Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Release Date & Specs: Laplet Coming Out in Different Sizes in July 2015? [Rumors]

Christian Times says that the Microsoft Surface Pro 4, which is believed to be the next flagship laplet from the mega tech company, will be out by July this year. However, a separate source insists that Microsoft might decide to release it on this year's GDC, or Game Developers Conference, which will be held in San Francisco, California from March 2 to 6.

Moreover, rumor has it that it will be out with an eight-inch mini version to go head-to-head with Apple's iPad Mini, Samsung's Galaxy Tab series, and Google's Nexus 9. Plus, further speculations from avid Microsoft users state that the Surface Pro 4 is actually going to be released in different sizes.

Previous reports indicate that the Surface Pro 4 will keep the 10.1-inch screen its predecessors sported. Conversely, the rumor mill says that the device will also come out in 12-inch and 14-inch models. This could be an edge for Microsoft since releasing multiple sizes for a single device allows the company to cater to various market demographics.

Although multiple online news sources predicted that the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 will be out in July this year, PC Pro says otherwise. According to PC Pro, it might be released later than that, which may be from July to October this year.

"Microsoft is looking into putting out the Surface Pro 4 on July 2015," the tipster on 4Chan wrote, as reported by KDrama Stars. "My sources say that Microsoft will reveal it on GDC, and they will use that and a gaming PC, plus an Xbox to show how powerful Windows 10 and DX12 is."

Plus, PC Pro also stated that the 12-inch version might sport a 2160 x 1440 screen, an Intel Core M Broadwell chip, and 16 GB RAM. Moreover, its mini eight-inch version is rumored to have an Intel Atom 64-bit chip and an eight-inch to 10-inch display.

The Core M Broadwell chip will be a wonderful upgrade for the Surface Pro 4, particularly because it will be improving the device's portability and power, according to Gospel Herald. Its fanless operation gives it a cooler running temperature, which is believed to be a very big improvement from its predecessor, the Surface Pro 3.

Christian Times says that the Surface Pro series is actually one of the most successful lines Microsoft has created for the world, together with the Xbox One and the Xbox 360. Additionally, the Surface Pro 4 is expected to be out in the market with a price tag of $899, while its mini version will be sold at $599.
