CTOnews.com, Aug. 1, according to Windows Central, Microsoft plans to release Surface Laptop "3", a laptop aimed at the affordable market, at the Surface event this fall. It is reported that the new device will be equipped with the 12th generation Intel processor, which will provide more memory and storage space, but will also increase the price accordingly, while the design and size will remain the same.

The previous generation of Surface Laptop "3", Surface Laptop Go 2, caused controversy because its minimum version had only 4GB memory, which was not enough to run Windows 11 and modern Internet applications. The new Surface Laptop "3" will remove this configuration, and the minimum configuration will be equipped with a 12th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB memory and 256GB solid-state drives (128GB solid-state drives are the minimum for Surface Laptop Go 2). However, it also means that the entry-level price will no longer be $599, but between $699 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 5005 yuan) to $749 (currently about 5363 yuan), the same as the current 8GB version.

Upgrading from 11th-generation Intel processors to 12th-generation Intel processors will bring better battery life to the Surface Laptop "3" and artificial intelligence-based features such as Voice Clarity and Voice Focus, which are currently available only on computers equipped with neural network processing units or NPU.

With the exception of the processor, memory and storage space, all other aspects of the new machine will remain the same, with no new interfaces, screen improvements, or keyboard / trackpad changes. It means there will be no backlit keyboard, which is a big complaint of Surface Laptop Go users.
