It seems Microsoft is in a mood to give a tough fight to Apple's upcoming MacBook Pro 2016 with the much anticipated Microsoft Surface Pro 5. While, there's currently no word coming from the software giant about the next gen laptop-tablet hybrid, rumors about Microsoft Surface Pro 5 release date, specs and price details can be found in abundance on the internet.
With the tech giant's October 26 fall hardware event nearing, there are numerous reports which claim that the Surface Pro device is likely to get announced on the same day. However, others suggest that the upcoming event, which is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, October 26 in New York City starting 10 am ET, will mainly focus on Windows 10 software updates, Xbox related updates, Microsoft Surface device news and OEM devices.
Meanwhile, it is to be noted that the Redmond is currently offering a discount of up to $150 on some of the Surface devices including Surface Pro 4 with an Intel Core i5 processor, 256GB and 8GB RAM and Surface Books with similar configurations. Usually price cuts are offered only when new device iterations are ready for launch. So, it might not come as a surprise if the Redmond announces Microsoft Surface Pro 5 and Surface Book 2 at the October event.
Talking about Microsoft Surface Pro 5 specs, the laptop-tablet hybrid is expected to come equipped with some impeccable features and hardware configuration, which will make the device stand out from its competitors including Apple MacBook Pro 2016. The upcoming Surface Pro laptop is expected to features Intel's latest Kaby Lake processor along with a 4K Ultra HD display, Windows 10 Redstone 2 update, AMD or Nvidia Pascal GPU, a 16 GB of RAM, a rechargeable Surface Pen, a fingerprint sensor, a 16MP rear camera, an 8MP front camera, a USB Type-C port and Thunderbolt 3.
As far as pricing is concerned, Microsoft Surface Pro 5 4K model is expected to come with a hefty price tag of $1,599, while, the 2K model may cost somewhere around $899.
