Samsung ATIV S And HTC Tiara Could Be Sprint’s Windows Phone Offerings

The other day Sprint launched a landing page for Windows Phone, suggesting that an announcement for the carrier’s upcoming Windows Phone devices could be around the corner. While an official announcement has yet to be made, The Verge has learned that the carrier will be offering at least two Windows Phone devices, although if their information is accurate, we’re not sure if these are devices worth getting that excited about. One of them is apparently the Samsung ATIV S, a rather unassuming Windows Phone 8 device which looks a bit like Samsung’s Galaxy Android devices, although that may not be a bad thing.

The other device is the HTC Tiara, a 4.3” Windows Phone device that has yet to make an official appearance, although recent sightings of its specs revealed its WVGA display, a 1.2GHz dual-core chipset, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage and an 8MP camera. While these phones will be more than capable of getting the job done, we have to say they aren’t as exciting as devices like the HTC 8X, the Nokia Lumia 920 or even the rumored aluminum Lumia 928. In any case both phones are scheduled for a release in May/June later this year.
