Microsoft Surface Tablet Revenue Just $853m Microsoft Reveals

SlashGear’s Chris Davies reports that Microsoft made a paltry $853m in revenue from Surface tablets in its 2013 fiscal year, a disappointing figure that failed to even cover the company’s $900m inventory adjustment charge for the slow selling Surface RT. The figures, confirmed in Microsoft’s most recent 10K filing, paint an underwhelming picture of the Windows 8 and Windows RT tablets, though doesnt specify exactly how many units have been sold.

Davies cites rumor scuttlebutt that a new range of second-gen Surface tablets will still run either Windows RT or Windows 8, with a broader choice of processors and possibly also LTE-equipped versions, along with 7-inch versions to challenge the Nexus 7 and iPad mini.
