New rumors have surfaced in regards to the new Microsoft Surface Pro 4, claiming the device is expected to be launched as early as July 29, which is the same time the latest Microsoft Windows 10 operating system is expected to come out.

A report by Ecumenical News also claims the new Microsoft Surface Pro 4 will be the first to run on the new Windows 10 operating system.

An earlier report by Tech Radar claimed that Microsoft had indeed confirmed that it is planning to launch the new Surface Pro 4 with the new OS.

Like its predecessor the Surface Pro 3, the new Microsoft Surface Pro 4 is expected to compete against the likes of Apple's successful iPad and MacBook Air devices.

According to reports, the new Microsoft Surface Pro 4 will be available in two variants, a 12 inch variant and a larger 14 inch variant, which are expected to come with the same 2K (2160 x 1440) resolution.

Reports say the new 14 inch variant will pack Intel's Core i5 and Core i7 processor that will come with the Core M Broadwell CPU. In addition, Ecumenical News added that the 12 inch model will pack Intel's new fanless processor.

The new Microsoft Surface Pro 4 is also expected to have the same internal memory storage options as its predecessor, beginning from 64 GB up to 500 GB, according to a report by Tech Radar. Ecumenical News, on the other hand, reported that the new device could pack up to a whopping 1 TB internal memory storage alongside 16 GB RAM.

Other new devices that are expected to run on the new WIndows 10 OS as well, include Microsoft's new Lumia 940, Lumia 940 XL variant and the Lumia 1030 handsets. These new smartphones are expected to be launched possibly around the third quarter of this year.
