The future of windows 8 touch devices
When Microsoft released windows 8 on October 2012, it expected that it will make a great sales in short time but the result was disappointed for Microsoft.
For me I think that there are many reasons why the sales of touch devices with windows 8 is still too low comparing to iPad and android tablets:
1- A lot of users still uncomfortable with windows 8 (It is now a few weeks before releasing windows 8.1.Microsoft is trying to solve issues that make a lot of users uncomfortable with windows 8)
2- High price of this devices
3- The store of windows 8 is still too weak comparing to apple store and google play and for normal windows desktop applications not easy to use with touch screens.
4- The very late decision of Microsoft to enter that market.as a result a lot of people when they about tablet. They think first with iPad or android tablets.
But I think this will change in the near future. We still need our normal PCs to work, we still need multitasking OS, and we still need MS Word to write our CVs and excel to make calculations. And in my opinion iPad and android tablets can`t be used in production. They just still a fast way to access internet, read books and play.
And what if your tablet is your production or work device too. That why I think that in the near future window8 touch devices will beat the other tablets in the market.
