option of i5 or i7. Memory options include up to 32Gb of LPDDR5x RAM and three removable SSD storage options: 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. Microsoft touts that the Surface Laptop 5 promises all-day battery life, and it now includes support for Thunderbolt 4. According to Microsoft, the Surface Laptop 5 is over 50 percent more powerful than its predecessor.

Surface Pro 9

Moving on to the Surface Pro 9, which as you can see by the picture has the choice of three colours, takes over from last year's Surface Pro 8. The Surface Pro 9 offers a 13-inch PixelSense Flow display with a 2880 x 1920 resolution and a dynamic refresh rate of up to 120Hz. The Surface Pro 9 includes two CPU options: 12th Gen Intel Core or a Microsoft SQ3 processor, the latter is an ARM processor that offers 5G support. Depending on the CPU you choose, the Surface Pro 9 with the Intel processor has a battery life of up to 15.5 hours, while the Surface Pro 9 with 5G support offers up to 19 hours of battery on a single charge. The two variants of the Surface Pro 9 have different RAM configuration options, with the non-5G variant offering 8GB, 16GB, or 32GB of LPDDR5 RAM, while the 5G model offers LPDDR4x RAM in just two options: 8GB and 16GB. Storage options also differ slightly, as both the 5G and non-5G models offer 128GB, 256Gb, and 512GB of removable SSD storage, but the non-5G model offers a 1TB option.
