With Windows Phone 7.5 Mango now out on the market, Microsoft is already hard at work on the development of their next flavor of the mobile OS, and it seems that there should be a series of appealing features packed inside it.

Among them, we can count the inclusion of support for dual-core application processors, complemented by the availability of Windows Phones with HD screens.

The Windows Phone 8 OS flavor, which is reportedly codenamed Apollo, will also bring along support for more connectivity options, such as LTE, though it seems that this capability will actually debut before its release.

The next Windows Phone update, supposedly called Tango, it expected to include support for the said 4G services, and might also be loaded on devices that sport HVGA (480 x 320 pixel screens).

Windows Phone has been on the market for only one year, but it should benefit from great improvements in the not too distant future, it seems.

I am using Windows Phone 7.5 mango with LG Optimus Quantum for last couple of weeks and I love it. The os7.5 is far more superior that the os7. With their next version os8, Microsoft should include few of the missing features and they won't have any trouble catching up to the other two leading mobile os. Since seeing my wp7.5, my wife has also bought the same phone with another carrier.
