We did not even bother with Win 10 mobile.

We developed corporate apps to support the Enterprise software I managed. Very sad.īy the time Win 10 mobile was released the game was over. At the time MS was selling the model I bought for over $700 at the MS Stores. I still have my RT table, bought for $99 at Tech ED 2013. Only a company driven by some with the ego of Balmer could even think it might be successful. The connections between all four were not great - the unification usage strategy was always very rough. Instead they had four separate OS, one for phones, one for tablets, one for desktops and one for servers. Microsoft should have built a mobile OS for Phones and tablets.

Windows Mobile 8 had great potential, but was rushed. Even a little bit of planning and Win7 devices would not have been a dead end. Then they eventually moved to Win 7 OS and devices, but never planned on these devices being upgraded to Win8. Microsoft actually had a decent market share with Win Mobile 6.5, but they let it rot on the vine and lost just about everyone.
So it all depends how Microsoft will execute it in the end. Hard to say if it will be a success or not, since Microsoft often have very good ideas, they just often just plague with bad execution. Whatever that reality it may be if Andromeda OS went though, it will be different reality for Microsoft ecosystem of today. It will be the same group who hated Live Tiles for example. At least it seems number of fans of Windows 11 but not all, likes simplistic OS than being feature rich. But Microsoft at times bad at giving options either.įans of Windows 11 group may don't like this more in a sense this is "busy". Assuming Microsoft won't give an option to switch which default home user wishes to see. The canvas home screen is indeed different, and some may don't like that Live Tiles isn't a default home screen experience anymore. I guess W10M fans may not hate as much since it is pretty much closer to that but with something way more. Special thanks to on Twitter for helping me get this build up and running.

The Surface Duo is now an Android device, and Microsoft is all-in on embracing Android as a first party experience on that device. It's not in development, and is never going to ship. Once again, the Andromeda OS project is canceled. Read: 5 reasons why Microsoft canceling Andromeda was the right choice
Just take the pen and write, no need to think about it. It reduces the cognitive load required to take notes on a digital device. Being able to treat the lockscreen as a whiteboard/inking canvas without having to enter a special mode or app first is a genius idea. If there's anything I want Microsoft to copy from Andromeda OS and port over to Android on the Surface Duo, it's the lockscreen inking feature. Yet, there are small UI and UX things here on Andromeda OS that did make the jump to Android, including the date and time layout on the lockscreen, the multitasking UI, and the animations and interaction model involved with running apps side by side in dual-screen mode. The whole inking and journal thing is certainly not a focus point on Surface Duo with Android, whereas it was the point on Andromeda. It's very interesting to see how similar, yet different the user experience is on Surface Duo with Android compared to what Microsoft was building with Windows.
