There are also reports saying that Microsoft shall be positioning the Surface Pro 5 against the upcoming 2016 Apple MacBook Pro due to come out soon based on rumors, but some critics aver that it is more intended to do battle with the iPad Pro since both are hybrid laptop and tablet, also known as laplet.
However, compared to the 2016 Apple MacBook Pro, the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 will be several notches better since the former device shall be sporting the Intel Skylake processor which is only the predecessor of the Kaby Lake chipset to be used in the latter.
The Surface Pro 5 shall also feature a Surface Pen that is attached to the battery magnetically. It shall have an even better camera compared to the Surface Pro 4.
There were reports saying that the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 shall come out in June but that did not happen as Microsoft was reportedly planning to add an array of awe-inspiring features to the device to ensure that it makes a solid impression on its fans and prospective users.
After the main flaw of the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 was cited particularly the battery, which only lasts for nine hours, the American tech company has apparently learned its past lesson by equipping the Surface Pro 5 with a robust battery.
