What you need to know

  • Microsoft will hold a Surface event within the next week, according to a leak.
  • The event will occur on September 30 or October 1.
  • The event could include the announcement of a new Surface Pro X.

While we don't know what will be announced at the event, we could potentially see the announcement of a Surface Pro X with a Microsoft SQ2 chip and Microsoft's midrange Surface Laptop. Both of those devices will reportedly launch in the October timeframe, so an announcement on September 30 or October 1 would make sense.

Regardless of the exact date, it appears that Microsoft's fall Surface event is only a couple of weeks away, so we shouldn't have to wait long to see more Surface hardware.
