Samsung To Launch Windows RT Tablet In October

Samsung has been doing very well with their Android based tablets, and now it would appear that the company has some other tablets in the works, which will be released later this year, although instead of Android these new tablets will come with Windows RT.

Samsung is working on a Windows RT based tablet, and the device is expected to launch in October, of course this has yet to be confirmed by Samsung.

With Windows RT announced, there are a range of OEMs that are building tablets based on this Microsoft operating system. According to a report by Bloomberg it appears that Samsung too is preparing a tablet based on the Windows RT operating system.HP on the other hand, will launch tablets running on Windows 8, which will be powered by a processor with x86 architecture.

Microsoft’s Windows 8 made its first appearance with its redesigned Metro user interface and it was instantly approved to be apt for tablets, rather than for desktops by many experts. The company also puts forth its tablet strategy by introducing the Windows RT (Windows 8 for ARM). Those who thought that with this strategy Microsoft would also change its pricing model for OEMs, will be disappointed, as Microsoft doesn’t plan to do so.

Windows RT is the first operating system version from Microsoft that is made for touchscreen devices and supports ARM chips, which consume less power than x86.
