Here's everything we know about Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra

Earlier this year, Microsoft teased the Surface Laptop Ultra, describing it as "the most powerful thing we've ever made." And while we know some details about it including its super bright MiniLED display and NVIDIA RTX Spark chip, other specs have been hard to come by. But today at an event in San Francisco, Microsoft finally gave us a closer look at its upcoming flagship notebook.

Now before we go any further, it's important to highlight that the Surface Laptop Ultra will be a very beefy system, so buying one simply to browse the web, edit videos or even game on it will be overkill. This machine is more for developers and AI researchers than your typical PC user and to help drive that point home, Microsoft describes the Surface Laptop Ultra as a "builder class PC."

The Surface Laptop Ultra comes standard with a 15-inch Mini-LED PixelSense Ultra touchscreen with a 3:2 aspect ratio and up to a whopping 2,000 nits of peak brightness. It also has a huge haptic touchpad that Microsoft says is 30 percent larger than what you get on typical 15-inch Surface notebook along with a ton of ports including USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, 3.5mm audio and a full-size SD card reader. However, the most interesting new port is what Microsoft is calling Magnetic Connect, which combines the speed and convenience of magnetic charging with a traditional USB-C jack while still transmitting power, video and data.

When it comes to performance, the Surface Laptop Ultra is based around NVIDIA's RTX Spark chip and will support up to 128GB of unified memory and is capable of pushing up to one petaflop of FP4 AI compute.
