Xbox Surface Tablet – Specifications Document Leaked

A few days ago LiveSide posted an alleged documentation of  Xbox 720, Kinect v2, and Kinect Glasses. And now another document has been leaked detailing the specification of a Tablet device that is named “XBox Surface”.

According to detailed obtained by Shifted2u, the new tablet device will be 7” in size with a 1280 x 720 resolution, SD card support, and more. The tablet device will also be accompanied by a new stationary device (new Xbox?), supporting full Direct3D 11 support, 4 USB 3.0 ports, 250 GB disk drive, and more. Check out the specification sheets below:

Additionally to the leaked document that Shifted2u published today, LiveSide also managed to get another document that reflects the information as provided in the above document but they think it’s rather older than the one published by Shifted2U.

We actually managed to obtain another document which corroborates with the above information, although this one is marked as “provisionary” and may be slightly older than the one above, but nonetheless shows the same Xbox Surface branding and similar specifications. It also shows logos from AMD, IBM, as well as Texas Instruments, potentially showing the manufacturers who supplies the various hardware parts and chipsets. Take particular note at the second-last bullet point, indicating that the tablet may have Kinect motion sensing technologies built-in:

Well it’s really noticeable factor that the timing of these leaks is interestingly quite prior to the Monday June 18th event from Microsoft. It was already in speculations that Microsoft may announce a tablet or tablets during this event. Given the event is to be held in Los Angeles. The event is just next in the timeline. Just wait and watch what Microsoft brings on.
