While Microsoft has remained tight lipped about the next gen Surface Pro 5 release date, specs and pricing details, new reports suggest the next gen laptop-tablet hybrid will be completely game oriented.
According to The Bitbag, Microsoft Surface Pro 5 might come featuring NVIDIA's Pascal-architectured graphics cards or Advanced Micro Device's (AMD) GPUs and new Polaris graphics architecture. This feature is sure shot to make the laptop a perfect game oriented device. Furthermore, the Microsoft tablet is also expected to sport a rechargeable stylus and dock.
Among other specs, the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is expected to come powered by the Intel Kaby Lake processor. However, the Kaby Lake chip is still under development and is expected to get released in early 2017. This will indirectly delay Microsoft Surface Pro 5 release date to 2017. The software giant intends to address the battery drain issues faced by previous Surface Pro devices with the use of the new generation processor.
Also rumors are that the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 will come pre-loaded with Windows 10 Professional Redstone 2 operating system. It is to be noted that the Redstone 2 version of the operating system is still under development and is expected to be available by spring of next year.
There are reports which suggest that the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 will be rolled out in 2K as well as 4K display models. It is also rumored that the Surface Pro 5 will be quite good at multi-tasking with its 16 GB of RAM. In terms of camera, the device is set to have a 16MP rear camera and an 8MP front camera. It is reported that the laptop-tablet hybrid will sport a USB 3.1 Type-C port that will double the speed of data transfer between devices. Thunderbolt 3 is also rumored for the device.
The Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is expected to come with a price tag of $899 for the Core i5 variant, $999 for the Intel Core i7 variant, and $1,599 for the i7 Extreme variant.
Readers are advised to take the information with a grain of salt as nothing yet about the Microsoft Surface pro 5 release date, specs and pricing details have been announced officially.
