Microsoft to Open Windows Stores at Best Buy


Microsoft and Best Buy announced a strategic partnership to create the Windows Stores at 500 Best Buy locations across the United States and in more than 100 Best Buy and Future Shop locations in Canada.

Ranging in size from 1,500 square feet to 2,200 square feet, the Windows Store will include Windows-based tablets and PCs, Windows Phones, Microsoft Office, Xbox, and more. Each store will feature a space highlighting a variety of Windows scenarios across devices; a showcase section with the latest Windows-based PC form factors such as ultrabooks, convertibles, detachables and all-in-ones — including portable devices; and a standalone area featuring Microsoft Surface.

In addition to the dedicated Microsoft specialists already working across Best Buy locations, the alliance will add more than 1,200 Best Buy Microsoft-trained sales associates to create an engaging customer experience at scale.
