Microsoft Surface Pro 5 Rumored Specifications and Release Date

While it was initially dubbed as a "laptop killer", Microsoft has already released the Surface Book which meets the needs of those looking for a device for more complex computing tasks.

Since the Creator Update for Windows 10 just launched plus the Inter Kaby Lake chips has also just been released, Microsoft might be making sure that the Surface Pro 5 is really ready for a public release.

The software titan, which called the Surface Pro the "ultimate mobile computer", is planning to add the Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835 to the Surface Pro to turn it into a superb mobile computer.

The Microsoft Surface Phone could be a great competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Note series, according to Tom's Guide.

While Microsoft has not made any official announcement regarding the Surface Pro 5, rumor has it that the 2-in-1 tablet will come with as much as 16 GB of random access memory (RAM) and possibly 512 GB of internal storage. It will use the Windows 10 Redstone 2 operating system. The low-end model will provide full 2K support and the high-end version will offer 4K support. Reported on by Patently Apple, the alleged design for the Surface features a Surface Pen slot, and a single port that looks like a USB Type-C port.

The Surface Pro 5 will come with the new Surface Pen.

The latest Snapdragon chipset is said to feature Quick Charge 4.0 tech that allows four to five hours battery life in just five-minute charge while reaching up to 50 percent in just 15 minutes.

Whether the patent drawings are for the Surface Phone or not, it is worth noting that the Surface Phone is now having its trial production with manufacturing partner Pegatron, and is expected to be released sometime in the fall of 2017. The site also sees an upgrade in the camera and WI-FI of the Surface Pro 5, along with the Bluetooth. It is a powerful, lightweight, fast, thin, and versatile and sure with a little retouch from its specs, longer battery life, and integrated cellular connectivity, and I will be good to go for the Surface Pro 5 that will be launched next year as the ideal mobile computer. Rumors suggest the Redmond-based firm will release the prompted Surface Pro 5 at one of those events.
