Microsoft’s upcoming Surface Pro 4 is potentially a killer device on release date, going by the latest leaks and rumours on the Windows-powered tablet. Its specs and features will easily outperform Apple’s planned iPad Pro, even the popular MacBook, according to reports.
The Surface Pro 4,  as per The Fuse Joplin report, will unbox in two models and any of them will out-spec Apple’s biggest tablet to date, the iPad Pro that is, at 12.9-inch. The same goes for the MacBook, its latest build billed as the thinnest laptop ever.
Killer specs and features
The same report claimed that Microsoft plans to unveil the Surface Pro 4 in two major models. The 12-inch variant is touted as the mass-geared version that will be powered by Intel’s mobile M processing chip. Although it is the more affordable edition, it will have a 2K resolution screen, exactly at 2160 x 1440 pixels, that will be found too in the pricier model.
The latter will boast of a 14-inch panel and is fired up by both the Intel i5 and i7 processors. This suggests that Microsoft plans to offer the high-end Surface Pro 4 to segment with specific power needs.
Surface Pro 4-only features
The report added that certain features of the Windows tablet will differentiate it from the competition, providing an edge against the iPad Pro and the MacBook. For one, the Surface Pro 4 is packed with better, at least hardware-wise, The Fuse Joplin report said.
Another unique feature is the inclusion of stylus support. The report noted that Microsoft is bundling a digital stylus with its upcoming flagship tablet, underscoring the device’s main functionalities – ease of use and productivity.
There were recent reports, however, that Apple is adding stylus functions with the iPad Pro. Yet this remains unconfirmed and even when true, there were indications that the tool, which the late Steve Jobs had famously rejected, will be sold separately. That could add up the iPad Pro sticker price and could prove a turn off to would-be buyers.
Microsoft has yet to confirm if the Surface Pro 4 on release date will be the first mobile device to debut the overhauled Windows 10 operating system. What’s clear, however, is the OS is a free upgrade option upon its Summer 2015 launch, giving assurance to Surface Pro 4 buyers that they’ll have a taste of Windows 10 on availability.

Voice Calling Test

Which voice calling app uses the most data per minute? We tested the top 10 Free voice call apps, which use data to place calls, can offer a cheaper way to keep in contact with friends abroad and come to the rescue when you’ve used up your monthly minute quota. However, with multi-gigabyte data plans still often coming at a premium price, the busiest chatters out there could soon eat into their monthly allowance using voice over data calls. To shed some light on the issue, we’ve gone back over our list of  10 free call apps  to investigate just how much data these apps end up consuming. In the list you’ll find popular apps such as Hangouts, Skype, WhatApp and Viber, as well as regional favourites including Line and Nimbuzz. The test method For our test, we subjected each of these 10 apps to three separate one minute calls and recorded the amount of data used by the app after each call. These three totals were then averaged together to produce the result. Bo...

Microsoft Aims To Kill Google Chromebooks

Microsoft Aims To Kill Google Chromebooks With $149 Windows 10 Laptops Despite a lacklustre start, Chromebooks are becoming relatively popular in the super-budget end of the portable market. This has worried Microsoft for some time. After all, with a Google-centric experience, not to mention an operating system in the form of Chrome OS, there’s little if anything to be gained here by Microsoft and everything to lose. That’s why it’s targeting the Chromebook specifically, with a most likely Windows 10-based  $149 laptop. They’re no MacBook killers and don’t expect them to play GTA V, though  (when it finally makes a PC appearance that is). According to tech rumour site www.Digitimes.com , these laptops are geared primarily towards emerging markets, education and the super-low end market, which includes users whose tasks are limited to web browsing, word processing and social media use. The Chromebook has gained traction in quite a few areas and Micros...

Spartan Vs. Rest!!

Spartan For many, it’s not exactly a confidence booster that Microsoft’s forthcoming new browser will be a “Windows App,” rather than a traditional desktop application. It sports the characteristic borderless frames and blockily minimalist aesthetic, and the overall impression is of a stripped-down, simplified version of IE, according to an initial appreciation by Network World’s Howard Wen. ( "First Look: Microsoft's new Spartan browser for Windows 10" ) But, in a lot of ways, that’s probably a good thing – Chrome’s got a very similar look and feel, and it’s doing pretty well for itself. Spartan appears as a Windows app Chrome So what about the browser Spartan’s trying to knock off of its perch? Chrome’s still got major advantages over the rest of the field, including a perceived performance edge, simple and elegant design, and tight integration with Google’s wildly popular web services like Gmail. Simplicity is key for Chrome For the moment, those features...
