Such a device would follow in the footsteps of the HTC One M8 for Windows, which the firm recently confirmed will be upgraded to Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p>Chang apparently did not confirm or deny that a &#8216;One M9+ for Windows&#8217; might eventually be released, but according to Windows Central, he did say that the company is &#8216;working closely&#8217; with Microsoft on a Windows 10 device.<\/p>\n<p>He also didn&#8217;t specify whether it will be a high-end flagship-class phone, saying instead: &#8220;We&#8217;ll see how the new version of the Windows operating system shapes up and where it fits in the HTC lineup.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added that HTC will share more details on its new Windows 10 handset towards the end of this quarter, or in early Q3, which suggests that the device may be unveiled sometime before the end of August.<\/p>\n<p>Another major manufacturer that&#8217;s planning to launch Windows 10 phones is Lenovo.
