Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella in an extensive interview with ZDNet Resource Corp. outlined plans for the near future. First, Microsoft is not willing to repeat the mistakes of the past, and too much focus on a particular size computers. Windows 10 should be a single platform for desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, including low-cost products with a limited memory capacity. In addition, Microsoft does not want to be present in smartphones but their applications, it will offer users a cloud environment for the storage of their data with the ability to synchronize multiple devices belonging to the same owner.
Mobile segment opens up vast opportunities for Microsoft, and in the future, this statement will be revealed even more. Just now, the most common device, according to Nadella becomes a smartphone with a screen diagonal of about six inches, and its users can not deprive the attention, but in the future the focus can shift to the other device form factors. Windows 10 must demonstrate independence from the device form factor .
Nadella convinced that there will be competition among manufacturers who released similar Surface Hub and HoloLens device. In these segments, Microsoft is trying to claim the status of a trendsetter. Releasing devices with Windows company will, even if the majority of OEM-partners turn away from it. However, such persistence will not run counter to the needs of customers - Microsoft promises to listen to them. By the way, the decision of giving away Windows 10 license holders in the previous operating system Satya Nadella accepted in the hope of increasing the popularity of the platform in the smartphone segment. In any case, he believes that a universal platform attract developers, and the number of applications available for smartphones users will increase significantly.
Microsoft hopes to attract the attention of business users with new smartphones running Windows 10.
