Surface Pro 8 listing leaks online as Microsoft gears up for unveiling this week

Microsoft fans are eagerly anticipating the new Surface Pro 8 tablet ahead of a launch event next week.

Twitter account Shadow_Leak has tweeted what’s supposedly a retail listing of the tablet.

The tweet claims to show a photo of the Surface Pro 8.

It also says the tablet will have a 13-inch 120Hz display.

A slim screen border and two Thunderbolt ports are also mentioned.

The leaker also states they’ll be “Replaceable SSD Hard Drives”.


As with all rumours and leaks, we won’t know much about the Surface 8 Pro for sure until we get official word from Microsoft.

The tech giant is having a Surface hardware event on September 22, where a host of gadgets are expected to be announced.

Surface Pro 8 – what is it?

The Surface Pro 8 is the rumoured next device in Microsoft’s popular Surface Pro line up.

The gizmos are ostensibly tablets that, by plugging in a keyboard, can also be made to work like a Windows laptop.

Microsoft launched the series in 2013 and the company has released seven iterations so far, eight if you include the Surface Pro 7+.

The line up is typically updated annually in October – all signs point to Microsoft following the same pattern this year.

As far as price goes, we don’t know anything concrete for now. It’ll likely follow a similar pattern to the Surface Pro 7.

That starts at $749/£799 for a Core i3, 4GB RAM, and a 128GB SSD, rising to $2,299.99/£2,249 for a Core i7, 16GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD.
