Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra Engineering Unit Features NVIDIA RTX Spark Arm SoC with 20 CPU Cores and 6144

An unreleased Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra engineering unit has been exposed, powered by an NVIDIA RTX Spark Arm SoC with 20 CPU cores and 6144 GPU cores. Under an 80W PL1 power limit, it scored 1386 points in Cinebench 2024 multi-core and 123 points single-core, underperforming the Apple M5 Pro and some x86 platforms. The device suffers from early prototype issues including regular crashes every hour, high temperatures (CPU up to 100°C, GPU 90°C), and increased standby power after a driver update. GPU performance remains consistent on battery and plugged in.

Apple Launches Hardware Rental Plan 'Apple Upgrade' with Klarna

On July 28, 2026, Apple launched the 'Apple Upgrade' hardware rental program in the United States in partnership with buy-now-pay-later provider Klarna. The plan covers iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac, and iPad at Apple retail and online stores, with terms from 12 to 36 months after a soft credit check. Monthly rentals start at $17.99 for iPhone, $11.99 for Apple Watch, $24.99 for MacBook Air, and $11.99 for iPad Air. Unlocked iPhone 17 Pro costs $31.99 per month over two years or $45.99 over one year. No deposit is required, and Klarna does not charge late fees, but contracts are terminated after three consecutive missed payments. Apple is discontinuing the iPhone Upgrade Program and migrating existing users to the new plan.
