Microsoft could be ready to renew the Surface Go: its possible passage through the FCC would indicate a not-too-distant launch
Table of contents:
At the end of March we saw how rumors appeared that made reference to a possible Surface Go 2. Microsoft would be working on renewing a device that already has two years of life on the market and the rumors began, in this case referring to supposed specifications
Now, the alleged new affordable equipment from Microsoft is back in the news, and it is thanks to a step that must be taken by all equipment in the United States before being launched on the market: pass the supervision of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), the competent body that establishes the rules and regulations related to the different types of electronic equipment.A technical obstacle that apparently would have already overcome the Surface Go 2.
An imminent release?
As reported from Windows Latest, a portable and new device from Microsoft, has passed the FCC tests A model with the name in EV2 code, in a point that must be highlighted, since it is the same denomination that is used for Surface Go in the Geekbench tests.
Passing through the FCC means that a firm can start marketing electronic and telecommunications equipment, since the certification of this body determines that they have passed and exceeded all the compliance criteria of the established standards.
Regarding the Surface Go 2, remember that among the supposed>, reference is made to the use of a 10-inch screen on a computer with different configurations.Either a 1.10 GHz Intel M3-8100Y CPU or a 1.70 GHz Intel Pentium 4425Y CPU along with 8 GB of RAM and an Intel UHD Graphics 615. In the case of the model with the Intel M3-8100Y processor an SSD of 256 GB or 128 GB, while the variant with Pentium 4425Y SoC would be more modest and would choose to mount a 128 GB SSD without the option of a 256 GB model."
For now, this hint of the passage of this supposed Surface Go 2 by the FCC, only cements the suspicions related to a launch very close in time , although right now there is no fixed date, something logical since there is no official information. Can it be at the end of April or in May? It cannot be ruled out, as some rumors also point to the possible arrival, in parallel, of a Surface Book 3.
It is not something unreasonable, since we can take into account how the Surface Earbuds, postponed in time, begin to appear in some online stores fleetingly.Accessories that appeared in their day, in the first rumors, along with the aforementioned Surface Book 3 or the Surface Go 2. Spring may be the time to meet new Microsoft teamsif the crisis generated by the Coronavirus does not prevent it.
