Xbox Surface tablet planned by Microsoft, reports say

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft may be adding a Xbox tablet to its Surface brand. Multiple sources confirmed ܫto that hardware planning for a 7-inch gamin🅷g tablet is underway within the software (and increasingly hardware) giant.

A supposedly leaked document which outlined the specifications of an Xbox Surface tablet were uncovered in June, just before Microsoft unveiled its initial line of Surface tablets. The Verge's sources indicated the specif꧙ications remain accurate, with a 1280x720 resolution, a custom ARM processor, and an altered version of the Windows kernel as opposed to a full-scale implementation of the operating system.

The tablet may support messaging and other typical mobile features, but its main focus will 🐬be on gaming. Microsoft has apparently l🐬ocked down several buildings in its Silicon Valley offices to allow for increased testing of the device, which will likely debut before Xbox 720.

A dedicated Xbox tablet would mesh with the Xbox 360's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SmartGlass functionality, perhaps allowing for incre♏ased communication between individual games on the tablet and console instead of just another screen for inter♕action.

The Xbox Surface tablet's form factor would put it in competition with Amazon's Kindle Fire HD as well as Apple's iPad Mini. A Microsoft spokesperso꧟n said the company does not comment on rumors and speculation when contacted by The Verge.
