Microsoft Surface Pro 7 – Here’s Everything We Know So Far

Surface Pro 6 rolled out about four months ago, but speculations on the upcoming Microsoft Surface Pro 7 are already shaping up on the Internet. We expect the next-gen device to be thinner than its predecessor and a more performant processor and higher internal storage. Here’s everything we know so far about Microsoft Surface Pro 7.

What To Expect From Microsoft Surface Pro 7?

Undoubtedly, the Surface Pro series of Microsoft represents a significant improvement in technology, in general, and in convertible tablet, in particular. While Surface Pro 6, which rolled out in October 2018, was well-received by customers, we also expect Microsoft Surface Pro 7 to be very appreciated once it launches this year.

Regarding the design, Microsoft Surface Pro 7 would come out with a thinner case, slimmer bezels around the display, and rounded corners. Some expect that Surface Pro 7 to look similar to Apple’s iPad Pro tablets. Also, the keyboard of the Surface Pro 7 would be thinner than that of Surface Pro 6.

As for the technical specs, Surface Pro 7 would boast either 8 or 16 GB of RAM, similar to the last year’s Surface Pro 6, but it would come with a larger storage unit and more performant processor. The device might come out with other changes as well, but at the moment we heard nothing about them.

Microsoft Surface Pro 7 Release Date

The 2018 Surface Pro 6 came out in October of the last year. Rumors indicate that Microsoft Surface Pro 7 would roll out in Q4 2019, most likely, in October 2019, too. Accordingly, we expect Microsoft Surface Pro 7 to launch in October 2019, although it might come out later this year.

Nonetheless, along with the rollout of Microsoft Surface Pro 7 tablet-computer device, we expect the giant tech company to launch a new Surface laptop and a Surface Go device, as well. The Surface Go series is Microsoft’s mid-range, affordable-priced tablets lineup.

Sony Xperia XZ4 Leaks: Best Specs and Features Improvements

Sony is actively working on its next flagship and it is likely that an official announcement will be made at the Mobile World Congress conference that will take place in February.

The possible specs of the device are a hot topic for the fans.  A reliable source has released new information that has a high chance of being real.

The best in its class

It seems that Sony plans to go all in with the new smartphone. A high-quality 6.5 inch QHD+ OLED panel will offer a mind-blowing 3360 x1440 resolution that will make Netflix binges awesome.

In a flash

The smartphone will include Qualcomm’s latest offering. The Snapdragon 855 SoC will be paired with 6GB of RAM, a reasonable amount that should allow users to play the latest mobile games and switch between apps without any problems. The device will offer 128GB of internal storage space but those that need more will be to use a MicroSD card with a maximum capacity of 512GB. At 4400 mAh the battery is quite generous and it should be able to keep the device alive during the day. Features like an in-display fingerprint sensor and 5G compatibility are also expected.

Looks

It is likely that four color choices will be available with black, silver blue and purple as the primary candidates. The beautiful display will be protected by Corning Gorilla Glass and an IP65/68 certification means that dust and water won’t be a threat.

Elusive camera

Camera specs remain shrouded in mystery at this point.  Some analysts believe that a triple-lens setup seems to be the most intuitive choice, featuring a primary sensor that reaches 40 MP while the secondary and wide-angle sensors could range between 5MP and 16MP. The selfie camera will be quite beefy as many believe that a 24MP sensor will be used in order to deliver superb images.

The truth will be revealed on the 25th of February when the Sony press conference will take place.
