- Microsoft is offering MacBook Pro owners up to $1,000 in trade-in credit to switch to its new Surface Laptop Ultra (Notebookcheck).
- Surface Laptop Ultra is priced starting at $2,599 and contains an Nvidia AI chip, positioning it as Microsoft's AI-PC flagship (CNBC).
Why it matters: Microsoft is pricing a $2,599 Nvidia-powered Surface Laptop Ultra and stacking a $1,000 trade-in bounty on top — effectively cutting the effective price to roughly $1,599 for switchers — while directly challenging Apple in the premium laptop tier where the MacBook Pro dominates.
