Alcatel's Windows Phone Arrives At China As TCL Horizon S606

(GSM Insider) - Dont misunderstand. It is not a Windows Phone 8 device. At the moment only Huawei, Samsung, HTC and Nokia are the manufacturers of Windows Phone 8. So the Alcatel brand Windows Phone is only running on the version below Windows Phone 8 which is the Windows Phone 7.8 

TCL Horizon S606

The Alcatel's Windows Phone will arrive at China as the brand of TCL instead of Alcatel itself. One of the main reasons is because TCL is the manufacturer of the smartphone. Therefore, it is going to call as TCL Horizon S606. 

TCL Horizon S606 set to come with a 1GHz single core processor, 4 inches WVGA display, 512MB of RAM memory and 4GB of ROM storage. The rear camera is a 5 mega-pixel shooter while the front camera is VGA. The operating system of TCL Horizon S606 is Windows Phone 7.8. Since it is single core, it is better to run on Windows Phone 7.8 instead of Windows Phone 8. From the overall specs, it is set to arrive by end of this year. 

We will update for you more on this TCL Horizon S606. Stay tune.  [Dopsy]
