A rumored image of the much-anticipated Microsoft Surface Phone, which is codenamed as Project Juggernaut Alpha.

Reports claimed that Microsoft Surface Phone 2017 specs and features will be different from the specifications of the smartphones that are currently available in the market.

Dubbed as the next iPhone killer, Microsoft Surface Phone 2017 will take its chances against Apple's flagship smartphone. While Microsoft is still mum about the details of the Microsoft Surface Phone 2017, various publications predicted on what specs and features will land on the handset. 

One of the major features of the upcoming smartphone is Continuum that allows Windows devices to adapt automatically on changes and situation. For smartphones, it can be transformed into a miniature CPU by simply attaching a monitor, keyboard, and a mouse either via wire or Bluetooth, according to Windows Central. Moreover, it supports x68 applications, which means it can run desktop apps.

Microsoft Surface Phone 2017 will be powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 835 processor, which is known to come with a 30 percent increase in area efficiency and 27 percent improvement in performance as well as consuming up to 40 percent less power, according to The Droid Review.

Other features of the forthcoming smartphone are 6GB RAM that will boost its performance and Quick charging 4.0 functionality that will make charging the device faster. Although Microsoft acquired Nokia, the company will reportedly leave out some of the famous Nokia Lumia features.

The other model, on the other hand, is likely to have 4GB RAM, and also to be powered by Snapdragon 835 processor. The surface phone runs the 64-bit Windows 10 Mobile variant.

All eyes are on Microsoft Surface Phone 2017 thanks to the success of the company's Surface Pro line. However, Microsoft has not revealed the official release date and features of Surface Phone 2017.
