LG abandons Windows Phone, will focus on Android Phones for now

In the past few hours LG told the Korea Herald had no future plans regarding Windows Phone based smartphones, noting that " The total units of Windows Phone sold in the global market is not a significant figure. " .

The interview with the Herald, however, continued reassurance by LG will continue its efforts on research and development for the Microsoft system.

From these words it can be assumed then a long pause where LG will not launch any Windows smartphone, probably jumping the launch of Windows Phone 8 and waiting for a "silent" eventual success of the OS made in Redmond.

LG then leave in the hands of Nokia, Samsung and HTC the fate of Windows Phone, a major loss for the mobile OS where the cheapest devices were precisely those of the Korean manufacturer.
