Microsoft Surface, Sales of 1.7 million units in 8 months

Microsoft reveals the sales made in the American market from the launch of the Surface family tablets. Overall, there were 1.7 million sales in the eight months since the first day of the release of these tablets. This means that Microsoft had $ 853 million profit.

In contrast, Apple sold 14.6 million iPads in the second quarter of 2013 alone. Sales of Android tablets were even higher than that. Steve Ballmer  (CEO of Microsoft) said that Microsoft built more units than they could sell. However, the tablets market is showing signs of growth, and we expect to see the next generation of Surface soon. It is obvious that Microsoft will not abandon the battle because of low sales. Below you may find the Microsoft Surface RT model.
