New Delhi: Micromax is all set to announce its new smartphone series today at its event in New Delhi. Smartphones under the new series will be based on Windows Phone 8.1 operating system.
According to an executive from Micromax, the company will announce 2-3 Windows Phone smartphones at the event. While there is no information on the pricing, but we expect them to be budget phones.
Speculations are rife that one of the devices will come with a 5-inch display. Besides the launch of Windows Phone smartphones, the company will also announce some new partnerships, said the executive.
Microsoft announced its partnership with India's homegrown handset maker Micromax at Microsoft's BUILD conference in San Francisco in April. This move is expected to intensify competition in the smartphone and tablets space.
The software giant has already announced that it will offer its Windows OS free to smartphone and tablet makers, a move that will help the firm compete with Google's Android and Apple's iOS in the fiercely competitive smart devices market.
