Microsoft and HP have been working together for many years. Former PDA users will surely remember the different terminals that the HP company launched with Windows Mobile, a software that allowed us, saving distances, to perform the same office functions, and that focused mainly on managing email, at just like the BlackBerry. Shortly after, the iPhone hit the market and we all know what happened. A few weeks ago HP launched the X3 Elite, a terminal focused on the business world, with very good features and that it is logically compatible with Continumm, but at a price that is too high for it to become an option for many companies and less for individuals.
While we wait for the arrival of the Surface Phone, if it finally occurs at some point, the latest rumors suggest that both Microsoft and HP are working on a low-medium terminal, a terminal that they would launch before the end of spring and that would try to attract attention. of users who have previously used the platform, but due to the delays caused by the launch of Windows 10 Mobile they threw in the towel and moved on to another ecosystem.
At the moment we do not have information about its possible specifications, but if Microsoft wants to raise its head with its mobile version of Windows 10 it must put the batteries and launch a good, nice and cheap terminal. A week ago we informed you of the price reduction that the Acer Jade Primo had experienced, a terminal with very good features that was in the store for 249 euros, which meant that the Microsoft store quickly ran out of stock, already Today it seems that they still do not have it. If the alliance between both companies allows launching a similar terminal at such a competitive price could be the tipping point Microsoft is looking for since he decided to put his head directly into the world of telephony.
