At the Microsoft Fall 2022 Event, the latest series of Surface computing products was officially announced. One of them is the Microsoft Surface Pro 9 2-in-1 PC .

Fitur Microsoft Surface Pro 9

Surface Pro 9 at first glance still looks similar to the previous generation Surface Pro 8 . The screen still carries the 13-inch PixelSense Flow Display technology with a resolution of 2880 x 1920 pixels. The screen supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and is reinforced with a layer of Gorilla Glass 5. Meanwhile, the body carries aluminum material with four color choices. These include Platinum, Graphite, Sapphire, and Forest.

The most significant update of the Surface Pro 9 is in the performance sector. The Surface Pro 9 is now powered by a 12th Gen Intel Core processor. Processor options available up to Intel Core i7-1255U. The processor is supported by up to 32GB of RAM and an SSD with a capacity of up to 1TB. With these specifications, the Surface Pro 9 offers a performance increase of up to about 50% when compared to the Surface Pro 8.

Interestingly, Microsoft will also provide a model that uses an SQ3 processor. This ARM-based chipset is also supported with 5G connectivity and NPU (Neural Processing Unit). The NPU offers better camera and audio capabilities with artificial intelligence support. This feature will not be found on models with Intel processors.

For battery life, the Surface Pro 9 with an Intel processor promises to use up to about 15.5 hours. Meanwhile, the model with the SQ3 chipset has a longer battery life of up to about 19 hours.
