Windows 10: Microsoft’s Andromeda May Be a Modular Mobile Device

Future of Windows Phone 2017

I'm not certain that those photos are actual photos. There have been a few people that have artfully photoshopped what they imagine a Surface Phone would look like.

Anyhow, this is what I'm getting from all this:

Windows Mobile is dead. But so is Windows RT that was used on tablets. Now did Microsoft stop making tablets because RT didn't pan out for them? No, they started making Windows tablets that run the "desktop" version of Windows. So could they be paving the
way to a Windows Phone that also uses the same architecture as their desktop/laptop platform?

Actually that's exactly what Andromeda has been said to be. A single operating system that's modular by design. Instead of an OS that has everything in it for any hardware configuration possible on any computer therefore making it necessary to design a separate
mobile operating system for smartphones, Andromeda is said to be able to be installed with only the parts of the OS that are necessary for a particular electronic device. So why make an operating system that's modular if Microsoft is only interested in the
desktop/laptop platform? Or are they interested in other platforms such as smartphones and mini tablets?

Also, Microsoft now has a patent on a folding screen that will fit inside your pocket.

Let's take another look.

• Electronic device that fits in your pocket.
• Foldable screen that allows a larger tablet sized screen which coincidentally would be better apt for keeping a single operating system across all types of devices.
• Operating system that modular and therefore able to adapt to a much wider variety of electronic devices.

Are they paving the way to a Surface Phone or at least experimenting with the idea or what?

 

Microsoft should keep the lumia model

Windows 10 mobile is not the same as Windows 10 for computers. It's its own operating system. And Microsoft has published that it will end support for it altogether this January. And by that they mean no more updates for it.

Windows 10 Mobile won't work alongside of another operating system because it is an operating system. Say Windows Andromeda comes out in January just in time to replace Windows 10 mobile and Windows 10 for computers (Andromeda will be the same for both unlike
Windows 10), then you may have the opportunity to upgrade to Andromeda and say goodbye to Windows 10. This is like what happened to several Windows 8.1 phones that were upgraded to Windows 10 Mobile. However, I doubt it will turn out like that.

 

For some odd reason I read the title of this as "Mass Effect Andromeda May Be a Modular Mobile Device

 

We'll eventually see if it may have a "Mass Effect" or not. *Tongue *Wink
