Two days before its launch . Surface Pro 8 leaks

Microsoft is gearing up to launch a new Surface Pro 8 model next week, and a leak seems to reveal what to expect.

The Shadow_Leak Twitter account posted a picture of the device from what appeared to be a retail listing.

The account claims that the device features a new 13-inch screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, narrow bezels on both sides, and two Thunderbolt ports.

Reports earlier this month state that the device lacks USB-A ports, which are being replaced by USB-C and Thunderbolt ports.

This is the first time Microsoft has supported Thunderbolt on any Surface device, following security concerns, paving a new avenue for gaming via external GPUs, among many other use cases.

The information also mentioned that Microsoft is testing screens with a refresh rate of 120Hz for the Surface Po series. The leaked image and specs are consistent with the information released in precedence.

The leak also reveals that Microsoft is moving to removable SSDs via the device. This matches the Surface Laptop 4 and Surface Pro X and makes it easier for businesses to swap drives.
