Many Microsoft fans are now getting pretty excited for the coming of the tech giant's next-generation tablet, the Microsoft Surface Pro 5. Sadly, it seems like enthusiasts might have to wait a bit longer before they could order the device.

Speculations have strongly suggested that the next tablet could be out in the market sometime in Fall of 2017. According to Learn Bonds, all supposed signs are now pointing to the possible launch of the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 in October 2017. But analysts, however, are still unsure about the rumored 2017 release window for the next Surface Pro tablet. If it does come out, though, then the Redmond-based tech giant would certainly have something to compete with other tech manufacturers for the holiday season.

The October 2017 launch window for Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is not the only speculated time frame that has emerged on the internet recently. Other outlets have also claimed before that the next-generation tablet would eventually be unveiled in March, as said on Droid Report. But to no avail, the month has already come and gone with the device nowhere in sight.

As for the specifications, the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 is being rumored to run using either an Intel Kaby Lake processor or AMD's Ryzen chip. It is going to be supported by 16 GB of Random Access Memory (RAM) and 512 GB of built-in storage capacity. There is also a rumor going around suggesting that the Microsoft Surface Pro 5 will come equipped with a rechargeable Surface Pen, PC Advisor reported.

In terms of the display resolution, rumor has it that Microsoft Surface Pro 5 may come with either 2K or 4K quality for its screen. No further details mentioned, though, for the size of the screen. More updates about this should come out in the coming months.

It should be noted that the tech giant still hasn't confirmed the existence of the Microsoft Surface Pro 5. With that being said, it is highly advisable to take these rumored specifications and features with a tiny pinch of salt.
