Pictures of Microsoft handsets Turtle and Pure leaked!

It was just a couple of days that rumors of Microsoft planning to launch some mobile handsets was doing rounds and now we learn that pictures of its upcoming handsets named Turtle and Pure have got leaked, courtesy Gizmodo.

“These phones are going to be made by Sharp, who’ll get to share branding with Microsoft. Sharp produced the Sidekick hardware for Danger, who was bought by Microsoft two years ago. Pink will be primarily aimed at the same market as the Sidekick (teenagers), and the branding and identity for it is highly developed, pointing toward a later stage in the development cycle,” writes Gizmodo.

The Turtle is being referred to as a younger version of Palm Pre which will attract teenagers because of its look. It has a camera but apparently no flash. This might keep the handset’s cost a bit lower.

For Microsoft Pure, it can be very well said that it will give tough competition to handsets such as HTC Pro. The slider phone has middle-end features and bubble-plastic keys.
