Most tablets and computers with SIM card slots they are limited to offering the functionality to get an internet connection independently, but what about the calls? The possibility of making calls from said device is completely annulled for simple hardware reasons, however, it seems that Microsoft is thinking of including them in its computers soon Surface or in a new hardware until now unknown.
Calls could be made from Surface thanks to the new Windows 10 beta
For now it is not something neither functional nor official, but the people of WindowsBlogItalia has detected that in the latest beta of Windows 10, the Redstone 5 (19H1), the phone app that had always appeared in the operating system has been updated to show more than just call history and favorites. In the new version of the operating system, the "Telephone" application now includes a numeric keypad which is capable of automatically identifying number from our contact list, so there is more integration than we might think.
Upcoming show or simple unintentional changes?
Given that Microsoft left the smartphone business a long time ago, including the possibility of making calls from a desktop computer or a Surface would be just one more example of the manufacturer's intentions to bring its operating system closer to other platforms. In fact, it would be a function that would make a lot of sense within your “Your Phone” application, since it would bring a new mobile ability to the team, and it would not even need the use of a SIM card in the Surface itself or Windows 10 computer by depending exclusively on the mobile connection.
