Windows Phone 8 Apollo’s Creed

While the latest versions of the Microsoft phones have been somewhat successful, there is still a lot ground to gain in order to satisfy the hungers from the company and the fans. The Windows 7 Phone currently runs on the Mango 7.5 version, and soon Tango for the upcoming 7.6 version. Windows Phone 7 won a few awards with its release. But, according to many critics, it still has not gained enough respect to be listed in the same category as Android or iOS or even on the same spec sheet. Microsoft is hoping to change that perception.
Microsoft Windows Phone 8 Apollo is expected to be released alongside the Windows 8 operating system for the PC. This is not a random coincidence. The two systems are designed to be used in conjunction with each other. Microsoft’s goal is to easily allow you to connect your phone (Windows Phone 8), to your computer (Windows 8), and also to your TV (Xbox and vNext). This will be possible by the integration of tap-to-share functionality.

The forthcoming Windows Phone 8 release is set to include several updates over the previous versions of Windows phones. These new updates are similar to those included in Windows 8. This will allow Microsoft to produce the same user-experience between systems, and also utilize similar code and components. It is all part of Microsoft’s recently announced “Windows Reimagined” campaign.
