They unveiled their updated Surface Pro 7, 13-inch and 15-inch Surface Laptop 3, an ARM-powered ultra-slim Surface Pro X and, last but not least, two dual-screen devices named Surface Neo and Surface Duo that are not expected until Holiday 2020.

Microsoft's Surface launch event is notable for a number of reasons. The company is now a major player in the premium devices category.

Since its inception, Surface has pointed the way for Microsoft partners by providing the blueprint for creating devices that work best with its operating system, software, and services solutions. This time around, we're seeing Surface challenge industry leaders like Apple, Lenovo, Dell, and HP with premium products that are truly innovative and worth watching for.

More importantly, with the introduction of Surface Neo and Surface Duo, Microsoft is defining new product categories in the ultraportable computing and mobile space.
