However, a less expensive starting price and a desktop aimed at regular consumers would go a long way to increasing the market share of the Surface brand, so it's not entirely implausible. Given the heavy marketing toward creative professionals that surrounded the last two versions of the desktop, this move sounds unlikely.

If Microsoft is planning any significant upgrades or design changes to a new Surface Studio desktop, it could justify yet another price increase.Īlternatively, Microsoft could bring the price down in an attempt to make the premium all-in-one desktop more approachable to mainstream consumers. The Surface Studio 2 starts at $3,499, raising the base price of the desktop by $500, up from the $2,999 starting price of the original Surface Studio in 2016.

With no firm news of a new product or specifications, it's hard to be sure what will happen with the price of a new Surface Studio model, whether it will stay consistent with the pricing of the Surface Studio 2 or whether the price will be raised or lowered.
