During the last Barcelona mobile fair, the Chinese Huawei confirmed to us that this 2012 was marked in the manufacturer's plans as a strategic year in the manufacturer's plans to significantly expand its global market share in the smart mobile segment .
The bet is firm, and they have even acquired their own quad-core processor development division to cut ties of dependency with other companies. In this line, Android is the workhorse in which they place a large part of their trust, and in fact, this year we would see a complete and very interesting family of devices that play in the green robot league. However, not only the Google ecosystem does Huawei intend to live. At least, that is how it can be deduced from the information revealed by the Asian medium WPDang.
According to this publication, from Huawei they would have already begun to design a work team focused on the development of terminals prepared to work with Windows Phone. But in this case, the company's efforts would not be destined to manufacture devices with the current version of the system, Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, but would have deposited its intentions in the next big update that we would know, supposedly, from next month of October: Windows Phone 8 Apollo.
In total, about 70 people would currently be involved in the start-up of a new production line, although at the moment it is impossible to specify what technical profile or what characteristics the terminal or terminals with which Huawei will debut in this ecosystem would have.
From Unwired View they have detailed at least two of the plans that are reserved for this new family. To begin with, the launch of the first terminals of this range would reach the market before the end of this year, and at least one of the devices could have a price slightly below 300 dollars "" that is, about 225 euros, at current change ””. Beyond this, everything is unknown.
In recent months, the Chinese manufacturer Huawei has changed its strategy within the telephony sector, going from being a firm that focused a large part of its efforts on the development of cheap white-label devices for operators to trying to position itself with its Own brand.
As part of their new plans, a couple of months ago we met three of the ranges with which they will try to stand up to the rest of the manufacturers throughout the year. Thus, first we will see the Huawei Ascend P1 on the market, a model that presents Android 4.0 in a dual-core terminal with a 4.3-inch screen and a very light thickness. We will also see quad-core mobiles, the Huawei Ascend D Quad, whose strategy would also go through an edition with a dual-core chip. We will have to wait to see if any of these devices is adapted for the start of the manufacturer in the range of terminals with Windows Phone.
