Microsoft’s finally giving up on its massive Surface Hub touchscreen displays
Microsoft is reportedly ending production of its Surface Hub 3 collaborative office display and canceling plans for a Surface Hub 4, according to Windows Central. The extra-large digital whiteboard that included its own built-in PC was originally announced in 2015 ahead of the launch of Windows 10 and came in two sizes, 50 inches and 85 inches, priced at $8,000 and $20,000, respectively. It has outlasted former Surface leader Panos Panay, who left for Amazon in 2023, and other gone-but-not-forgotten Surface hardware like the Surface Studio all-in-one, Surface Duo, and Surface headphones.
Microsoft gave the Surface Hub line a few updates over its ten-year lifespan, including a modular design that allowed users to replace the internal components, like the processor and motherboard, without replacing the whole display. Pitched at times as Microsoft’s vision of the office of the future, the Surface Hub’s pricey place in the office never really materialized, particularly once the pandemic sped up the shift to remote and hybrid workspaces.
According to Windows Central, Microsoft and third-party sellers will continue selling the stock they have left of the Surface Hub 3. The Surface Hub 2S and Hub 3 will have support for driver and firmware updates until at least 2027.
