By Ma. Elena| Jun 08, 2015

Some reports are claiming that Microsoft's upcoming device, the Surface Pro 4, will be fashioned after its predecessor. It should be expected, however, that the hybrid device will have improvements over the Surface Pro 3.

Listed below are the most notable features and specifications said to be integrated in the Surface Pro 4.

Display

Softpedia claimed that the Surface Pro 4 will come in with a 12-inch screen, continuing its identity as a replacement for a laptop. Master Herald wrote that its touch screen display will have 2K resolution.

Operating System, Processor, & Memory Storage

According to Softpedia, Microsoft's upcoming hybrid device will be equipped with the upcoming Windows 10, an OS which will be properly utilized in the Surface Pro 4.

As for its processor and memory storage, Master Herald claimed that the 2-in-1 device will have 16 GB of RAM space along with 1 TB of internal storage capacity. Microsoft will work once again with Intel for the integration of the latter's new Skylake processor chip in the Surface Pro 4.

Virtual Reality

The REM reported that Microsoft is currently developing a technology designed to create a virtual reality experience called "HoloLens."

There's a huge possibility that the HoloLens technology will be incorporated in the Surface Pro 4, The REM claimed. Now with promising results, Microsoft is aiming to showcase it in the E3 and plans to release it as "a horizontal integration" offering the best experience for the game "Minecraft," the news outlet added.

The combination of the Surface Pro 4 and HoloLens devices proves that "Virtual Reality and tablet gaming are going to be two of the major areas of focus for Microsoft heading into the next two years," The REM wrote. However, HoloLens is said to come out by the end of 2016 or in mid-2017, a pretty far cry from the release of the Surface Pro 4 in July.

Other Features

For its camera, the Surface Pro 4 is said to have front and back snappers. A stylus pen, which goes well with its touch screen display, is also said to be a part of the device's accessories, Master Herald added.

Price & Release Date

The Surface Pro 4 is expected to have a price tag between $1200 and $2000, Master Herald speculated. As for its release date, Softpedia reported that the device will be unveiled alongside the Windows 10 on July 29.

If this speculation is to be believed, "expect the first bits of information regarding the Surface Pro 4 to reach the web this month," given that the tech giant will likely start giving out invites for their major launch next month, Softpedia noted.
