The launch of the newest Surface devices, which were announced in October of last year, is a welcome move by Microsoft for the Indian market. It"s worth noting that the company refrained from bringing its early generation of Surface lineup to the Indian market. In 2015, however, Microsoft had a change of heart and announced that it would introduce its Surface devices to the country.
