Microsoft Surface este linia de tablete Microsoft care ruleaza Windows, doua modele fiind disponibile in prezent pe piata: Microsoft Surface RT si Microsoft Surface Pro. Desi Microsoft nu a dezvaluit cifre privind vanzarile tabletei, iar cei de la Samsung s-au plans din cauza interesului scazut, se pare ca aproximativ 1.5 milioane de unitati ar fi fost cumparate de catre consumatori, 400.000 dintre ele fiind Microsoft Surface Pro. Desi multi spun ca vanzarile sunt slabe, eu spun ca pentru o tableta noua, cu un sistem de operare, RT-ul, ce are putine aplicatii, vanzarile sunt bune, mult mai bune decat ale primelor tablete Android.
Microsoft has sold about 1.5 million Surface devices, people with knowledge of the company’s sales said, a slow start in its bid to crack the fast-growing tablet market to make up for slumping personal-computer demand. Microsoft has sold little more than a million of the Surface RT version and about 400,000 Surface Pros since their debuts, according to three people, who asked not to be named because sales haven’t yet been made public. The company had ordered about 3 million Surface RTs, they said. Brent Thill, an analyst at UBS AG, had initially projected that Microsoft would sell 2 million Surface RT devices in the December quarter alone.
Microsoft ar fi comandat de 2 ori mai multe tablete decat s-au vandut pana acum, insa consumatorii nu au fost chiar atat de incantati de produs, insa inceputul este bun in opinia mea si cred ca in viitor linia de produse poate avea succes mai mare daca este sustinuta corespunzator.
