Microsoft releases second-generation Surface Hub 2S

Microsoft has released a new version of its largest Surface computer, and it's not the recently updated Surface Studio 2. Available in large 50-inch and 85-inch versions, the enterprise-focused Surface Hub 2S is the largest Surface you can buy, and its latest update offers some upgrades over the original Surface Hub 2S.

The updated Surface Hub 2S is the first touch-enabled digital tablet to run Teams Rooms on Windows. Microsoft says moving from Windows 10 Team Edition, the operating system that powers the first-generation Surface Hub 2S, unlocks several "most requested Teams Rooms" features for users and IT administrators. For example, the updated Surface Hub now supports Front Row, persistence, and consistent remote management capabilities.

Microsoft has yet to reveal what hardware powers the updated Surface Hub 2S. All we know so far is that it will be exactly the same size as its predecessor, allowing the company to choose between a 50-inch or 84-inch screen size. Windows Central claims that the computer runs an updated cartridge unit powered by 11th generation Intel Core processors (the first details about the update emerged in late 2022).

Microsoft says the new Teams Rooms experience will only be available on the second-generation Surface Hub 2S. However, the company will continue to provide security updates and critical fixes for the original Surface Hub 2S until October 14, 2025 (Microsoft stopped supporting the original Surface Hub in November 2022).

No word on whether Microsoft plans to sell the updated Brain and newer hardware to existing customers. Still, it's clear that upgrading the "brain" or the entire computer is the only way to get the new Teams Rooms experience with Surface Hub 2S.

The updated Surface Hub 2S will be available later this year, and companies can ask their Surface experts or resellers for more information.
