Microsoft seems to be applying strict hardware norms it placed in original Windows Phone 7 gadgets to its forthcoming Windows 8 Operating System. Here is the list of Windows 8 tablet hardware requirements. Hardware buttons: Power, Rotation lock, Windows key, Volume up, Volume down.Screen Touch points: 5. Display: Minimum of 1366 x 768 pixel resolution at depth of 32 bits. Storage: Must have at least 10GB free space offered for the user. NFC: Must have “touch marks” for indicating where to tap. GPU: Direct3D 10 GPU with WDDM 1.2 driver. Camera: Capable of shooting 720p videos or better. Sensors: Light Sensor, Magnetometer, Accelerometer, Gyroscope. Others: WLAN, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0, Speakers. These requirements show Microsoft’s commitment in avoiding fragmentation amongst its peripherals to have universal experience amongst all users. Of course, it may also mean that Windows 8 PCs will be expensive than Android tablets due to required “extra stuff”.
