Microsoft could present new and smaller Surface at BUILD 2013

In June, Microsoft could present new tablet Surface diagonal between 7 and 9 inches. For the moment there are no details, but only different assumptions

At the Microsoft Build developer conference may be submitted new solutions Surface tablet, which should enrich the current range consists of Surface RT and Surface Pro. Both these tablets are equipped with 10.6-inch diagonal screen, but with different resolution: in the case of RT version it is a panel of 1366x768 pixels, while for the pro version has a resolution of choice 1.920x1080 pixels.

The two models also differ in the integrated platform and consequently for the operating system installed. In the case of RT version Microsoft has chosen the NVIDIA Tegra 3 creating an operating system capable of running on this type of architecture with a graphical interface very similar to that of Windows 8 Pro For Surface Pro models marketed include a Intel CPU Core i5-3317U and the operating system Windows 8 Pro Since February Surface RT is on sale in our country while the Pro version will be available in the coming weeks. A detailed review dedicated to Surface RT is available at this address.

Current models just described would add new versions of tablet Surface diagonal between 7 and 9 inches, a new area of the market that is capturing the attention of many manufacturers.There is no obviously more specifications, but you can make some assumptions.

The new models could use the latest Intel Atom CPU, solutions designed to be installed on tablets that Intel should make available to their own half of the current year. It is not to exclude the availability of models based on NVIDIA Tegra 4 SoC available as early as January that could be incorporated in new versions of Surface RT. The actual availability on the market, it will have re-evaluated, in fact by the presentation of a new SoC integration on devices and subsequent marketing usually spend several months.

These rumors and assumptions, although a version based on x86 architecture proposal appear to be attractive low price. BUILD is scheduled scheduled June 26 to 28, a few weeks after the Computex 2013 where previously one of the tablet will be the protagonist.
