The new Surface Studio 2+ arrives with almost the same design and appearance as 2018’s Surface studio. However, it features some changes in the internal hardware.

It is powered by a quad-core 35W Intel Core i7-11370H chip, which is basically the same CPU that was packed inside the Surface Laptop Studio. In addition, it comes with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, which is an upgrade from the GTX 1070.

As mentioned, the Surface Studio 2+ comes with almost the same display as its predecessor. It has the same 28-inch PixelSense display, which offers a 4,500 x 3,000-pixel resolution and a 60 Hz refresh rate. While its display dimensions are identical to the previous model, Studio 2+ does come with a thinner base. However, it still weighs over 9 kg.
