Microsoft's new Surface is released soon

The new Microsoft conference will be held at 10:30 pm, September 23, Beijing time. Although we can't see any new products related to this conference from the text of the invitation letter, the overall picture has speculated that Surface 2 definitely cannot run.

At the close of the conference, rumors and speculations about the new generation of Surface are also flying. Below, the author sorted out some rumors that are circulated on the Internet and are relatively reliable. They share with you. As for the authenticity of these rumours, it will be announced on the 23rd.

Rumor 1: Surface RT 2 is equipped with Tegra 4 processor

The first generation of Surface RT's processor was Nvidia's Tegra 3 processor. In this regard, on Surface RT2, the possibility of Microsoft continuing to use Tegra 4 with Nvidia is still very large. As we all know, the first-generation Surface RT was a mediocre one in the market, and Microsoft had all kinds of embarrassment. However, Nvidia has always been talking to Microsoft, saying that Surface RT and Windwos RT are good products. Of course, this does not rule out the suspicion that Nvidia advertises itself.

In terms of performance, Tegra 4's performance on the Android platform is obvious to everyone. Its performance is excellent. I believe this processor will not have any problems when running Windows RT and this is Windows RT 8.1.

Rumor 2: Haswell processor on Surface 2 Pro

On the Surface 2 Pro, we hope to see better hardware, better performance and longer battery life. The best body weight can be reduced. From now on, Surface 2 Pro is very likely to carry Intel's latest Haswell processor, which will effectively increase its battery life, from the previous 5 hours to 7 hours. This should be regarded as the most reliable rumors.

Surface Pro with Core Duo processor, even from the normal processor replacement point of view, the new generation of Surface Pro 2 should also be replaced to the Haswell processor. And the Haswell series processor's endurance capacity is very obvious, just can make up for the previous generation of Surface Pro's lack of life. Can not find any reason is not on Haswell, the author speculated that the probability of using this processor i5-4200U larger.

Rumor 3: Screen upgrade, Surface RT 2 or will use high score screen

According to DisplaySearch, Microsoft will bring high-resolution screens in the next-generation Surface tablet. DisplaySearch analyst Richard Shim said, "We will usher in a resolution of 1920x1080 screen." This does not coincide with the earlier Microsoft will be introduced in the Surface 2 full HD screen.

Although a generation of Pro has used a display with a resolution of 1920×1080, it is equipped with an Intel Ivy Bridge processor. Since the performance of the Tegra 3 processor on the Surface RT could not be compared with Intel's processor, Microsoft was only able to provide a 10.6-inch 10.6-inch display with a resolution of only 1366×768 for this device that was positioned as a pure tablet. Tegra 4, now faster, can change this situation.

Rumor 4: Surface Pro 2 can be traded

According to foreign media reports, there are indications that Microsoft will likely launch the old Surface Pro to replace the new Surface Pro 2 during the launch of the Surface Pro 2. A Reddit user revealed that although Microsoft does indeed have old stuff renewals, he will not choose to use Surface Pro to replace Surface Pro 2. It is unclear whether this activity will be limited to Microsoft stores in certain regions or all Microsoft stores will usher in this activity.

Now, Microsoft has not responded positively to the Surface Pro TM activity. However, it does disclose that the Microsoft store is sure to usher in a product-for-stock voucher and voucher shopping activity that will continue. In other words, consumers can take their old equipment to the store, replace it with a gift certificate, and then use the gift certificate to purchase other new equipment.

Rumor 5: Small Size Surface Mini

Peter Klein, Microsoft’s chief financial officer, once said that Microsoft is ready to launch a Surface tablet with a smaller screen that is similar to the iPad mini. In order to determine, Surface mini this product will certainly appear, but will not appear in this conference, it is still difficult to determine.

Klein particularly emphasized that Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 use the same core. Because of this, applications running on both operating systems can be easily scaled based on the device's screen size. Klein said, "Because of the same core code, the above two operating systems are suitable for devices from 4 inches to 27 inches. So I think we will respond to market demand. Whether it is 4 inches, 5 Inches, 7 inches, 10 inches or 13 inches, we will provide a variety of experiences throughout the form factor."
