Microsoft’s foldable Windows 10 phone new evidence found
« on: February 18, 2018, 04:44:23 PM »
A new evidence pointing towards Microsoft’s long rumored foldable Andromeda, popularly referred to as Surface Phone has been discovered. Until quite recently, the release of mythical Surface Phone was uncertain, but the software giant appears to be speeding up the development of both Andromeda hardware and software. The existence of Andromeda mobile device was recently confirmed by a developer and Windows Internals Expert, Alex Ionescu, in the latest Windows 10 SDK build.

Another leakster has now also managed to find a evidence to the Andromeda. In a tweet, Diamond Monkey claims that there is a new SKU in Windows 10 .17604.1000.180209-1422.rs_prerelease product.ini, named “Andromeda=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX”.

This new SKU points to the existence of the Andromeda project concerning the device, no other information associated with the foldable mobile phone has been discovered in any latest preview build.

According to new reports, Andromeda will run Win32 Centennial apps, as the Windows Core OS will be able to emulate them on ARM chipset which will power the device. Microsoft’s Andromeda is reportedly a Pocket PC that would run Win32 apps and extend to a large monitor with a dock, mouse and keyboard to deliver a true desktop experience.

It is highly likely that Microsoft’s foldable phone will have a dual-screen display with a hinge, it is it is expected to run on Windows Core OS, and be powered by ARM processors. Microsoft’s foldable Surface Andromeda is the company’s latest attempt to invent new product categories, like how it did with the 2-in-1 Surface laptops device and the Surface Studio all-in-one PC.
