Panos Panay says no
It seems that we are not going to be clear until the last minute when it will be time to see a Surface Pro 5 and it is that the renovation of Microsoft's convertible par excellence is becoming more difficult than we expected. Event yes, event no, the truth is that it seems that the time has not come to see a presentation on the matter
And that now was the moment in which all the rumors indicated that he could be the one chosen by Microsoft to offer us a new product. May 23 in Shanghai was the date that many of us had in mind An event with Panos Pany, one of the managers of Surface present at it.Who gave more?
Well no, in the end it seems that it won't be like that and Panos Panay himself wanted to make that clear, Vice President of Microsoft to charge of the Surface series in an interview in which CNET colleagues have asked him about the long-awaited announcement. There is a desire to meet the convertible that succeeds the Surface Pro 4 but... we will have to wait.
And according to Panay the Surface Pro 4 is a top-of-the-line product that can remain competitive in today's market for up to five more years. Nothing more and nothing less, so hopes of seeing a new Surface Pro go to the ground.
These statements have a basis and are also solid. It is not about putting in a new processor and more power or a better screen. No. From Microsoft they think it is better to wait for technology to make improvements that make the generation leap interestingThat will be the ideal time to offer the Surface Pro 5 and not before.
So Where are the hopes of seeing a Surface Pro 5 at the Shanghai event? They had raised all the alerts with there de Panay who also tweeted about the event with the hashtag surface. Some hopes that can go directly to the ground, at least based on these statements.
"We could see a mere update of the Surface Pro 4 with some new component although, and although it would not be a leap, this would not make much sense either if we use the words that we have already seen. If it&39;s such a competitive product, why launch a slightly improved version? Also, this wouldn&39;t do any good for the buyer who just bought one. "
