Accessories for a Microsoft Surface Mini up for sale on Amazon
The Microsoft Surface Mini tablet has been in the rumor mill for a while now, but we have learned very little about the purported tablet. It might have a 7-inch or 8-inch display, it might have a kick-stand, or it might not.
Last time we checked, this Microsoft product would likely keep the form factor of its larger sibling, but the “Mini” will be marketed as the tablet to have if you want to do a lot of note taking. Given that, we think a stylus will be part of the package too.
If the accessories that are available on Amazon are any indication, the tablet may end up being rather unassuming, which is fine. A good quality build does not necessarily require premium materials, and done right, it will keep the price competitive too, since the Surface Mini not only has to contend with the iPad mini, but a host of competent tablets from Samsung.
While we will not go so far as to tie that in to an actual release date for an actual tablet, it would be pretty silly to be selling accessories for a product not yet available.
