Microsoft works with Xiaomi on a Windows 10 ROM for Android

Windows-Android

Although the market share of Windows for mobile devices continues to grow little by little, in Microsoft They are far from settling for this and are still looking for new ways to conquer new users: taking into account the difficulties it has had in recent times to convince manufacturers that they bet on their operating system, it seems that they have decided to bet on a new approach and simply leave the users of others who try it for themselves, hoping, logically, that their virtues end up convincing them to make the change. How do you plan to do it?

Can we test Windows on any Android device?

The truth is that the plan seems quite simple and consists, as they have explained after the announcement of the launch of Windows 10 this summer (which was within expectations), to launch a ROM (similar to those of Cyanogen, for example) of this new version of your operating system that could be installed on a smartphone Android. The only thing that is confirmed at the moment is that the project is already in tests with a group of users of the Xiaomi Mi 4 in China, but everything points to the plans for Microsoft they go further and it is expected that in the future it will be expanded to new regions and new devices, until it is available to any user.

Windows 10 smartphones

Although there are not too many details about it yet, it seems that Microsoft has abandoned the path of dual boot (it is practically impossible to find dual-boot devices outside the Chinese tablet market anymore), and that with this Windows 10 ROM would completely replace Android on our device, giving us an experience almost identical to that of any user with a smartphone Lumia.

What do you think of this new strategy Microsoft? Would you like to have the opportunity to try Windows 10 on your smartphone Android?
