Surface Pro 8 leaked with 120Hz display and Thunderbolt support

Microsoft is preparing to launch a new Surface Pro 8 model next week, and a leak reveals exactly what to expect. Twitter account shadow_leaks has published a picture of the Surface Pro 8, which appears to be a retail listing. The account claims that the Surface Pro 8 will ship with a new 13-inch 120Hz display with narrow bezels and two Thunderbolt ports.
