Microsoft teases Surface Laptop 4 arrival for the first time

We recently saw Microsoft revealing its own upcoming Surface Laptop 4 on some of its support pages on the website. Now, the firm has finally dropped the first teaser for the new Surface lineup. The teaser comes in the form of a video that doesn’t give a lot about what’s there to come and what all devices will be included in the upcoming Surface lineup. But it does show a bunch of shots showing the current gen Surface laptop and clips from the launch event. But what really gives away that a new line of Surface laptops is on its way, is the text along with the video “There’s more to come… stay tuned.” and the text in the end of the video “More to come.”

Although not much has been revealed, the support pages spotted recently did reveal that the Surface Laptop 4 will arrive in two versions based on Intel and AMD SoCs.

For instance, the AMD support page states “Cumulative and current drivers and firmware for the Surface Laptop 4 with AMD Processor. This package contains drivers for all of the components in the Surface Laptop 4 with AMD Processor, as well as updates to the system firmware that have been released via Windows Update. The driver MSI files include all of the drivers and firmware needed to deploy custom images of Windows on your Surface devices.” It also adds “Surface Laptop 4 with AMD Processor required for compatibility with these drivers. These drivers and firmware are compatible with Windows 10, including Enterprise versions.”

A separate report from Winfuture from last month stated that Microsoft may use AMD 4000 Series processors including the Ryzen 5 4680U and the Ryzen 7 4980U. This is one generation up from 3000 Series that were used in Surface Laptop 3. For Intel models, the laptop could have 11th-gen chips like the Core 15-1145G7 and the Core i7-1185G7.

The design of the Surface Laptop 4 is said to be nearly the same as the Surface Laptop 3. Some rumoured specs include 13.5-inch and 15-inch models, 32GB of RAM, 1TB storage and same 3:2 aspect ratio.
