Microsoft has decided to drastically raise the prices of its Surface series computers, according to Windows Central. As a result, the flagship models of the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro now cost $1,499 — $500 more than they did at launch in 2024.
The main reason for the price hikes is tied to the global shortage of RAM, which has made it more expensive to manufacture computers.
It’s noteworthy that Microsoft chose to raise prices on its older models when there are strong indications new models will be released within a few months. The move makes Microsoft’s computers now more expensive than Apple’s equivalents.
