Chinese mobile phone users will soon be able to purchase Windows Phone devices coming from Nokia.

The Finnish handset vendor is set to make its first such devices official for the local market as soon as March 28th, the latest news on the matter suggest.

Nokia’s CEO Stephen Elop reportedly confirmed the move, but he did not offer info on which devices were set to make an official appearance on the Chinese market.

However, some of the latest reports on the matter suggested that both Nokia Lumia 800 and Lumia 710 would be released in the country (there will be specially crafted versions of these devices).

Rumor has it that Nokia has partnered with China Telecom and China Unicom for the launch. For those out of the loop, we should note that China Mobile also confirmed plans to release a 3G-capable Windows Phone in the near future.
