Inadvertently, a Microsoft employee revealed the fact that the Korean brand is preparing a smartphone, but also various other devices powerd by Microsoft.

 

Despite the fact that rumors are based on facts and that LG is a Microsoft partner, allegedly the Korean manufacturer is not considering attacking the market with more than one device. However, the phone could see daylight this year, it looks like LG plans to probe the ecosystem in 2014-2015 before jumping in.
