Microsoft slashes Surface RT price by 30% due to sluggish sales, prepares to launch updated Surface RT and Pro tablets
2013-07-15 16:39:35| Extremetech
In response to sluggish sales, Microsoft has axed the price of its Surface RT tablet by 30%. The 32GB Surface RT, which used to cost $500, is now just $350.The Surface Pro, with its chunky dimensions and weak battery life, is still priced at $1000. In other news, Microsoft has also confirmed that the Surface RT and Pro will be updated, probably alongside the release of Windows 8.1 and the Xbox One. Whether either of these moves will actually make Microsoft's crippled, Metro-only Windows RT tablet useful remains to be seen.
