Microsoft rumoured to be launching Surface PC in late October

While this is still all up in the air and speculation at the moment, Microsoft will supposedly unveil a Surface All-in-One alongside new Windows 10 devices from partner manufacturers. But what’s caught our interest is this AIO that’s being called Cardinal. Past rumours surrounding the device claim it’ll come with three different screen options: a 21-inch Full HD display, 24-inch 4K display, and 27-inch 4K display. Some are speculating it could be a consumer version of the Surface Hub using Perspective Pixel screen technology. What fueled the speculation further was Microsoft applied for a patent for an all-in-one modular PC back in 2015. But Microsoft is keeping tight lipped at the moment and won’t acknowledge that the event is happening. We are keeping our eyes peeled for any updates.
