Microsoft Windows Surface Phone 8!

It is what it is. A concept. Made by a private person over at deviantART.com

Still, it would be a worthy replacement of my Lumia when the time comes.

so sexy. i would love an MS made phone.

Personally, I don't think it looks or would feel better than a Lumia 800. Kinda reminds me of an Omnia 7 (though less rounded, of course), and the Lumia was a huge upgrade for me, visually and ergonomically.

Microsoft launch its new windows 8 operating system for mobile phone. Nokia will publish new phone on 5th September, 2012 and Samsung is currently working on its new 11 inch tablet which is also running on Windows 8 version.

Hmm... Maybe they're secretly waiting for Nokia's stock to drop even further. Whilst that sounds cruel, it also sounds very wise as a business.

If that was the plan its on hold now their market cap is up my a third in the last several weeks. They're not out of the woods yet but its looking better.

That is one **** of a sexy device!! If UK retailers had those in stock, they could do connected deals with a Microsoft Surface RT tablets

Aww man it's really nice however on the other side of the coin, it is just a concept - unless microsoft come out and release a Nexus-like Surface Line up of Windows Phone 8 devices there's no point drooling over a phone that doesnt physically exist... yet!

I wonder what Nokia will have in store for us on Sept 5th in terms of design...

Looks a lot like an iPhone 4 tbh. That's no bad thing, but I think they could do better.

If Microsoft were to release the pictured device, I'd buy one and most likely be compelled to have the same kind of inappropriate affection for it that John Malkovitch or Martin Scorsese have for Siri.

As pictured, it really does look remarkable.

I don't agree except from the front view straight on, and only if the display were off (obviously, there's no confusion between iOS and WP8). The non-glass back and non-antenna sides make it dramatically different otherwise.

I'm not sure if this is the right place, but since day 1 I had a question. Who has made the Surface? No, I mean the literal physical device. OEM if you like. Is it Acer?

Microsoft made the surface. designed and manufactured.

Good news.

It was made by Microsoft themselves, deep underground in a bunker.





.... no joke.

Could it be in the making? I really hope so!

Please be true. I have zero faith in Nokia ^_^.

if you are going to go square, do square. Ditch the oval buttons and oval openings. Make very small radiused corners on squares or trapezoids like the profile shape. Either way I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Can we combine the two threads on this?
