Surface Hub receives periodic updates to enhance features and functionality. The 2020 Update (20H2), including Update 1 and Update 2, delivers key improvements to device deployment and manageability.

Note

This update applies only to Surface Hub (1st generation) and Surface Hub 2S.

Windows 10 Team 2020 Update 2

Display and preferred language support

Admins can now enable end users to change the display language from installed languages on the device. Ensure that Surface Hub is running KB5023773 or a later Windows update. For more details, visit the Surface Hub update history.

GCC High support

With KB5010415 or later installed, Surface Hub supports Government Community Cloud (GCC) High environments. More configuration steps are required for Teams Rooms to connect to GCC High tenants successfully.

Support for Surface Hub Smart Camera

The AI-powered Surface Hub Smart Camera enhances hybrid collaboration, ensuring remote participants see interactions with both content and in-room participants. Learn more about installation at Install and manage Surface Hub Smart Camera.

Support for Progressive Web Apps (PWAs)

Admins can deploy PWAs remotely on Surface Hubs via an MDM provider using provisioning packs. For more information, see Install Progressive Web Apps on Surface Hub.

Ease of Access updates

Users can adjust Ease of Access settings during a Surface Hub session and close apps just like they do in other versions of Windows 10 or Windows 11.

  • Ease of Access. Users can adjust the following settings without signing in: Display, Text cursor, Magnifier, High contrast, Narrator, Closed captions, and Keyboard.
  • Familiar UI for apps. Users can close apps using the familiar Close button, reducing dependency on dragging apps to the bottom of the screen.

More details are available at Adjust Ease of Access settings on Surface Hub.

Administrator updates

See Configure non-Global Admin accounts on Surface Hub for further admin configurations.

Windows 10 Team 2020 Update 1

Support for new Teams Rooms application

New Teams Rooms client support

With KB5005101 or later, Surface Hubs automatically upgrade to the latest Teams Rooms client.

Whiteboard application upgrade

This update facilitates the transition to the new Whiteboard app via Microsoft Store.

New Microsoft Edge browser installed by default

After installation of this update, Surface Hubs automatically replace their Microsoft Edge Legacy browser with the new Chromium-based browser. To learn more, see Manage Microsoft Edge on Surface Hub. Microsoft Edge Legacy is no longer available on Windows 10 Team after installation of this update or a subsequent Windows Cumulative Update (CU).

Windows 10 Team 2020 Update (20H2)

Deployment and manageability

  • Modern authentication for cloud device accounts. Surface Hub supports Exchange Web Services (EWS) and Microsoft Authentication Library-based authentication to connect to Exchange, allowing customers to deprecate the use of Basic authentication. To learn more, see Modern authentication on Surface Hub.

  • Expanded Mobile Device Management (MDM) policy settings:** Over 20 new policies enhance control over updates, wireless projection, network configuration, and privacy settings. Key CSPs include:

To learn more, see the following resources:

Microsoft Entra joined devices

  • Single sign-on (SSO): Credentials flow seamlessly across Microsoft 365 apps on Microsoft Entra joined devices.
  • Conditional access (CA): Enforce policies for Microsoft Entra joined Surface Hubs per corporate security requirements.
  • Non-Global admin support: Assign admins with specific permissions to manage Surface Hub. To learn more, see Configure non-Global Admin accounts on Surface Hub.

Important

Microsoft recommends that you use roles with the fewest permissions. This helps improve security for your organization. Global Administrator is a highly privileged role that should be limited to emergency scenarios when you can't use an existing role. To learn more, see the recommended guidance in Configure non-Global Admin accounts on Surface Hub.

Inking improvements

  • Dual-pen support: Collaborate on Surface Hub 2S with two pens for real-time interaction. Ensure the latest firmware updates are installed.

Microsoft Teams

  • Microsoft Teams installed by default. Microsoft Teams is the default app for meetings, calls, and collaboration on new Surface Hub devices, which can be changed or configured via MDM or directly on Surface Hub using the Settings app. To learn more, see Deploy Microsoft Teams.

  • Proximity Join: Proximity Join lets users take scheduled Microsoft Teams calls on a nearby Surface Hub using their laptop or phone. It also lets users transition an in-progress meeting to a nearby Surface Hub. Windows 10 Team 2020 Update adds Mobile Device Management (MDM) support to configure Proximity Join. To learn more, see:

  • Coordinated Meetings: Utilize multiple devices for Teams meetings, maximizing screen use with separate content and video feeds. Users can join a meeting from another device with a single tap and maximize screen real estate by showing video feeds on one device and a digital whiteboard or content on the other. Windows 10 Team 2020 Update adds MDM support to configure Coordinated Meetings. To learn more, see Set up Coordinated Meetings with Microsoft Teams Rooms and Surface Hub.
