In addition to the Surface Pro and Surface Laptop, Microsoft announced a crop of Copilot Plus PCs from all the major OEMs. Here are all the Copilot Plus PCs announced at Microsoft’s Surface event on Monday.

Not to be confused with the other Swift 14 laptops with AI chips, the Swift 14 AI is the only one with a Qualcomm Snapdragon X series processor. This one comes with either the base 12-core Snapdragon X Elite chip or the 10-core X Plus chip and goes up to 32GB of memory and 1TB of M.2 SSD storage.

Asus is starting its Copilot PC adventure with its Vivobook S 15. It will have two Qualcomm processor options — the base 12-core Snapdragon X Elite and 10-core Snapdragon X Plus — and both options will support 32GB onboard memory and 1TB of PCIe 4.0 SSD.

Dell is releasing five Copilot Plus PCs with Snapdragon this year, starting with the XPS 13 and Inspiron 14 Plus (7441). The XPS will be configured with a midtier Snapdragon X Elite chip and up to 64GB of memory and 2TB of PCIe SSD storage and will have three display options: two IPS, one touch-enabled; and one OLED that’s also a touchscreen. The OLED will have the highest resolution — but lowest refresh rate — out of the display options.

Meanwhile, the Inspiron will have the Snapdragon X Plus, support up to 32GB of memory and up to 1TB of M.2 2230 SSD storage, and only one display option, an IPS touchscreen. The Dell Latitude 7455 will have both Snapdragon X Elite and Plus options with support for up to 32GB of memory and 1TB of M.2 2230 SSD storage.

Along with HP’s ProBook, its OmniBook and Elitebook have replaced its now-former Envy, Pavilion, and Dragonfly series in a huge renaming effort to clean up and organize HP’s laptop portfolio. The Omibooks will be the consumer-focused devices, while the Elitebooks will be commercial, or business-focused.

HP will start shipping its new OmniBook X AI and EliteBook Ultra AI next month, and their configurations will include a 12-core Snapdragon X Elite processor. The Elitebook only goes up to 16 GB of memory, but the OmniBook can handle up to 32GB.

The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x 14 and ThinkPad 14s will come with Snapdragon X Elite processors. The Yoga Slim will be the cheaper of the two due to the lack of Enterprise features that come with the business-oriented ThinkPad. Both will have OLED displays, but the ThinkPad will support up to 64GB of memory, while the Yoga Slim will support up to only 32GB.

The first Microsoft device to get its own Copilot Plus treatment is the Surface Pro. You’ll be able to get it with either the Snapdragon X Elite or X Plus processor, optional 5G connectivity, and either an IPS or OLED display.

There’s also the Surface Laptop 6, which also comes with either the Elite or Plus Snapdragon chips, and up to 64GB of memory and 1TB of SSD storage.

Samsung’s first three Copilot Plus PCs are all under the name Galaxy Book4 Edge. There’s one 14-inch model and two 16-inch models, all with Snapdragon X Elite processors, 2880 x 1800 AMOLED touchscreens, and 16GB of RAM.

All of these PCs are available for preorder now and will start shipping on June 18th.
