Microsoft Corporation has unveiled a
new generation of Windows, with a wide range of experiences designed to usher
in a new era of more personal computing, as well as two new devices designed to
extend the Windows experience from large screens to no screens.
Windows 10 will
be delivered as a service to offer a safer, innovative and updated experience
for the supported lifetime of the device. A free upgrade1 for
Windows 10 will be made available to customers running Windows 7, Windows 8.1
and Windows Phone 8.1, who upgrade in the first year.
CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella,
said “Windows 10 marks the beginning of the more personal computing era in the
mobile-first, cloud-first world”.
“Our ambition is for the 1.5 billion
people who are using Windows today to fall in love with Window 10 and for billions
more to decide to make Windows home.” Nadella added.
Windows 10 marks the beginning of
the more personal computing era, where technology disappears and people are at
the center. In this era, the mobility of the experience matters, not the
mobility of the device, and experiences should work in a seamless, familiar way
across devices. People should be able to naturally interact with technology as
they interact with other people — with voice, gestures and gaze. Protecting
privacy plays a pivotal role in delivering trustworthy experiences that put
people in control of their experience.
Office universal apps on Windows 10
deliver a touch-first experience across devices. New versions of Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, OneNote and Outlook are designed from the ground up to run on
Windows, built for touch, and offer the unmistakable Office experience
customers know and love.
With the familiar features for Office, people can
create and edit Word documents with ease. New inking features in PowerPoint let
people annotate slides in real time, and the new touch-first controls in Excel
make it easy to create and update spreadsheets without a keyboard or
mouse. The next version of the Office desktop suite is also currently in
development and Microsoft will have more to share in the coming months.
