The new low-cost microsoft surface will come with a pentium processor

We already know that Microsoft is working on the development of a new Microsoft Surface device much cheaper than the current ones, there is talk that it will be priced at 400 euros, which will involve some necessary sacrifices.

The 400-euro Microsoft Surface will come with an Intel Pentium Silver processor and without the included keyboard

This new cheaper Microsoft Surface device will come with a 10-inch screen, of which we do not know the resolution, but it could be 1080p to lower the cost compared to a panel with a higher pixel density. What, if it has been known now, is that those of Redmond will bet on a humble processor to reduce the price of the device.

This means that the new Microsoft Surface device will arrive in several variants with Intel Pentium processors. There is talk that the starting model will include a Pentium Silver N5000 chip, which is formed by a configuration of 4 cores and 4 processing threads at a Base / Turbo frequency of 1.10 / 2.70 GHz, next to it we will find the Intel UHD graphics Graphics 605. There is also talk of the possible arrival of a second variant with a Pentium Gold processor and a slightly higher price.

These processors are less powerful than the Core i3, although they still offer very good performance for all the usual day-to-day tasks. Finally, it is mentioned that the device would come without the keyboard, this if that is a very important negative point, which will force us to spend more money extra.

What do you think of the arrival of a 400-euro Microsoft Surface with an Intel Pentium Silver and without the included keyboard? Do you think the keyboard should already be included in the pack?
