With the release of Microsoft’s Surface Book, the tech giant showed that it too could produce an aesthetic notebook wonder. Fast forward to 2016, it appears that Surface Book 2 is going to be released next year, which is highly disappointing.

Surface Book 2 Has Been Delayed Due To Design Issues With The Notebook

From what we know from our previous report, Surface Book 2 was going to come with Intel’s Kaby Lake series of mobile i5 and i7 processor lineup is most likely going to be a part of the configuration present inside Surface Book 2. We currently do not know which GPU is going to be part of the configuration, but with NVIDIA’s new GeForce GTX series out, it won’t be long till we hear severe graphical improvements from Surface Book 2. In addition to this, the iGPU present in Intel’s Kaby Lake processors will definitely provide a nice little performance boost as opposed to the company’s Skylake processors.

Unfortunately, a supply chain report suggests that due to several design issues, the company has been forced to release Surface Book 2 by 2017. One of the highlights of Surface Book 2 will be in the resolution department and since its predecessor came with a 3000 x 2000 resolution, we expect that a 4K display will be a part of the upcoming notebook.

We understand that this will stress the processor and GPU, but the improved architecture and performance boost will definitely come in handy in terms of efficiency for getting the most out of the notebook in terms of battery life, and perhaps this time, you might actually be able to enjoy AAA game titles with their video settings cranked up.
