Microsoft officially invited the media to "attend a small party", which seems to imply the introduction of a 7.5-inch suface Mini based on Qualcomm chips. New News about the event: on May 20, a new Surface based on Intel chips will also meet with you.

The source of the chip industry affirmed this assertion, and he also believed that the new product was equipped with Intel's Haswell processor. At present Microsoft's only Surface Pro Series uses Intel chips, where Surface Pro 2 is the 4th-generation Intel Core i5 processor.

Another source said the new product is not a small size equipment.

Microsoft has been trying to fight the tablet dominance of Apple, the 300-dollar ipad Mini, which has gained very positive market feedback. Microsoft's move is designed to enrich its product offerings, but it could also further divide the user experience of its tablet device and bring negative effects. After all, unlike Apple, which is known as "soft and hard", Microsoft is working with third parties to develop tablet devices. What kind of effect the strategy will have, but also need to test the market and time.
