During the last months we have received different information about the arrival of the next Surface Pro 5, as well as that of the Book 2 and a model that replaces the variant with an Intel ATOM processor. Today, very reliable sources advance the path that the Redmond firm has to travel in the next two years in which it will try to strengthen its position in the segment, taking advantage of a void that Google and Apple seem to leave.
If we pay attention to the general sentiment of the media and the industry, 2016 is seen as a year of transition from the great news that will bring us the course 17. And it is not only, as we say, the Surface, also the iPhone in the smartphone format. Microsoft and Apple prepare their weapons to try to prevent Android from taking over and continuing to sweep across all fields. Without a doubt, the medium term it is exciting for the entire mobile market.

2016: transition year with minor changes in sight

It is true that both promise a significant improvement in both technical capabilities and possible functions available to the user, but the product will come in a "box" very similar to the usual one.
We cannot expect, then, more than a new Surface very similar to the Pro 4, with perhaps small modifications in the design, although unremarkable. Perhaps it is more about exhausting a cycle and presenting the perfect concept, a result of what the product line gave of itself since the presentation of the Surface Pro 3.

Able to turn the segment around like the iPad or the first Nexus 7 in its day? That will be the key. exist three lines products currently open, a project of integración with Windows 10, partners major players like Samsung, Huawei, Lenovo, Acer and a powerful financial muscle in Redmond. In short, a perfect breeding ground to forge a plan that start to beat the beat of the segment.
