On October 26th, Microsoft finally opened its new store in New York City. The new Microsoft Store is located at 677 Fifth Avenue, between 53rd and 54th Streets. This is the 113th store the company opens and it’s the largest store the company has opened.
I had the chance to take a tour of the new Microsoft Store and took a bunch of pictures that you can check in this article.
As you walk into the store, you will notice that the new Surface Book, Surface Pro 4, Microsoft Band 2, and even the new Lumia phones are front and center. Microsoft also has a HoloLens in the store that you can check out — unfortunately it’s a display only item.
The store is not just about Microsoft branded products, you will also find many computer brands and a lot of giant curved displays from LG and Dell. There is even a great Continuum demo that anyone can try with the new Lumia phones.
Hidden behind the main elevator, the store even has an 84-inch Surface Hub demo, something you definitely have to check it out.
The second floor is all about Xbox, accessories, and learning. On this floor, you’ll find everything you need for your ultimate Xbox One experience. The company also shows off various computer accessories, and on the front you have the training area.
The third floor is reserved for Dell products. On this floor, you can find anything you need from a Thin client, latest Dell XPS laptop and 2-in-1 devices, desktops, and a great selection of gaming rigs.
There are two other floors in this Store, but they are reserved for Microsoft use.
After a long time of wait, the Microsoft Store finally opened in New York City. The company has done a great job with the store, everything looks amazing and it’s definitely a place you need to come and visit if you live nearby, or whenever you visit New York City — and of course, to buy your new gadgets.
