Microsoft unveiled the next generation of Surface laptops at its "special event" in New York City Thursday: the Surface Laptop Studio 2 and the Surface Laptop Go 3. Both of them are now available for preorder in the Microsoft Store and at Best Buy ahead of their October debut.

The new Surface Laptop Studio 2, Microsoft's "most powerful Surface yet," replaces the Mashable Choice Award-winning Surface Laptop Studio from 2021 and retains the same unique pull-forward, 14.4-inch PixelSense Flow touchscreen display. It's powered by a 13th-gen Intel Core i7 H-class processor with Intel Iris Xe or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, 4060, or RTX 2000 GPUs, and it features the first-ever Intel Neural Processing Unit (NPU) in a Windows computer. It also comes with a couple more ports and a new haptic touchpad that's billed as the "most inclusive touchpad on any laptop." You can squeeze up to 19 hours of battery life out of it.

The Surface Laptop Studio 2 will start at $1,999.99 with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage (configurable up to 64GB of RAM and 2TB SSD). That's $400 more than its predecessor's base model, but double the storage capacity.

Meanwhile, the new Surface Laptop Go 3 is a cheaper, more portable notebook with a 12.4-inch PixelSense touchscreen display that succeeds last year's Surface Laptop Go 2, upgrading it with a faster 12th-gen Intel Core i5 processor and a 15-hour battery life (up from 13.5 hours). Otherwise, it has the same meager port selection, 720p webcam, and color variants.
