Surface Pro 4 news: What to expect from upcoming Microsoft handset?

Microsoft's Surface Pro 4 could be set to provide prospective users with the features they have been looking for in a tablet computer.

A lot of the specifics concerning the Surface Pro 4 are still largely in the dark due to Microsoft's reluctance to talk about the product; but there are enough details out there now to give people a cursory understanding of what they may be able to expect.

One notable detail that has begun to leak regarding the Surface Pro 4 is its release date, and according to the International Business Times, it is currently expected to be launched in October of this year.

Some of the important features of the Surface Pro 4 have also been leaked. Rumors online have suggested that the Surface Pro 4 will have a 12-inch display as well as an Intel Skylake processor. The Surface Pro 4 also appears to be capable of providing plenty of storage capacity to its users, with the device said to be able to provide 1TB of internal storage. It will also reportedly feature 16GB of RAM upon its release.

One other notable feature about the Surface Pro 4 that Microsoft fans can really get excited about is the likelihood that the device will be running the Windows 10 right from the start.

People who want to get a sense of how the Windows 10 might work on Microsoft's line of tablets can turn to the Surface Pro 3 for some ideas.

According to ZD Net, there are interesting features of the Windows 10 that may be found on the Surface Pro 3, and they can expect those to make their way to the Surface Pro 4.

The Windows 10's Edge browser comes highly recommended, and that will likely be found in the Surface Pro 4 as well. The Windows 10 also features an overhauled file explorer, and prospective buyers of the Surface Pro 4 can also expect to use the function liberally.

Microsoft has yet to confirm what features people can expect from the Surface Pro 4.
