The company isn't satisfied with the way the business is going and it plans to make some changes to its tablet lineup
As part of its plans to step beyond the software industry, Microsoft is aggressively investing in the hardware business, and the Surface tablet lineup is living proof that the company is looking to get its own share of profit in a market that already belongs to Android and iOS devices.
Needless to say, Microsoft's Surface models haven't been really outstanding as far as sales are concerned, and the company is still believed to lose money with every tablet it sells these days.
As a result, the Redmond-based giant is looking into ways to reduce losses and one of the ways to do that could involve giving up on the Surface business entirely, according to a new report.
Digitimes reveals via “sources from the upstream supply chain” that Microsoft isn't pleased with the way Surface sales are going and “shipment performance has been until now far lower than expectations.”
