Microsoft’s next Surface event is October 2
Microsoft just sent out invites for its next big event. Set for October 2 in New York, the unveiling comes exactly a year after the company's last major Surface hardware launch. The timing is certainly right for one last major product push ahead of the holidays, as well.
Last year's big event featured the launch of the Surface Pro 6 hybrid, Surface Studio 2, some software announcements and the launch of the Surface Headphone line. There are plenty of entries in Microsoft's line that are due for a refresh, including Surface laptop and miniature Surface Go tablet.
The company also likes to launch at least one new product line at these things. As the Verge notes, the company's long-rumored dual-screen tablet certainly seems overripe at this point, which at least two years of product research under its belt.
The above save the day invite, which was sent out to reporters today, subtly alludes to the inclusion of several convertible form factors, while paying homage to the Windows 10 logo.
