Top Copilot+ PCs You Can Lease Right Now (With Specs from Each Model)

If you’ve been weighing up an IT refresh this year, you’ll have noticed that “Copilot+ PC” is the badge everyone’s talking about. It’s not just marketing gloss, either. Copilot+ PCs are a new class of Windows device built around a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) capable of 40+ trillion operations per second — which means AI features like Recall, Live Captions and Cocreator run directly on the device rather than in the cloud. 

The practical upside for your team? Faster performance, dramatically better battery life, and AI tools that work even when the Wi-Fi doesn’t.

The catch is that kitting out a whole team with brand-new AI-ready hardware is a serious capital outlay — and with technology moving this quickly, buying outright can feel like a gamble. That’s exactly where leasing earns its keep. Spread the cost into a predictable monthly payment, keep your cash in the business, and stay free to upgrade as the hardware evolves.

So, which Copilot+ PCs should be on your shortlist? Here are five of the best you can lease from HardSoft right now.

1. Microsoft Surface Laptop 13.8″

Microsoft’s newest flagship clamshell, now on Intel Core Ultra Series 3 silicon. You get the polished Surface experience the platform is known for — with full x86 compatibility, so every business app and peripheral your team already relies on just works, plus a proper Copilot+ NPU under the hood.

Key specs:

• Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors — Core Ultra 5, Core Ultra 7, or Core Ultra X7 (368H)
• Intel AI Boost NPU rated at 50 TOPS — a full Copilot+ PC
• 13.8″ PixelSense Flow touchscreen (2304×1536), up to 120Hz, Dolby Vision, anti‑reflective; optional anti‑glare display with integrated privacy screen
• 16GB, 32GB or 64GB LPDDR5x RAM; 256GB, 512GB or 1TB removable Gen 4 SSD
• Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, two USB‑C Thunderbolt 4 ports, USB‑A and audio jack
• Windows 11 Pro, Secured‑core PC with Windows Hello facial recognition and a new haptic touchpad
• Also available in a 15″ size

Who it’s for: Teams who live in Microsoft 365 and want a premium, reliable everyday workhorse. On Intel there’s zero question mark over app or peripheral compatibility, and the optional privacy screen suits client‑facing and regulated roles.

2. Microsoft Surface Pro 13″

The Surface Pro 13″ is the answer for anyone who can’t decide between a laptop and a tablet — because it’s both, now powered by Intel Core Ultra. Detach the keyboard for client presentations or note‑taking with the Surface Pen, snap it back on when it’s time for spreadsheets.

Key specs:

• Intel Core Ultra 5 or Ultra 7 (up to Ultra 7‑366H) with Intel AI Boost
• 13″ OLED touchscreen with superb colour accuracy
• 16GB up to 64GB RAM, with 256GB, 512GB or 1TB SSD
• Wi‑Fi or Wi‑Fi + 5G for true work‑anywhere flexibility
• USB4 / Thunderbolt 4 connectivity
• Windows 11 Pro

Who it’s for: Field teams, consultants, sales staff — anyone whose office changes by the hour. The optional built‑in 5G is a superpower for people who can’t rely on hotel or train Wi‑Fi, and the Intel silicon means enterprise software runs without compromise.

3. Microsoft Surface Pro 12″

The newest and lightest member of the Surface Pro family. The Surface Pro 12″ trims the footprint and the price without trimming the Copilot+ credentials, making it an ideal way to roll AI-ready devices out across a wider team.

Key specs:

• Snapdragon X Plus processor
• 12″ PixelSense touchscreen in a slim, ultra-portable 2-in-1 design
• 16GB or 24GB RAM, with storage from 256GB up to 1TB SSD
• Windows 11 Pro with Copilot+ features like Recall and Cocreator
• All-day battery life and simplified device management

Who it’s for: Businesses scaling up who need flexible, modern devices for a growing headcount — and IT managers who appreciate a device that’s easy to deploy, manage and secure across the fleet.

4. Dell Pro 14 Premium

Dell’s flagship business ultrabook, built for the AI era. The Pro 14 Premium pairs that famous machined build with a genuine Copilot+ NPU and Intel Arc graphics in a sleek, portable 14″ frame.

Key specs:

• Intel Core Ultra 7 268V processor with an NPU delivering up to 48 TOPS for AI workloads (Core Ultra 5 238V also available)
• 14″ Full HD+ touchscreen display — crisp, responsive visuals, with a vibrant Quad HD+ OLED option
• 32GB RAM and 512GB SSD
• Intel Arc graphics for more than just the basics
• HDMI, 2 × USB4, and USB 3.2 Gen 1 (PowerShare) ports, plus a headphone/mic combo jack
• Windows 11 Pro, running as a Copilot+ PC

Who it’s for: Power users and senior staff who want a premium, ultra-portable business machine. With a full 48 TOPS Copilot+ NPU and Arc graphics, it handles everyday workloads and light creative work in one elegant, travel-ready package.

5. Samsung Galaxy Book6 Pro

Proof that Copilot+ isn’t only a Snapdragon story. The Galaxy Book6 Pro runs Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) with up to a 47 TOPS NPU — so it delivers the full Copilot+ feature set while keeping native compatibility with every x86 business application your team relies on.

Key specs:

• Intel Core Ultra 5 or Ultra 7 (up to Core Ultra 7 365H) with up to a 47 TOPS NPU
• Stunning 14″ AMOLED touchscreen (a 16″ model is also available)
• 16GB or 32GB RAM, 512GB SSD
• Intel Arc graphics, plus 2 × Thunderbolt 4, USB‑A and HDMI
• Windows 11 Pro, with seamless integration into the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem

Who it’s for: Teams who want gorgeous AMOLED displays for creative and presentation work, businesses already using Galaxy phones and tablets, or any IT manager who’d rather stay on Intel for guaranteed legacy software compatibility.
