There are also new mics and speakers included in this year’s refresh. It has a new 13-inch 120Hz display and two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports. Microsoft says that the Surface Pro 8’s camera should perform better under low-light and feature more consistent brightness. The Surface Pro 8 is official with a design just like the Surface Pro X. Other changes include updating its camera to feature a 5-megapixel 1080p front-facing shooter and a 10-megapixel rear-facing camera capable of shooting 1080p and 4K video. The tablet’s PixelSense display has also been updated to feature a 120Hz refresh rate, 10.8 percent higher resolution (2880 x 1920 pixels), is 11 percent larger thanks to its reduced bezels, and is 12.5 percent brighter. For example, Microsoft says that the Surface Pro 8 is two times faster than the Pro 7 and that it delivers 40 percent higher sustained CPU performance and 74 percent faster graphics performance thanks to its 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1185G7/i5-1135G7 chip. The popular 2-in-1 sports a slightly refreshed design that’s more in line with the Surface Pro X, but nearly all of the most significant changes are under the hood. Like clockwork, Microsoft has refreshed its Surface Pro line with the Surface Pro 8.
