Microsoft is set to sell a Surface Laptop equipped with 5G. The device is a variant of the previously launched Surface 7 with Intel onboard.
Microsoft brings 5G to its line-up of Surface Laptops. Specifically, the company is incorporating 5G connectivity into the Surface Laptop 7. This device was launched earlier this year. The laptop is equipped with Intel Core Ultra 5 or Ultra 7 Series 2 processors and has 16 GB or 32 GB of RAM onboard. It should not be confused with the similarly named laptop with ARM-based Qualcomm Snapdragon X onboard.
The 5G version of the Surface Laptop 7 with Intel onboard features additional antennas to support connectivity. According to Microsoft, these antennas are positioned higher than in similar devices to enable a better connection. Connection can be made with a nanoSIM or simply with eSIM.
Price and availability
For now, Microsoft seems only to plan to bring 5G to the Intel-based laptops as part of the line-up specifically aimed at business use. In the US, the additional cost of the 5G module is 300 dollars, raising the price of the base model of the laptop from 1,499 dollars to 1,799 dollars.
In Europe, the laptop will be available from early September. The recommended price for the base model with an Intel Core Ultra 5, 16 GB RAM, and 256 GB storage is 1,742.32 euros. The top model with an Intel Core Ultra 7, 32 GB RAM, and 512 GB storage costs 2,635.58 euros. Both prices are excluding VAT.
