Windows Central sources say the new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop will launch in mid-January. The devices are expected to feature Intel 11th-generation processors with Intel Iris Xe graphics. And once again, the Surface Laptop will have AMD option.
This year Microsoft's holiday season lineup is headed by its Surface devices with Arm architecture processors, which consist of new Surface Pro X 2-in-1s with a touchscreen from $1,500, featuring the Microsoft- and Qualcomm-co-designed SQ2 processor.
There is also a new, compact Surface Laptop Go. Starting at $550 with an Intel 10th generation i5 Quad-Core-based, it is billed by Microsoft as the 'most affordable Surface laptop yet'.
Microsoft's tweaked release schedule perhaps isn't surprising given that this year its Windows on Arm Surface devices are going head to head with Apple's highly praised Macs with the new Arm-based Apple Silicon M1 processors.

The Macs with an M1 processor include the MacBook Air that starts at $999, the Mac mini that starts at $699, and the 13-inch MacBook Pro from $1,299.
At a $1500 starting price for the Surface Pro X 2s with SQ2 processors, Microsoft's Arm-based Surfaces will face stiff competition from Apple's M1 options.
