Kerry Wan/ZDNETMicrosoft is refreshing several Surface models with a greater focus on enterprising users. The changes the company is introducing aren’t anything we haven’t seen before, but they are notable upgrades that improve usability. While price points remain up in the air, we do know when the new enterprise models are expected to roll out.On September 26, the tech giant is launching new versions of the Surface Pro 10 and Surface Pro 11th Edition that are capable of running on T-Mobile’s 5G network. With it, you won’t have to worry about not having connectivity or being unable to show teammates the project you’re working on outside the office. 5G support allows users to enjoy high-speed internet wherever they go. Of course, all the features that make these devices great are making a return. Also: How to use Microsoft Copilot (formerly called Bing Chat)The Surface Pro 10 will still be powered by an Intel Ultra Core processor, ensuring “versatility [and] fast performance.” The glass remains covered in an anti-reflective coating for better outdoor visibility, and the device is rated to have a 14-hour battery life.The Surface Pro 11 is part of the Copilot+ PC series, much like the consumer-level model. This means the computer runs on Qualcomm’s hardware, including your choice of either the Snapdragon X Elite or the X Plus chipset. The hardware’s neural processing unit (NPU for short) powers several AI features, such as eliminating background noise in calls and improving video call clarity.If you don’t plan on traveling with the Surface Pro, Microsoft will also be selling a Wi-Fi-only option a little earlier on September 10.
