The highly anticipated Surface Pro 5 from Microsoft has already spawned a lot of rumors about its supposed release date. However, while the release date for the device hasn't been announced yet, fans have already come up with their speculations about the unknown date. There are, after all, some factors to consider that may point to the truth behind the rumors.
According to NeuroGadget, a plausible release date for the Surface Pro 5 is sometime after the update of the Windows 10 operating system. The reason behind it is that the updated Windows 10 OS will power the device, so it is only logical to assume that the speculation will gain more traction as time goes by.
Next is the upcoming event that Microsoft is going to host. Some reports are saying that the said event will be hosted around early 2017, so it is most probable that the device will make its debut there. Aside from the Surface Pro 5, other rumored devices that will be announced at the event will include the Surface Book 2, the Surface Phone, and an all-in-one desktop computer.
Another reason for a possible 2017 release date is the fact that Intel has confirmed that it will release a new processor called the Kaby Lake, and Yibada reports that the processor will be ready before the year ends.
The processor will then be shipped to the Microsoft Surface team, and only then will the production start for the new device. The delay will be worth it, considering the fact that the Kaby Lake has more features to offer.
Finally, the Surface Pro 5 will sport a rechargeable stylus pen to add more functionality to the laptop hybrid. The feature is certainly interesting, and as such it draws more enthusiasts to the device.
The Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is expected to be released in early 2017, and technophiles are eagerly awaiting more information about the upcoming device.
