Rumors about Microsoft's alleged Surface Phone 2016 release date, specs and pricing details are floating ablaze. If new reports are to be believed the highly anticipated Microsoft Surface Phone will get unveiled at the IFA 2016 event which is scheduled to happen in the first week of September in Berlin.
According to iTechPost, Microsoft will release its Surface Phone 2016 right in time when Apple is expected to unveil its next gen iPhone 7. It is expected that the upcoming Surface phone will come loaded with a host of impressive specs and features to compete with the highly popular Apple iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy S range of smartphones. There are also reports which claim that the upcoming Microsoft Surface Phone may get announced at the company's technical event in October. It remains to be seen whether or not the handsets will get a 2016 release date.
Previous reports suggest, the Redmond will roll out three high end Surface smartphone variants with superior hardware configurations and new features. The entry level model is rumored to feature 3GB of RAM, the midrange model is expected to get 6GB of RAM, and the high-end variant is rumored to feature a massive 8GB of RAM and 512GB of built-in storage. All the three handsets are reported to run Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processors and come preinstalled with Microsoft Windows 10 mobile OS. However, according to Ecumenical News, this time Microsoft made handsets, which will be primarily targeted at the business sector, might run Android OS and not Windows.
It is reported that the three Microsoft Surface Phone 2016 variants will come packed in an aluminum and magnesium body featuring a 5.5-inch AMOLED display, a 20-megapixel Carl Zeiss rear camera coupled with Surface Pen functionality, a fingerprint reader, accelerometer, gyro, compass, a barometer and proximity sensors. Continuum support, USB Type-C connectivity and liquid cooling technology are also expected to be on board. The price range of the Microsoft Surface Phones 2016 is expected to remain between $700-$1100.
