A few Microsoft support pages appear for the unannounced Surface Laptop 4, indicating that a launch may be imminent. One is a placeholder for an AMD version of the laptop, while the other is an Intel model. Both were noticed by WalkingCat, an often reliable source of device leaks, which suggests that we may have a Surface event next week.
The Microsoft Support Page does not provide much more details about the laptop, but a report from WinFuture last month fill in the details. The AMD processors used apparently come from the 4000 mobile range, and will include the Ryzen 5 4680U and the Ryzen 7 4980U. It’s a step higher than the 3000 series chips used in the 2019 Surface Laptop 3, but anyone hoping to see AMD’s brand new Ryzen 5000 mobile processors here may be disappointed.
On the Intel side, WinFuture note that we should see 11th generation chips like the Core 15-1145G7 and the Core i7-1185G7.

Otherwise, the specifications and form factor of the Surface Laptop 4 are apparently broadly in line with previous models. There will apparently be 13.5 and 15-inch models available, with a maximum of 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. Their screens should maintain the excellent 3: 2 aspect ratio.
Microsoft has yet to make any official announcements about when its new laptops could be launched, but if the support pages are already available, it may not be far off.
