After a year of building just Android phones, it appears that LG is developing at least one new Windows Phone device.
The LG VW820 has been rumored since December when its existence was inadvertently revealed by an ad network, and we seem to have better proof now.
LG's own Korean website has two listing for the VW820 now, confirmed to be running a Microsoft operating system. Additionally, the phone has been certified by the Bluetooth SIG now, as well.
There are no other details known about the device except for the basic info from the ad network which claims it will be a low-end 4.7-inch 480x854 resolution phone. It also has been suggested the device will run Windows Phone 8.1 and not 10, due to the listings stating "Windows Phone" and not just "Windows," which Microsoft has done for all 10-based devices.
