Don’t expect a pair of Surface Earbuds under the Christmas tree this year: Microsoft has backtracked on its previous announcement that the devices would ship in time for the holiday season, and stated instead that the earbuds won’t launch before spring 2020.
The company’s chief product officer Panos Panay tweeted yesterday that getting “all the details right” for the product is taking more time than “we planned on”, without providing further details about the reasons for the delay.
