Whether using a Surface Slim Pen or touch controls on the Surface Laptop, Cocreator adapts and learns in real-time to turn ideas into visuals.
Another significant addition is Live Captions, which provides real-time translation of audio and video content. This feature, previously available on Windows, helps users understand content in different languages, making it easier to follow international shows or participate in multilingual meetings.
For audio and video enhancements, the Surface Pro includes an advanced camera with a wide-angle lens and 4K video recording capabilities. The Surface Laptop features AI-enhanced audio with Dolby Atmos and Studio Mics, designed to improve sound clarity and depth.
