Microsoft to Host Special Occasion on September 21st
As summer comes to an end, the upcoming busy fall season of tech events is approaching. Microsoft has taken the initiative by sending out invitations to a “special event” in New York City on September 21st, without disclosing any specific information about what to anticipate.
This could very well be Microsoft’s big fall hardware event, during which the company typically unveils its latest Surface devices and other gear. If so, that would mean Microsoft is moving back to its old late September spot after switching to an October date last year. In any case, given the company’s focus over the past year, it’s likely to talk quite a bit about its various AI endeavors during this presentation. We always have the opportunity to learn about new Windows 11 features as well.
The technology industry’s autumn calendar is taking shape. Apple usually introduces its latest iPhone models (which may or may not have USB-C charging ports this year) in early to mid-September, but has yet to confirm a date. Neither is Google, which is sure to reveal new Pixel devices at some point in the next month or two. Amazon is holding a hardware event on September 20, a day before Microsoft’s. In the meantime, we’ll learn more about Meta Quest 3 at Meta Connect on September 27th.
