The Microsoft Surface Phone

Windows Surface Phone Concept
Microsoft will introduce two new Lumia phones late next month, late February. They may also be coming out with another new phone called the Surface Phone, but it is uncertain when that will be. Microsoft only sells 1.7% of the smartphones on the international market. They're hoping they can can sell more cell phones by introducing some new ones, including this Surface Phone. It's supposed to be similar to Windows Surface tablets. How would this Surface Phone be different than the Windows Nokia phones? This Surface phone would use the same software that the Nokia does; Windows 10 mobile. The Windows phone would offer between 64 and 128 GB of storage, 4 GB , Intel Atom Processor, and a 5.5 inch display.The real reason for why Microsoft wants to come out with this Surface Phone is because they want to start producing their own phones, since the Nokia Lumia Phones are not actually part of Microsoft. The Surface Phone would not be made out of plastic, but would be metallic like their Surface tablets. I understand their concerns over not making their own phones. Making their own phones might be pretty smart. They might be looking to make more profits off of their smartphone sales by creating a phone that has more features than the Nokia Lumia does. My dad bought a Nokia and he said it was really cheap quality, and I think Microsoft is aware of that.
