While Microsoft has remained tight lipped about its upcoming range of new devices including Microsoft Surface Pro 5, Surface Book 2 as well as the highly anticipated Surface phones, tons of rumors about Microsoft Surface Pro 5 release date, specs and pricing details have been flooding the internet for quite some time now. New reports suggest the tech giant might announce Microsoft Surface Pro 5 along with Surface Book 2 in an October event. However, the roll out of the new devices is expected to happen only in 2017.
Adding to the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 October release date rumors is the fact that the Redmond has already put Surface Pro 4 for sale at a discounted price of $849. It is to be noted that tech giants usually offer price cuts on devices when new iterations are incoming. So, there are high chances that Surface Pro 4 successor will get unveiled soon. The laptop maker hasn't yet confirmed the rumors.
Notably, there are even numerous conflicting reports which claim that Microsoft Surface Pro 5 as well as Surface Book 2 will be a no show in 2016 and that the devices will get announced only in 2017. The reason behind the delay in release is expected to be Intel's latest Kaby Lake processor and Windows 10 Redstone 2. While, Intel has already announced Kaby Lake, the chipset is expected to be mass produced only in the end of 2016. Furthermore, the Windows 10 Redstone 2 update is rumored to get rolled out in March 2017.
Talking about Microsoft Surface Pro 5 specs, the next gen laptop-tablet hybrid is expected to feature a 4K Ultra HD display, AMD or Nvidia Pascal GPU, a massive 16 GB of RAM, a 16MP rear camera, an 8MP front camera, a rechargeable Surface Pen, a fingerprint sensor, a USB Type-C port and Thunderbolt 3. Lastly, the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is rumored to come with a hefty price tag of $899 for the base model and $1,599 for the high-end variant.
