It looks like Microsoft plans to launch its first major update to Windows 8, dubbed Windows 8.1, a year after the OS debuted in October. Microsoft hasn’t officially disclosed the dates and Windows 8.1 Preview is available now. But a new report suggests that an October release date for the final build of Windows 8.1 is in sight.
Sources familiar with Microsoft’s plans have told The Verge and ZDNet that the Release to Manufacturing (RTM) edition will debut as early as this month, but the final build for consumers won’t roll out until October. This update will reportedly coincide with new devices from Microsoft’s partners, including 7- and 8-inch gadgets. Microsoft began to shift its emphasis toward smaller slates earlier this summer at Computex in Taiwan when it announced that 7- and 8-inch devices running Windows 8 and Windows RT will get its Office suite for free.
