Acer officially announced the adoption of the Iconia W3, an 8-inch Windows 8 tablet device, at Computex 2013 this year. It also revealed that Microsoft will decentralize the hardware design specifications of the Windows 8 platform so that tablet devices as small as 8 inches can use this operating system. Will this kind of design development bring about a new wave of user experience? How do we view it?

Due to the launch of Acer Iconia W3, it is confirmed that Microsoft will relax the hardware design specifications of Windows 8, will no longer be limited to more than 10-inch devices, and can allow OEMs to launch a minimum of 7-inch or 8-inch tablet design, while the resolution is also relaxed to 720P Resolution. Therefore, as with the previous xpPhone mobile phone design of China Yiyin Group, it is now possible to allow users to take a "Windows 8 computer" with them in a flat form.
However, according to Acer's own positioning of Iconia W3 in advanced tablet products, it can be imagined that the most important thing is to focus on the dynamic brick interface tablet operation experience, not the traditional desktop interface usage mode. Therefore, if the Iconia W3 hardware device is to be used as a general PC, the keyboard must be additionally carried and connected via Bluetooth. Even USB peripherals such as a mouse and a USB flash drive need to be connected via a cable. Not to mention the design of 8-inch display screens in traditional desktop interface operations, it is difficult to directly select desktop items and menu contents with their fingers. 
Set for the actual situation, such as the Iconia W3 small size Windows 8 tablet will be used to compete with the Apple iPad, Google Android tablet, and more emphasis on the use of finger-based mode of use, and the use of the desktop environment will only be Become an additional function, not a major operating experience. However, this will test the number of apps in the current Windows Store, as well as the app's usefulness. Although the application performance of the current Microsoft online software market has increased, many content developers still choose the larger iOS or Android platform as the main development platform. Therefore, at the current stage of market development, the small-sized Windows 8 tablet may attract a lot of users' attention, but in actual use, it may encounter a dynamic brick interface and the app content can be used to select few (compared with iOS and Android platforms. In contrast, the traditional desktop interface is not easy to touch with fingers or use other devices. 
However, if it is to solve the temporary use of computer needs, and can be used with stylus pen, NFC near-field sensing and other peripheral applications, perhaps the small size of Windows 8 will be able to be used as an auxiliary device outside the laptop, but at this stage of development Looking at it, it may take some time for the market to accept it. As for the previous Microsoft response, the small-size Windows 8 tablet will not be developed towards the Phablet device, which will not directly affect the Windows Phone platform, and earlier Microsoft's statement on Build 2013, it also revealed that although Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 The platform adopts the same core architecture design, but it does not mean that there will be consolidation of the two software market, it also means that the two flat plates will not have a consolidation action.
