Microsoft Surface Phone: Microsoft's Next Flagship?

Microsoft has plans to bring a surface phone just like their tablet-PCs early 2017. The phone will reportedly feature Windows 10. There could be around three variants and will reportedly be the "flagship".

Microsoft although have mentioned that they're not currently focusing on phone division for this year, it's pretty evident that this will be a reality in 2017. Microsoft's windows 10 Mobile OS being developed day-by-day suggests that this is actually in-plans for the American Software giants. This might bring an end to average phones from the "Lumia" series since Microsoft have hammered more developments of mid-range Lumia devices.

Although they did announce the 650 reportedly costing a whopping 15,000INR for a mediocre Snapdragon 212 and a 1GB ram. Microsoft will give developers more time to improve their apps and make it more interactive. This will also give OEM partners to position themselves for new hardware announcements etc. Microsoft also need to bounce back strongly to shock the smartphone market.

The "Redstone 2" is what it'll be named. Microsoft's new hard ware to the smarphone space needs a better impact than their previous announcements which hardly excited the user-base. Microsoft is also encouraging its partners to get on board with Windows 10 Mobile compete with others.

The Lumia line still is preferred devices in the Windows Phone market with around more than 90 percent. There won't be any new devices for this year from the American giant and might complete fade out Lumia sequels indefinitely. Microsoft are now more concentrated on getting their applications perfected to other operating systems Android and iOs. While this move is a bummer for all of us, Microsoft are for now not giving a damn about their own user base while this is for sure going to impact their future sales. Well, there's still lot of time for 2017!
