Microsoft Elevates the 2-in-1 Game With New Surface Devices

During an online event yesterday, Microsoft unveiled the latest generation of Surface tablets, laptops, and accessories. The company’s EVP & Chief Product Officer, Panos Panay, introduced eight new devices, all of which will be released in October, and they look promising. The list of Microsoft Surface products that were shown at the event includes the Microsoft Ocean Plastic Mouse ($24.99), the Surface Laptop Studio ($1,599.99), the Surface Go 3 ($399.99), the Surface Duo 2 ($1,499.99), the Surface Pro 8 ($1,099.99), and the Surface Slim Pen 2 ($129.99).

Microsoft also made it a goal to be inclusive with its product design, thanks to a new kit that helps people with disabilities more easily use any of the Surface devices. The Surface Adaptive Kit, which is due out later this year, contains raised stickers, port labels, a lanyard tab, and keycaps to help people with vision impairment distinguish the different keys on their keyboard.

Microsoft introduced the second-generation, Android-based Surface Duo 2 mobile device, which unfolds into two screens that can run different apps simultaneously, as well as nano-coated 3D glass to give onscreen colors more definition, an 8.3-inch display, and a glance bar on the side that displays notifications. It works with the new Slim Pen 2 and has a pen cover that secures the pen to the back of the phone. This mobile device also has a camera with ultra-wide-angle capability and gives an instant preview of photos for you to see if you got the perfect shot on the fly. The Surface Duo 2 is compatible with LTE and 5G networks and syncs up seamlessly with other Surface devices, too, letting you easily transfer and access content between devices and pick up where you left off. Even phone apps can be viewed on Surface laptops and pinned to the taskbar, letting you copy and paste content from the Surface Duo 2 directly into other apps on Windows 11.

Capitalizing on the Wearable Turnover

While   smartphones   have traditionally led the way when it comes to   connected devices , the rapid rise of   hearables   and wearables and their growing popularity amongst tech savvy consumers is widening the breadth of consumer connected devices. According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), in 2021 the wearables market grew 20 percent year over year with total shipments reaching 533 million units.  With more hearable and wearable product options being introduced to the  market  at a variety of price points, retailers can offer customers more opportunities to  upgrade  to the next generation of smart watches, fitness trackers, earbuds, etc. It’s a great time to begin cultivating the secondary device ecosystem for these devices, using the thriving trade-in market for smartphones as the blueprint for capturing the latent value in pre-owned products while providing incentives for customers to upgrade to new devices.   Factors  Driving Market Growth    The growth in the hearab

1MORE EVO’s Hi-Fi Audio

Image
  If COVID-19 taught us anything, it’s our need to stay connected. Our workplace and lives shifted online, and technology adapted to our demands: Zoom took center stage;   computers   improved; we bought ring lights and headphones; we spent more time texting and on social media. We all learned how to stay connected to the world by connecting to our  technology . However, we shouldn’t have to sacrifice our connection to technology as we shift back to in-person activities and rekindle our human connections face-to-face. That’s where 1MORE EVO earbuds come into play. 1MORE EVO headphones deliver H-Fi sound with adaptive active noise cancellation (ANC), so users can stay connected to the world and comes equipped with six mics for those still working over   zoom .   How It Works:   As I unboxed the 1MORE EVO headphones, I was shocked at its ability to balance the aesthetic with the informational. Sketches of the headphones and its various features artistically coat the box’s interior but ev

How Retailers Can Capitalize on the Inflation Reduction Act

  In 2021,   EV   sales totaled   6.6 million or 8.6 percent  of all new car sales and that number is only expected to increase over the coming years after the   Inflation Reduction Act  was signed into law earlier this month. The new measure features funding for over 500,000 new EV chargers and provides a slew of incentives for customers and manufacturers alike. The target of the new legislature is to get more low-income consumers into electric vehicles to increase mass adoption of the cars and to buck the image of EVs as unobtainable luxury vehicles. California, one of the states on the forefront of pushing for EV adaptation has a program awarding low-income customers nearly $17,500 towards purchasing a used EV.  The Inflation Reduction Act is the first step in the Biden administration’s goal of reaching half of all new cars sold being electric by 2030. While EVs are becoming increasingly popular in states such as California and Massachusetts, progress is lacking across much of middl
