If they launched a Tablet
Windows RT is going through a black season in terms of sales, as many companies like Asus, Dell and Lenovo have reduced the price of their tablets with this operating system to encourage sales a bit. But even so, the highlight for them seems to be in Windows 8, and not in RT.
The only Tablet that came from a mobile company and not a computer company was the Samsung Ativ Tab, but this is a special case, since Samsung itself has not shown real interest in making the product took off, but you've launched it and left it out there. Could, then, be the death of Windows RT? Well, if there are no companies to endorse it, naturally Windows 8 would push it past it, however, there are still two cards in hand that can turn the wheel on this issue, we are talking about HTC and Nokia.
HTC on the one hand it seems that now it has taken an interest in making a Tablet with Windows RT, in order to enter this market, we believed that it would not be encouraged since its position to experiment It's not very good, and you should focus on what works for you, like Windows Phone and Android.
From Nokia meanwhile, we always hoped that it would launch a Tablet, rumors come and go, but for now there is nothing concrete. The same Nokia has said that the possibility is open, and images of designs and similar things of a Finnish Tablet have already been leaked.
HTC and Nokia have it in their favor that they have shown an eye for design, products like the HTC 8X and Nokia Lumia 920 They show it. Today's tablet market is pretty tight and saturated, getting something attention-grabbing out can be a big factor here, and HTC and Nokia can do well doing this.
Another advantage they have is that they can play with the Microsoft ecosystem and offer advantages between terminals with Windows Phone and tablets with Windows RT : exclusive software, tools that work between the mobile and the Tablet, and many other things. I wouldn't be surprised if it might be selling bundles of the HTC 8X and a Windows RT Tablet from the same company.
But of course, things are not so easy out there, Apple and Samsung already have a fairly positioned market with their iPad and Galaxy Tab. We already know the iPad well, a more than robust product, but against its high price, the Galaxy Tab, meanwhile, drops in some things to accommodate the price, in addition, it makes good use of the Android operating system.
If HTC and Nokia want to fight against them, they will have to find a way to compete on price, everyone knows Windows, and if we add to that an attractive design and a competitive price, the public could look favorably on these tablets.
And we must not forget the market for 7-inch tablets, which has seen significant growth thanks to low sales prices, Google Nexus 7, Kindle Fire are doing their thing here. On this side, things may be more difficult, since with such low prices, HTC and Nokia are going to have to sacrifice things in order not to increase costs, and it is the final product may not be as robust.
Answering the question above, could HTC and Nokia kickstart Windows RT? The answer for me is yes, but they must know how to move their chips in order to attract the public's attention. Design and Price, in my opinion you should focus on these two things, if you do, we may see interesting results.
