As you can see, Microsoft has released a teaser that clearly reveals the Surface logo, apparently, in the shape of a processor. It hints at some new addition to the Surface line-up - with a different processor altogether. However, Microsoft hasn't revealed any concrete details yet. The Verge notes Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and chief product officer Panos Panay will likely attend this event. Nadella did not participate in last year's Surface event where Microsoft upgraded Surface Pro and Surface Laptop line-up. Last year, Microsoft also launched Surface Studio 2 and new Surface Headphones.
