However, the Surface Pro remained unchanged over time, boasting the same design since the first model rolled out. The future Microsoft Surface Pro 7 2-in1 device could come out with a revamped design, USB-C, and many more. Let’s see what the upcoming Surface Pro 7 might bring.

First, you should know that we don’t have any official information from Microsoft regarding its future Surface Pro 2-in-1 device, so everything presented here comes from rumors. Thus, take everything with a grain of salt until Microsoft comes out with some official details about the Microsoft Surface Pro 7.
