Though there is still no official word from the company, but we have reasons to believe this news because Zuaba, a shipping company from India listed a photograph with the official document showing that the South Korean company recently shipped a Windows 8 phone, numbered SM-W750V, to India for testing and development.

Earlier, it has launched the Samsung Ativ S apart from , Ativ Q and Ativ Tab 3. The last Samsung Windows Phone 8 smartphone was the Ativ S Neo, which was released in August this year and then there was Samsung Omnia models which features the Microsoft's mobile operating system.
