Although a few days ago we learned a bit of disastrous news for Microsoft's intentions with their mobile devices, the Redmond objective is different and they have clear intentions to keep placing new bets that at some point allows them to have a greater market share.
They will not have it easy at all, and one of those attempts will surely be Windows Surface Phone, although this will not arrive, presumably, until next year 2017. What we know now is that Microsoft has made it clear that the company is committed to continuing to support Windows 10 Mobile for many years.
With a email sent to its partners and executives, Terry Myerson, vice president of the Windows and Devices division of Microsoft, has made it clear that they will continue to offer support to all those devices that are under Windows 10 Mobile.
Committed to bringing Windows 10 to mobile devices with small screens and ARM processors. They believe in the values of their product and they are firm in their decisions to continue supporting the Windows 10 Mobile platform for many years as an email sent by Myerson collects. A statement that comes at the same time as those doubts of some of its partners when knowing these negative figures in relation to the mobile division of the company.
What we also hope that Microsoft do not hold onto a burning stick such as the Surface Phone and take enough time to launch a device that really grabs attention and is able to expand on that great success achieved with the Surface tablets. It will be difficult, since the economy rules and is the one that usually puts pressure on that timeline that will be ahead. We know that April 2017 is the date chosen for the Surface, so if you advance it, we could be facing that "burning stick."
