[[File:Surface RT on Boeing 733-800 (Virgin Australia) - cropped.jpg|thumb|right|[[Surface (2012)|Surface RT]]是微软配合Windows RT推出的第一方硬件设备]]

微软对Windows RT设备的生产和开发都进行了严格的控制，OEM厂商们要推出Windows RT设备就必须要遵循微软给出的规格，并和微软共同设计设备，设备中的部分组件也只能采用“经批准”的型号。在微软的开发计划中，共有三家ARM芯片设计商向Windows RT设备提供SoC。不过，为确保硬件质量控制和发布时的设备数量，每家芯片设计商最多只能同时和两家OEM合作推出首批设备。其中[[高通]]会和[[三星電子|三星]]及[[惠普]]合作，[[英伟达]]会和[[華碩|华硕]]及[[联想]]合作，[[德州仪器]]则会和[[东芝]]合作。除此之外，微软自己也和英伟达合作推出了[[Surface (2012)|Surface]]（后更名为”Surface RT“），其是首款直接由微软制造和销售的Windows设备<ref name="cnet-mscontrol">{{cite web |title=How Microsoft became a control freak with tablet makers |url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-10805_3-57561849-75/how-microsoft-became-a-control-freak-with-tablet-makers/ |last=Tibken |first=Shara |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130104112603/http://news.cnet.com/8301-10805_3-57561849-75/how-microsoft-became-a-control-freak-with-tablet-makers/ |archive-date=2013-01-04 |access-date=2013-01-11 |publisher=CNET}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Epstein|first=Zach|url=http://www.bgr.com/2012/06/20/microsoft-surface-tablet-ploy-acer-stan-shih/|title=Microsoft's tablet efforts are fleeting, says Acer founder.|work=[[Boy Genius Report]]|date=2012-06-20|access-date=2025-09-09|archive-date=2012-11-02|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121102155411/http://bgr.com/2012/06/20/microsoft-surface-tablet-ploy-acer-stan-shih/|dead-url=no}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.engadget.com/2012/06/18/microsoft-tablet-announced/|title=Microsoft reveals its own Windows 8 tablet: meet the new Surface for Windows RT|date=2012-06-18|publisher=Engadget|access-date=2012-06-20|archive-date=2012-06-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120620221118/http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/18/microsoft-tablet-announced/|dead-url=no}}</ref>。Windows RT面向的ARMv7架构是一个[[32位元|32位]]的处理器平台<ref name="The Windows RT Review"/>。而在Windows RT发布后不久，[[Arm (企业)|安谋控股]]还称会和微软合作，使Windows RT支持[[64位元|64位]]的[[AArch64]]架构<ref name=pcw-64bitrt>{{cite web|title=ARM, Microsoft collaborating on 64-bit Windows version|url=http://www.pcworld.com/article/2013405/arm-microsoft-collaborating-on-64bit-windows-version.html|work=PC World|access-date=2013-10-28|archive-date=2013-09-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130922043933/http://www.pcworld.com/article/2013405/arm-microsoft-collaborating-on-64bit-windows-version.html|dead-url=no}}</ref>。

有多家硬件合作商在中途退出了Windows RT项目，首当其冲的就是东芝和德州仪器。德州仪器后来还更进一步的宣布放弃其[[OMAP|消费级移动ARM SoC业务]]，转而专注于[[嵌入式系统]]<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-tis-move-out-of-smartphones-into-servers-highlights-chip-issues/|title=How TI's move out of smartphones into servers highlights chip issues|last=Branscombe|first=Mary|date=2012-11-16|work=ZDNet|access-date=2018-04-09|language=en|archive-date=2021-03-09|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210309033339/https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-tis-move-out-of-smartphones-into-servers-highlights-chip-issues/|dead-url=no}}</ref>。惠普随后也退出了该项目，原因是其认为使用英特尔移动芯片的x86平板电脑比ARM平板更适用于商务用途，[[戴尔]]则在此时入局取代了惠普的位置<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://tablet-news.com/dell-could-replace-hp-as-windows-rt-tablet-maker/|title=Dell Could Replace HP As Windows RT Tablet Maker - Tablet News|last=Iorga|first=Radu|date=2012-07-26|work=Tablet News|access-date=2018-04-09|language=en-US|archive-date=2020-01-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200113094308/https://tablet-news.com/dell-could-replace-hp-as-windows-rt-tablet-maker/|dead-url=no}}</ref>。[[宏碁]]原本也计划在推出旗下Windows 8设备的同时也推出一款Windows RT设备，但在看到Surface受到市场褒贬不一的反应之后，宏碁还是决定把Windows RT设备的计划推迟到2013年第二季度<ref name="acer-nortq2">{{cite news|title=Acer delays Windows RT tablets over Surface concerns|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20156061|work=BBC News|date=2012-10-31|access-date=2013-01-11|archive-date=2013-01-16|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130116172839/http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20156061|dead-url=no}}</ref>。宏碁措手不及的反应也激起了市场对Surface“可能搅乱Windows生态系统和对其他品牌造成负面影响”的担忧<ref name=cnet-mscontrol/><ref>{{Cite journal |author=田东 |title=来，我们聊聊Windows 8 |url=https://archive.org/details/mic2012-2013/2012/%E5%BE%AE%E5%9E%8B%E8%AE%A1%E7%AE%97%E6%9C%BA%202012%E5%B9%B412%E6%9C%88%E4%B8%8A/page/n9/mode/2up |journal=[[微型计算机 (杂志)|微型计算机]] |date=2012-12-01 |issue=520 |page=9-10}}</ref>。

=== 被取消的设备 ===
微软曾开发过一款“迷你”款式的Surface平板，并将其命名为[[Surface Mini]]。其原计划应同[[Surface Pro 3]]一起在2014年5月发布，尽管已经开发完毕，但微软最后还是在发布前一刻取消了这款设备<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://pocketnow.com/2014/10/01/surface-mini-was-cancelled|title=Thank goodness the Surface Mini was cancelled|last=Doud|first=Adam|date=2014-10-01|work=Pocketnow|access-date=2018-04-09|language=en-US|archive-date=2018-07-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180722213817/http://pocketnow.com/2014/10/01/surface-mini-was-cancelled|url-status=dead}}</ref>。Surface Mini的图片后来在2017年6月泄露，根据这些图片的信息，其配置有高通骁龙800和一块8英寸的显示屏，同时支持[[Surface Pen]]<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.windowscentral.com/microsofts-canceled-surface-mini-photos-exclusive|title=This is Microsoft's canceled Surface Mini (exclusive photos and details)|last=Bowden|first=Zac|date=2017-07-30|work=Windows Central|access-date=2018-04-09|language=en|archive-date=2022-04-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220404062649/https://www.windowscentral.com/microsofts-canceled-surface-mini-photos-exclusive|dead-url=no}}</ref>。
