Microsoft’s Surface Pro is fine, but it isn’t the AI device to change personal computing

When Microsoft announced its new line of Windows PCs in May, the company said the computers were “designed for AI” with new chips from Qualcomm that are more energy efficient than previous Intel processors.
Among the first of the devices - called Copilot+ PCs - to hit the market is a Surface Pro convertible tablet. It can handle heftier computing tasks and boasts a longer battery life than laptops with Intel processors. It’s a similar strategy to what Apple embarked on in 2020 when it started shipping custom energy-sipping Arm-based chips into its MacBooks, a move that has proved hugely successful.
But what Microsoft has ultimately released with the Surface Pro amounts to a nice upgrade over its predecessor. To think it’s ushering in a new era of AI computing is a bit farfetched. At least for now.
The Surface line of computers doesn’t drive a big business for Microsoft. The company reported $1.07 billion in device revenue, including from Surface PCs, in the first quarter, a small slice of its total $61.86 billion in revenue.
I’ve been reviewing the Surface Pro for two weeks. Here’s what you need to know about it.
