Up until today, the specific release date for the Surface Book 2 is still unknown, but it is confirmed that the laptop would not be launched any time this year. We’ve also heard that Microsoft may release a refreshed lineup of devices in the same window that will take advantage of new Redstone 2 features.

According to Vine Report, some of the features that the upcoming Surface Book might have includes a power saving feature, a USB type C port that would allow the Surface Book 2 to quickly transmit and receive data and a 4k resolution display.
The Kaby Lake chipset has yet to be mass produced for all devices.
Surface Pro 4’s successor is expected to be released in 2017.
Alongside Kaby Lake-U later this year will be a Kaby Lake-Y SKU packing two cores and GT2 graphics.
Among the reasons for the delay is that Microsoft may be planning to incorporate Intel’s latest Kaby Lake processor into its powerful laptop.
A report from WindowsCentral offers a few details on the upcoming Surface Book 2 and the company’s rumored all-in-one PC. This caused concerns over the structural integrity of the lid’s attachment to the base, and a possible collection of dust forming in the open crack.
As for the Surface AIO, Microsoft is allegedly testing three different size options: a 21-inch Full HD display, a 24-inch 4K display and a 27-inch 4K display. There’s no indication that Microsoft plans to sell all three models, or if it will decide to stick with just one form factor.

While we are hoping that Microsoft would actually come out with a Surface Phone, we hope that it will not look like the device in the picture. It will reportedly make the device perform faster and more efficiently.
