    Microsoft held a special event in China earlier this week to launch the company's new Surface Pro hardware. While the software giant promised to live blog the event itself, Microsoft's plans failed due to connectivity and the company didn't live stream any video of the event either. Microsoft has now posted a 45-minute video of the main part of the launch event, featuring Surface chief Panos Panay.

    Panay spends some time looking back at the history of Surface, before introducing the new Surface Pro. There are demonstrations of the new Surface Pen, details on the more than 800 hardware changes inside, and a closer look at the new hinge. If you enjoy Panay's hardware introductions or you're just a little curious about the new Surface Pro then Microsoft's video is available above or on YouTube. We also have a closer look at the new Surface Pro right here.
