Microsoft is planning to detail the consumer features of Windows 10 at an event in January. While Microsoft will be present at the Consumer Electronics Show in early January, sources familiar with the company’s plans tell The Verge that Microsoft will hold a separate press event in late January to unveil the consumer preview of Windows 10. Microsoft previously promised "early 2015http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2014/09/30/announcing-windows-10/" for a discussion on consumer features, and it appears the company is on track.

Microsoft’s first unveiling of Windows 10 was a small low-key event in San Franciscohttp://live.theverge.com/microsoft-windows-9-event-live-blog/that lasted around an hour, but we’re told the company’s consumer feature unveiling will be more significant. Microsoft has a large number of features to discuss, including a new touch interface dubbed Continuumhttp://www.theverge.com/2014/9/30/6873963/windows-10-continuum-touch-interface. The software giant will also detail its plans for Windows phones and tablets, and possibly dashboard updates for its Xbox One gaming console. Windows 10 is designed to run across multiple devices, including PCs, tablets, phones, and the Xbox One. We understand Microsoft will announce the details of its Windows 10 consumer event before the end of the year.
