Surface Pro 7

Online benchmarks are a good way to see what is coming next in Microsoft’s Surface line, and a few new entries have shown up on Geekbench giving us a preview of what Microsoft is working on.

One device, either the Surface Pro 8 or Surface Laptop 4 (business edition, with Intel processor) has the device code name โ€œOEMWYโ€ย  (similar to other prototype Surface devices in the past) and is powered by the Intelโ€™s 11th-generation Tiger Lake CPU (i7-1185G7).

The Tiger Lake processor features an upgraded โ€œXeโ€ GPU which should deliver much-improved performance compared to the older Ice Lake generation.

Surface Laptop 4 with AMD Renoir

Another device, powered by an AMD processor, is likely the Surface Laptop 4.

That device has the code name โ€œOEMGR OEMGR Product Name DVโ€ claims to have an AMD Ryzen 7 3780U but the Renoir code name betrays the device as actually powered by the newย  โ€œAMD Renoirโ€ processor.

Microsoft’s Surface Pro 8 and Surface Laptop 4 are expected to be largely unchanged except for the upgraded processors and will likely hit the market in H2 2021.
