The resale confirmed The Verge The fact that Microsoft has stopped production and would continue to provide software and controllers for Surface Laptop Studio 2.

Surface Laptop Studio 2 is displayed on silent pastures, like other devices that the company has sunset. Surface Studio, a desktop computer that consisted of a imaginative drawing studio, was Formally interrupted in December Without a successor. Microsoft audio products, 2 surface headphones and surface headphones have also disappeared quietly.

Facing in Surface Laptop Studio takes place at a foggy time for the Surface brand. On the one hand, two up-to-date devices-12-inch Surface Pro laptop and surface laptop-just announced and will be released next week. On the other hand, the composition lost his master, former head of Panos Panay, who left Microsoft to Amazon in 2023, apparently due to budget problems and cancellation of products. Panay replaced Pavan Davuluri.

Since Panay’s departure, the composition has been cut off on a laptop, Surface Pro and Surface Go 4, of which the latter is currently sold only to business clients.

Without Surface Laptop Studio, Microsoft removed systems with a circumspect GPU from its hardware offer, potentially alienating creativity and players. Before Surface Laptop Studio Microsoft Powerhouse System was Surface Book, which connected a tablet with a base with a circumspect graphic processor.

In addition to raw power, Surface Laptop Studio and Surface Book were also quite unique designs that tried to push the system designs forward. CLAMSHELL laptops are table rates, and many OEM manufacturers offer their own versions of the Surface Pro tablet. It seems that Microsoft is experimenting less and focuses more on what he knows is already working.

Microsoft also improves other areas, including its own working strength. This week, the company reduced about 6,000 employees, or about 3% of the workforce. The company also focuses more on artificial intelligence (in Windows and elsewhere) and places its Xbox Studios games in other systems such as PlayStation 5.
