Microsoft Surface Pro 5 Release Date Confirmed For February 2017? Rumored Specs & Features Here
PrakashThe Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is expected to be release soon looking at the one year anniversary of Surface Pro 4. Let's compile the expectations of the expert and Surface Pro lovers.
Release date is based on two events- Second major update to Windows 10 was delayed and the launch of Intel's 14-nanometer Kaby Lake processor. It could correspond to a new hardware launch from Microsoft in spring of next year.
It is expected that Surface Pro 5 will start at $899 (£749, AU$1,349) and escalate from there depending on the configuration and accessories you choose.
Earlier this year, there was a patent filed by Microsoft for a stylus that features a rechargeable battery system. We can hope to see a major change in the Stylus of Surface Pro 5.
According to TechRadar, the patent details a magnetic charging dock built to give the new Surface Pen its juice, seemingly with connectors meant for a Surface Dock mounting.
When it comes to expectation, from the screen size and resolution to the hardware inside, we expect some major upgrade in Surface Pro 5.
The longer battery life of new Surface Pro 5 will be major attraction for the customers. Unlike, Microsoft's promise of 9 hours video playback in Surface Pro 4, TechRadar rated the device for 5.15 hours video playback. Practically we hope to see almost 7 hours battery life.
In terms of resolution, Microsoft has already outperformed with razor sharp 267 ppi in its Surface Pro 4. A bigger screen will cast effect on battery life.
However, if the next Surface Pro were equipped with, say, a 4K (3,840 pixels wide, at least) screen, it would woo the film and photo editors.
Stay tuned for more updates on Surface Pro 5 features and release date.
