The boat began to fall for the Microsoft. Confirming what the agency told Reuters on the operators lack of interest in Windows Phone, LG decided to "abandon" the platform. In a press release, LG said that the total number of handsets sold with Windows Phone is not significant. This is not worth continuing to invest in the platform. On that note, LG says it plans to concentrate on Android smartphones now able to attract new consumers.
The hardware requirements for smartphones that run Windows Phone complicate sales. With 1 GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM and at least 8 GB in Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, the platform did not become a viable option for inputs. Only recently the company lowered the requirements for 256 MB of RAM and 4 GB of internal memory.
Anyway, the participation of LG is not very large in the system enjanelado: are only 2 handsets, all the first generation. In the U.S., Nokia and HTC are in front of the small market share of Windows Phone. The decision applies only to the line of smartphones.
It's a shame. The Windows Phone is a platform with good promises, and in some respects better than iOS and even Android. Even the Tecnoblog has a special opening windows where our editors Thássius Veloso, Thiago Mobilon report their experiences with the platform. Have checked?
