Mobile phone users in China will soon be able to purchase in their country handsets that run under Microsoft’s upcoming Windows Phone Tango OS.

The platform has been long rumored to arrive on devices during the first half of the year, and it appears that it might not be too long before it does so.

In fact, rumor has it that March is set to bring Tango to smartphones, and that Chinese users will also get a taste of it at that time.

Nokia, HTC, LG and ZTE are among the mobile phone users expected to bring to shelves devices that run under the Windows Tango platform, though no official confirmation on this has emerged so far.

For those out of the loop, we should note that Tango would bring along support for low-end Windows Phone hardware, in addition to existing configurations.
