Have to say, Apple let the Tablet PC camp last year's launch of the iPad mini increasingly towards miniaturization in the last quarter, 8 inches Tablet PC sales have reached 47.5%, so well data means that in 2013 , the vendor's main concern about the inevitable small size of the tablet market in less than 8 inches, and in the new market for Microsoft how to do it?
Microsoft partners want?
Hardware OEM manufacturers think tablet PCs is growing rapidly, many PC makers have said the core of their attention from the bulky notebook to Tablet PC . Microsoft is a core partner of the OEM manufacturers, and its task is its additions to the software tools to meet the needs of the market.
But this scenario did not happen for all of Microsoft's partners at the same time, there has been a huge challenge, and that is Windows 8 does not have amazing sales figures, of course, also did not like the laptop poor data. It is estimated that the traditional PC sales this year will reach 10%.
Production month laptop Windows8 Tablet PC sold is not good, and this is where the problem lies.
Tablet PC, compared to today's Windows 8 requires more noticeable, and more feasible solution, however, does not include mixing plate or is flipped flat solutions, just the solution of the conventional flat.
If more energy into the 8 inches tablet solutions, Microsoft must be able to do. Which apparently is also a leadership trend, if Microsoft can come up with a software solution in this size, it will be able to like the market and its collaborators genuine, their software is able to meet the market required.
The Microsoft risk of irrelevant
Microsoft behind the biggest challenge and risk is irrelevant, if they postpone or simply do not have the R & D for 8 inches tablet software solutions, Microsoft partners will have to find alternative places.
Now, if you're a hardware OEM manufacturers, your choice is to support Google or Microsoft, if the hardware OEM manufacturers do not believe Windows solutions can help them to remain competitive in a certain period of time, Andrews will their choice. HP Slate 7 Android Tablet is the best explanation of the problems mentioned above.
Now, imagine the following, this product is selling well, HP is its sales and dancing, what reason is there to support this eight inches below the product back to Microsoft do?
Microsoft lost the attention of the IT industry it?
Samsung has done a lot of work, through the Samsung enterprise solutions, when Samsung devices continue loved by enterprise IT managers are more willing to support the version of the vendor Andrews system, then Microsoft will lose its slogan "IT prefer Microsoft . "
Hardware OEM manufacturers efforts to solid Andrews market suppliers will also be more in the Android market investment, rather than in the Windows OS market.
Microsoft's main partners are also able to do like Samsung Android tablet market deployment, bring each vendor a strategic differentiation and value-added. But this makes Windows more low for their degree of importance.
Microsoft needs to think about miniaturization
The most basic is that Microsoft can not ignore the following eight inches Tablet PC market, holding a smaller size tablet PC portable family particularly likes traveling.
We have seen the enormous benefits of the tablet market in less than 8 inches, health care, education, sales and other market segments, Microsoft is far from the longer this growth, its difficult it is to climb out from the abyss.
