According to sources, the Surface RT 2 will simply be called the Surface 2; and Surface Pro, simply Surface Pro 2.  The Surface is expected to look identical to the current SurfaceRT.  Interestingly enough there may be an option for a white Surface.  Here is what we know of the specs so far:

  1. CPU: TEGRA 4 processor
  2. Screen: 10.6-inch, ClearType Full HD (1920 x 1080, or 1080p)
  3. Battery: Up to 8 hours
  4. RAM: 4GB
  5. Kickstand: New integrated two-position style kickstand
  6. Weight & Thickness: Identical to current SurfaceRT (1.5 lb and .37 inches respectively)
  7. Color: Black and new White color possible, VaporMg casing
  8. Office: Office Home & Student included (with Outlook RT)
  9. Storage: Micro-SD card expansion up to 64 GB
  10. Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.0
  11. WiFi: 802.11
  12. Camera: Front and rear-facing cameras
  13. Other Ports: Full sized USB 3.0 port, HD video-out port
  14. OS: Windows RT 8.1

Price at this point is unknown but it is most likely going to stay at $350. Availability is expected to be around the time of the Windows 8.1 and in conjunction with the Surface Pro 2 release.

There will be no integrated LTE or NFC. Nokia’s tablet is also expected to come out slightly before the Surface 2 release.  The Surface event in New York later this year is not expected to debut the Surface Mini.
