According to cnbeta (translated), ZTE Corporation chief technology officer Kan Yu Lun has said that ZTE will be launching a Windows Phone 8 system in the second quarter of 2013, but it looks to be accelerated with the tweet of this mysterious handset. ZTE, a Chinese multinational telecommunications equipment and systems company, is the world’s fourth-largest mobile phone manufacturer measured by 2011 unit sales, and the world’s fifth-largest telecoms equipment maker.
