Microsoft Surface Pro 5 Release Date, News & Update: Improved Battery, Rechargeable Stylus Pen Expected? More Specs, Features & Upgrades Revealed

Fans continue to look forward to the arrival of the new iteration of the Microsoft Surface Pro line. Surface Pro 4 was mostly considered an impressive device, yet fans are still hopeful for a new device that carries significant improvements. Microsoft is expected to bring that in Microsoft Surface Pro 5.

So far, the Redmond-based tech giant has not confirmed details about the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 or its release date, but latest rumors suggest that fans can expect the hybrid laptop sometime this October. Previous rumors did indicate that the upcoming device will not be ready until 2017.

According to an earlier report from TechRadar, Kaby Lake processors, the chipset expected to be featured in the new Surface Pro device, won't ship until 2017. But now, it is reported that Microsoft Surface Pro 5 details will be dropped next month. If these reports are true, then fans will finally know how powerful the device will be. In addition, Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is expected to be a competitor of Apple's MacBook Pro 2016.

Although nothing has been set in stone yet, rumors about Microsoft Surface Pro 5's specs and features have already made the rounds. One of the long-standing rumors surrounding the device is its battery life. Battery performance is one of the weak features of the Surface Pro 4. It is expected that Microsoft will improve this field to allow the device to last longer while in use.

Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is also said to feature a new and upgraded Surface Pen. The previous model's stylus pen does not last long and would require users to buy a new one. This time around, it is reported that the stylus will be rechargeable via a special magnetic dock.

Whether or not Microsoft Surface Pro 5 will be introduced next month remains to be seen, but fans should be on the lookout for a possible announcement. Until then, all reports should be taken with a grain of salt.
