The rumors are true. Microsoft is launching Intel-powered versions of its Surface Pro 11 and Surface Laptop 7. Available on February 18th, both of these new Surface devices are Copilot Plus PCs, but instead of using Qualcomm’s Arm-based Snapdragon X series of chips, they’ll use Intel’s Lunar Lake processors.

For business buyers, last year's opening salvo of AI-ready PCs was a nonstarter due to compatibility issues with Qualcomm's processors. Those Surface Pro and Surface Laptop devices will soon be available with Intel's Lunar Lake processors.
