Microsoft introduces cheaper Surface devices with half the memory

微软推出内存减半的廉价版 Surface 设备

The 12-inch Surface Pro now starts at $849, while the 13-inch Surface Laptop costs $949 and up. Both start with 8GB of RAM instead of 16GB. 12 英寸 Surface Pro 起售价现为 849 美元,而 13 英寸 Surface Laptop 起售价为 949 美元。两款设备的基础内存均从 16GB 降至 8GB。

Microsoft just added a cheaper 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface Laptop to its lineup. Both models come equipped with 8GB of RAM instead of 16GB, costing $849 for the specced-down Surface Pro and $949 for the Surface Laptop, as spotted earlier by Windows Central. 微软刚刚在其产品阵容中增加了更便宜的 12 英寸 Surface Pro 和 13 英寸 Surface Laptop。正如 Windows Central 此前报道的那样,这两款机型均配备了 8GB 内存(而非 16GB),其中配置缩减后的 Surface Pro 售价为 849 美元,Surface Laptop 售价为 949 美元。

When the 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface Laptop launched in 2025, the base configurations offered 16GB of RAM and 256GB of USF storage, for $799 and $899, respectively. But in April 2026, Microsoft hiked the prices to $1,049 and $1,199. The memory crunch has also resulted in a higher base price for Microsoft’s newest Surface models. 当 12 英寸 Surface Pro 和 13 英寸 Surface Laptop 于 2025 年发布时,其基础配置提供 16GB 内存和 256GB USF 存储空间,售价分别为 799 美元和 899 美元。但在 2026 年 4 月,微软将价格分别上调至 1,049 美元和 1,199 美元。内存规格的缩减也导致了微软最新 Surface 机型的起售价水涨船高。

Other than slashing device memory in half, Microsoft hasn’t changed any other specs on the more affordable Surface Pro and Surface Laptop. They still come with the same 8-core Snapdragon X Plus chip and 256GB of storage, but won’t offer support for Copilot Plus, Microsoft’s built-in AI tech that requires at least 16GB of RAM. 除了将设备内存减半外,微软并未更改这两款更实惠的 Surface Pro 和 Surface Laptop 的其他规格。它们依然搭载相同的 8 核 Snapdragon X Plus 芯片和 256GB 存储空间,但不支持 Copilot Plus——这是微软内置的 AI 技术,要求至少 16GB 内存。

Even with the price decrease, the 8GB Surface devices are still more expensive than the $599 MacBook Neo, which has disrupted the laptop space with its speedy performance and affordable price tag. 尽管价格有所下调,但 8GB 内存的 Surface 设备仍然比 599 美元的 MacBook Neo 更贵,后者凭借其出色的性能和亲民的价格,已经对笔记本电脑市场造成了冲击。
