"Microsoft has quietly launched this new model today, following rumours the company was planning to refresh the 'Surface Book 2'," The Verge reported on Sunday.

The software giant discreetly released this new laptop version ahead of its "Surface Event" that is scheduled to take place in New York City on April 17.


The company is expected to detail pricing and availability for its interactive white-board "Surface Hub 2" and associated accessories, the report added.
