Rumor:Microsoft testing Windows Phone 8 with dual-core Snapdragon S4

As was reported by TheVerge Microsoft engineers are testing the new MSM8960 chipset from Qualcomm on Windows Phone. The Dual Core clocked at 1.5Ghz should go into business with Windows Phone 8 in the second half of 2012.

Meanwhile it seems that the American operator Sprint is very interested in launching a new terminal operating system with Microsoft, but it should do so before the arrival of Windows Phone 8.The first manufacturer to have received the specifications for Sprint, LTE or more processor MSM8960, would your Nokia. It is therefore reasonable to expect the first dual-core Nokia in the second half of 2012?

Please note that this processor, better known as Qualcomm S4, these days at the Mobile World Congress is amazing some beating all the benchmarks and actual performance of NVidia Tegra 3 (quad core).
