Microsoft Surface Phone 8 concept will make your handset jealous

Microsoft might have just stated that it has no plans for its own phone, but that hasn't stopped designer Jonas Daehnert from whipping up a Microsoft Surface Phone 8 concept design that would make even your sleek HTC One X or Nokia Lumia 800 hang its head in shame.

Inspired by the Microsoft Surface Tablets revealed last week, the Microsoft Surface Phone 8 concept is a Windows 8 handset mockup which borrows heavily from its tablet father in the looks department, which is no bad thing, we think you'll agree.

From its 22-degree angled edges and machine-drilled speaker grill to its magnesium alloy body, the Microsoft Surface Phone 8 handset is definitely a slice of sleek tech that we wouldn't be ashamed to slide out of our pockets. Please Microsoft, make this happen...
