If there is one feature that Windows Phone is known for, it would be its unique user interface which relies on tiles to provide users with information at a glance. It is pretty clever, unique, and actually pretty neat in terms of layout.
In fact Nokia’s X series of Android handsets appear to be running a forked version of Android that sports a Metro-ish UI, but interestingly enough it seems that Nokia does not want Android developers to copy that layout, which we guess is to help reduce confusion between Android and Windows Phone for the less tech savvy out there.

Does a smartphone that dual boots Windows Phone and Android sound appealing to you? In a way it does seem like that you would get the best of both worlds, but is this really something that people need?

That being said, it seems that Lenovo might be interested in attempting to break into the Windows Phone market with a smartphone of their own, according to reports from WP7Forum.ru. The reports are claiming that Lenovo will be launching their first Windows Phone handset around April which is following the announcement of Windows Phone 8.1. (more…)

Do take this bit of news with a pinch of salt, as nothing official has been released just yet concerning the Nokia Lumia 630. Sure, we have seen the Nokia Lumia 630 product sheet leaked yesterday which dropped a hint concerning a 4.5” display, but here are more details that touches on the rest of the hardware specifications. Also known as the Nokia “Moneypenny”, the Nokia Lumia 630’s most recent round of leaked information hails from an anonymous (this is expected) user on the Chinese Baidu forum. The forum post also pointed to a slew of new images of the Nokia Lumia 630, as well as comparing it to the existing Nokia Lumia 620 model that is in the market.

Which comes first – the chicken or the egg? This is the very same situation that many software developers and hardware manufacturers ponder over. Software developers say that they would like to see a platform increase its market share before they are able to throw their lot into it, while hardware manufacturers claim that unless software developers back their hardware right from the get go without looking at the user base figures, it would be difficult for people to adopt the hardware in the first place. Well, Acer is somewhat placed in such a position, as their VP of Smartphones, Allen Burnes, mentioned that the company would like to see Windows Phone market share grow before they take the plunge into the Windows Phone platform.
