Upcoming Windows Phone 2014 smartphones may the attraction of 2014. Although Microsoft mobile OS did not feature any phones at the MWC 2014 in Barcelona, Windows phones are lining up for a spectacular show in San Francisco in April to unveil what's new for the Windows Phones suite.
Accprding to a report by IBT, "Microsoft's Build Developer Conference taking place from April 2 to 4 when Windows Phone updates will be released.
Microsoft's mobile OS may be the next thing in smartphones after Apple and Android have had their shot at making handsets to the point of saturation.
Certainly, consumers are looking for something new, and with Satya Nadella at the helm of Microsoft and Nokia a new acquisition at Redmond, the time may ripe for Windows Phone 8 to show off its might in the handset arena. Until now, former CEO Steve Ballmer was blamed for lackluster sales in the Windows Phone market and for not getting into the smartphone market early enough.
Nonetheless, the Lumia line of featured phones is still appealing, and could be a refreshing change to consumers who are tired of Apple and Android.
Nokia Lumia 1520 is another upcoming windows phone in 2014. This is a handset exclusively for camera lovers and video buffs. Would you believe this Lumia 1020 has a 41 MP Sensor, full manual control, optical image stabilization and a Xenon flash. This is the ideal phone for indoors and outdoor photographs and you wouldn't have to worry about carrying a Cannon or Nikon with you.
Coupled with an appealing design, the Nokia Lumia 1020 has a matte finish and Gorilla Glass 3 for extra protection.In this range, clearly the Nexus 5, Samsung S4, and HTC One have strengths beyond the capacity of the Lumia 1020.
Next up in the line of upcoming windows phones for 2014 is Nokia Lumia 625. This Lumia might be on the low end of its siblings,but it has a fairly large display of 4.7" and its chasis made of plastic go nicely with its design.
The Nokia Lumia520 is the cheapest of the upcoming windows phone devices. This Lumia has a 4"display which packs a punch so that Microsoft's Live titles look nice and sharp. Plus, taking a look at the specs, Lumia 520 is outfitted with a 1GHz Snapdragon S4 processor and would you guess this is the identical chip that comes with Lumia 620; that's more than enough power you need for your feature rich games like 'Flappy Birds,' if that's available on Windows Phone apps.
