HTC launch Windows tablet with RT in 2013

While

Windows RT reviews have not been entirely positive, several companies committed to the platform. According to information published by Bloomberg , HTC released two tablets with Microsoft’s operating system for ARM-based hardware. The devices come in 2013 and have screens 7 and 12 inches.

concerning equipment would not have much news, but would work with Qualcomm chips. Besides the smaller model would be able to make phone calls. With regard to the presentation and launch dates not exist detail, but this will change with the start of a new cycle of international events.

Apparently the original idea was to introduce HTC tablets with Windows 8, but finally opted for Windows RT due to high production costs and sales. According to official estimates, the Intel hardware devices cost about $ 1,000 each on its arrival in stores.

Taiwanese firm experience in the tablet market was not the best. HTC Flyer Android 2.3.3 debuted in May 2011 but production was discontinued in December of that year. In part is logical that the company try again , since almost all the exponents in the technology sector have at least one model in their catalog.

not forget that HTC has signed an agreement with UEFA to become “official supplier of smartphones and tablets” European football’s highest body. The next three seasons Champions League and Europa League will be a showcase for luxury Asian company that advertises any new product.

RT Windows

be the right choice for a successful return to the world of tablets?
