However, there may be an upgrade to the Surface Dock 2, which is more suited to older hardware as it lacks Thunderbolt 4 support. There won't be much change to the physical design of Surface Pro hardware in 2022, as the Surface Pro 8 was a big change and Microsoft likes to keep its basic form factors stable for long enough to allow partners to deliver cases and other accessories. While the Surface Laptop Go 2 is rumoured to be due in May, I suspect that Microsoft may hold off in order to avoid a collision with Build (24-26 May) and tie in a launch with the 10th anniversary of the Surface's announcement (18 June). The most obvious next move is an update to the Surface Laptop Go. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
