Microsoft has announced the new Surface Pro 7, and with it comes with the move to USB-C for the company’s 2-in-1 PC. Otherwise, it retains the same familiar design as before. The internals have been upgraded, but the Surface Pro still has a 12.3-inch display and the Surface Type Keyboard and Surface Pen continue to be essential accessories. The Surface Pro 7 will launch on October 22nd starting at $749.
Other products, including the Surface Go, have already integrated USB-C, but Microsoft waited the longest with its Surface Pro. The USB-C port takes the place of the Mini DisplayPort found on previous models, which allowed Microsoft to stick with its proprietary Surface Connector on the Surface Pro 7.
The Surface Pro 7 is powered by Intel’s 10th Gen processors, and it can be configured in a range of options with dual-core i3 or quad-core i5 and i7 processors. The base model starts with 128GB of storage and 4GB of RAM, but you can customize the Surface Pro 7 to include up to 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM.
