Microsoft is hosting a special hardware event on September 21, likely unveiling refreshed Surface devices alongside new AI features. The company will not run an official real-time livestream during the morning session, with full video on-demand rolling out later that afternoon.
Microsoft's Surface chief Panos Panay just made a shock departure right before the company's hardware showcase. Consumer marketing lead Yusuf Mehdi and silicon chief Pavan Davuluri are splitting his responsibilities, alongside a new team focused on AI web experiences for Windows. Why it matters: Microsoft is steering its PC and hardware roadmap away from risky hardware bets and fully toward AI integration.
