The innovative Surface Dial will provide easy and instant access to the user's numerous frequented used icons. It would also provide the option for controlling the music for all the music applications. Various other menus, shortcuts and tools can also be accessed via the Surface Dial.

In its official websiteMicrosoft explained that the Surface Dial was invented for the users to interact in a more direct way with technology so that they can customize and navigate easily. The company said it wanted the users to "reimagine physical tools in the digital world from concept to creation."

Surface Pen is expected to get a major upgrade as it will perform more functions. It will contain a rechargeable battery, which can be easily charged when it is magnetically linked to the Surface Pro 5. This is a massive improvement over the current Surface Pen, which can not charge in a wireless manner and instead relies on AAAA battery to function.
