Performance is true power. With Copilot+ PCs, you can effortlessly handle any task and boost your productivity and efficiency. The super-fast CPU is paired with a turbocharged neural processing unit (NPU), a specialized computer chip for AI-intensive processes like real-time translations and image generation. This NPU can perform more than 40 trillion operations per second (TOPS).
Power is nothing without endurance and flexibility, right? Whether you choose to work from the office, a coffee shop, or wrap up your project poolside with friends, your Copilot+ PC provides top performance across your apps and a long battery life to go the distance. Fast recharge keeps you up and running even longer.

3. A new era for security
Copilot+ PCs usher in a new era for security. From the moment you turn it on, your Copilot+ PC device is secure to the core.
Your device arrives loaded with layers of built-in protection, extending from the firmware to the operating system, to applications, working together to reduce vulnerabilities out-of-the-box. It’s the latest security you’ll never notice. Additionally, the ultimate security processor is built right into the CPU. The result? It’s harder to hack and easier to update – all to protect your credentials and data.
Enhanced Sign-in Security builds on the biometric authentication of Windows Hello, going one step further. Specialized hardware like a fingerprint reader, and a built-in facial recognition infrared camera, assures only you can access your device. Powerful protections are in place to prevent those who want to access your data from impersonating you.
Your Copilot+ PC also locks automatically when you walk away, and it unlocks and signs you back in with Windows Hello when you return.
All of this and more assures you experience the highest standard of Windows security ever available.
