Microsoft Surface Pro 4 to counter 12-inch iPad Pro
It is rumored that Microsoft Surface Pro 4 release may happen on Oct. 4.
According to a tweet by The Verge senior editor Tom Warren, fans should not buy Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and instead wait for its powerful successor.

The ventilation will make it less probable to heat up quickly, making it easier for the users to work with it for an extended periods of time.It is also rumored that Surface Pro 4 will be good for use for 17 hours at a stretch.
It is also rumored that the device will come with stylus pen. It is also expected to be equipped with an 8 mega pixel rear camera and a 3.5 mega pixel front camera.
Microsoft Surface Pro 4 price is expected to be around $1700.
