Microsoft Surface Book 3 would be the newest addition to the surface family, and people are looking forward to this machine because it is expected to come with the latest innovations, improvements, and special features.

Like its predecessors, the Microsoft Surface Book 3 will also be competing in the high-end market so it will be packed with things that most laptop users need and want. It may come with the same look, but definitely, it will be fitted with new materials and hardware specifications.

Specifications: Dubbed as the gaming laptop

It was said that the Surface 3 will be the best option for gaming. It was noted that the machine shows signs that it will be a good choice for gamers because it has most of the things needed for a good gaming experience.

For instance, Microsoft Surface 3 is predicted to still have the Surface 2’s Nvidia’s GeForce GTX1050, or this may be upgraded to the latest version of the said graphics processing unit. With this, gamers can enjoy amazing graphical support that makes playing more alive.

Moreover, Surface 3 may use Intel’s Ice Lake processor and graphics cards from AMD to bring incredible performance and power to the latest games and gamers. The next Surface Laptop might come in an AMD version powered by a Picasso 12nm SoC.

Qualcomm’s 8CX chipsets may also appear in Microsoft Surface Book 3 to offer 5G ready chip for Windows 10 devices. This laptop may be sold in 13.5-inch and 15-inch sizes and likely to be fitted with Thunderbolt 3 in addition to USB-C ports for faster data transfer speeds.

Price and release date

Microsoft Surface Book 3 prices may start at $1,499 for 13.5-inch screen, and bigger models may cost up to $2,299. This is worth it because it comes with Nvidia graphics, Core i7 processor and big storage of up to 16GB of RAM and 256 GB. Based on predictions, this laptop is arriving this fall since the two-in-one foldable Surface Book 2 was launched around the same time in 2017, so the chances for this date are high.
