Multiple Windows Phone and Microsoft sources have informed us that there are no new devices left in the pipeline and that Microsoft has nothing left for this year. Of course, its not like Microsoft has ever kept a secret till it launched a product. Ever. Cough cough surface 1/Surface pro 3 cough cough.
The point here is, Microsoft is perfectly capable of holding its cards to its chest.
So how does this relate to Windows Phone? Remember the McLaren which was said to be cancelled?
There were said to be two of them and I did hear from a Microsoft employee (now former) that one was a 1520 equipped with 3d touch which he didn't find very useful .
Eventually the project was revealed to be cancelled.... or was it?
We know that Microsoft is
which was not predicted by any one "in the know". We know that April 2015 is much too far way to be classed as soon by any metric so what's going on here?
Perhaps it was a simple bait and switch. Yes the 3D touch tech was canned but perhaps the device itself lives on sans the gimmickry. Microsoft has of course fed the bloggers with enough leaks so as to keep them from looking too deeply .
When will this device be released? Perhaps next month with GDR2 AND the smartband, which may be imminent and in the 8.15 branch of the OS indicating a relatively huge jump.
Maybe...
