Reports claimed that Microsoft purposely delayed the release of Microsoft Surface Pro 4 to coincide with the release of Windows 10 as the operating system will become a selling point of the device. However, Microsoft has not disclosed the official release date of the device.

The Windows 10 offers new features that promise better and faster performance as well as a single homepage unlike in Windows 8. It seems that the company wants to make a bigger impact than it did last year by releasing the hybrid device with a new operating system from Microsoft. Moreover, the tablet is rumored to pack a 12-inch screen display with 2K pixel resolution making it a fit alternative for a laptop.

The device will reportedly be powered by the new "Skylake" processor from Intel, according to Cross Map. "Skylake" chipset is the follow-up to the "Broadwell" SoC released late last year. Previous reports stated that the device will pack either the Intel Core-M chipset or the Intel Broadwell processor, which will yield to a slimmer and lighter profile and fanless design.

Other purported features of the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 are: stylus, USB Type-C port, Type Cover 3 and Docking Station. The device will sport a keyboard accessory that will transform the device into an ultra-portable laptop.

However, Microsoft has not revealed the official specs and features of the Surface Pro 4.
