Microsoft Surface is the tablet designed by Microsoft in response to the rest of the existing tablets on the market, but it failed to convince even that many people to buy it, although 3 different versions have been launched so far. Microsoft positioned the tablet Surface as a competitor for iPad or even MacBook Air, but his attempts to wean people off the products Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, or those Android, were always doomed to failure, so the giant from Redmond is ready to declare defeat.
Microsoft continues to see weak sales for its Surface Pro 3 tablet and is reportedly planning to cancel the product line since shipment performance has been far lower than expectations, according to sources from the upstream supply chain. Lacking a sufficient number of distribution partners, plus high prices, the first- and second-generation Surface tablets are estimated to have created losses of about US$1.7 billion, the sources noted.
Microsoft lost 1.7 billion dollars with the release of the first two versions of Microsoft Surface, and the sales of the third version they weren't as good as the company or the rest of the world expected. Although it was launched over 3 months and a half days ago, Microsoft Surface Pro 3 it did not register at least 1 million sales worldwide, so Microsoft is forced to completely abandon the project due to the lack of alternatives.
Microsoft tablets have always had high prices and less attractive functions than the rest of the competing tablets, and in the face of constant losses with the launch of these products, those from Microsoft don't really have any other alternatives.
