Microsoft may have another Surface announcement to make before the end of the year, according to a rumor from Windows Central. The report claims that Microsoft is working on a low-cost, education-focused device, codenamed "Tenjin," designed to compete with Chromebooks in schools. The laptop could be "announced before the end of this year if plans don't change," the report says. It would also run a new variant of Windows 11, dubbed "Windows 11 SE."

The laptop would come with a low-end quad-core Intel Celeron N4120 processor, "up to" 8 GB of memory, an 11.6-inch 1366×768 display, and an all-plastic body. It would eschew the normal Surface Connect port in favor of a single USB-A port, a USB-C port, and a "barrel-style AC port." Presumably, the laptop could charge through either the AC port or the USB-C port, as current Surface devices do.
