Microsoft is ending manufacturing of its Surface Studio 2 Plus all-in-one PC two years after introducing the newest mannequin. Surface Studio 2 Plus inventory began working out in latest weeks, and now Microsoft has confirmed to Windows Central that it’s not manufacturing the system.

“Customers can proceed to buy Surface Studio 2 Plus by retailers and companions with inventory” says Microsoft in an announcement. “For areas reaching out of inventory, Surface Studio 2 Plus will not be accessible for brand spanking new purchases.”

The Surface Studio began off life as a shock addition to Microsoft’s Surface lineup, with a touchscreen and distinctive hinge that allowed the 28-inch show to rework into an enormous pill for drawing functions. It focused creatives, one in every of Apple’s strongholds, at a time when Microsoft had simply shipped Windows 10 and was trying to make desktop PCs thrilling once more.

It now seems to be like the tip of the highway for Microsoft’s modern Surface Studio, as soon as thought of the final word all-in-one Windows system. While the Surface Studio was all the time an costly and area of interest system, there was nothing else fairly prefer it available on the market. Microsoft has been regularly exiting varied areas of its Surface enterprise, with no successors deliberate for the Surface Duo or Surface Earbuds both.

As somebody who has pleaded for a Surface Studio monitor, I’m nonetheless holding out hope that Microsoft may in the future launch a standalone folding and reworking display so we will flip any laptop computer or PC right into a Surface Studio.
