Source: learn.microsoft.com (verified 2026-07-08) · corroborated by microsoft.com. Re-fetched both official Microsoft pages via fetch-clean.mjs (no WebFetch). Consumer model confirmed by the Microsoft Store configure page (corroboration): title "Surface Pro, 12-inch", "Windows 11 Home", base config "Snapdragon® X Plus (8 Core), Platinum, Wi-Fi, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD" at "$849.99" ("Starting at $849.99", "No charger included"), weight "1.5 lbs (686 g)", "Wi-Fi 7", RAM "8GB, 16GB LPDDR5x RAM", storage "Up to 512GB", display "Touchscreen: 12-inch PixelSense™ LCD display". The Microsoft Learn tech-specs page (source) is the "Surface Pro for Business" variant of the same hardware and confirms the shared specs: Snapdragon X Plus (8 Core) X1P-42-100, 12-inch PixelSense LCD 2196x1464 (220 PPI), 3:2, "Refresh rate: up to 90Hz (60Hz default)", weight "1.5 lbs. (686 g)", "Wi-Fi 7" + "Bluetooth Core 5.4" (no cellular modem listed), "Designed for Surface Slim Pen" with "Surface Slim Pen sold separately", and battery stated only in watt-hours ("Battery Capacity Nominal (Wh): 38", "Min (Wh): 37"). ram_gb=8 and os="Windows 11 Home" are taken from the consumer corroboration page (the business source page instead lists 16GB/24GB RAM and Windows 11 Pro, which do not apply to this consumer entry). NULLED: battery_mah — only Wh published (38 nominal / 37 min) and no nominal voltage, so any mAh is inferred. NULLED: release and releaseDate ("2025-05") — neither page states a product release date; the source page shows only documentation metadata "Last updated on 2025-05-06" (not a release date) and the business variant "ships July 22 in select markets", while the consumer store page gives no ship date, so 2025-05 is not verbatim-supported. display_type is "LCD (PixelSense)" from "PixelSense LCD display" (no IPS claim). 10 of 12 spec keys survived verification (>half); exact consumer model corroborated, so publish=true.
