Microsoft Surface Phone: rumors swell

After the rumor relayed by the China Times on the output of a Microsoft Surface Phone for the start of 2013, news sources say that this smartphone does exist and that they have the information directly from the parent .

A few days ago, the China Times launched the rumor that Microsoft is preparing to launch its own smartphone , but the information remains implausible. This time sites BGR and WPCentral just add their stones to the building announcing hold information from asource located at Microsoft and confirming the existence of what they call the Phone area and is currently in phase test.

This rumor has not been denied by Microsoft , and the number of sources can lead to seriously consider this rumor . 

However, it remains surprising, since Microsoft has signed a partnership with four manufacturers of smartphones ( HTC , Nokia , Huawei and Samsung ) to deploy its new operating system, Windows Phone 8. The release of a Microsoft branded smartphone could overshadow products partners , especially as rumored, it would be a rather oriented smartphone upscale . It could be that Microsoft wants to adopt Google's strategy which, like tablets and Nexus Google Phone will release the tablet surface, and could enchainer with Surface Phone.
