    Chime in: Will Microsoft announce a foldable 'Surface phone' at MWC 2018?

    I am almost sure we will not see, this year, a device in any phone factor. Yes, Windows 10(laptops/tablets) on ARM with mobile capability, is more realistic for this year. This is why I am putting my Lumia 950 aside, in favor of a S8, for the time being. I hope by 2020 we can expect a device...

    Surface Laptop or the 2017 Surface Pro

    The surface pro. I like my device ti be versatile and easy to handle. Surface Laptop is great, I like the design, but I don't understand the touch screen, when the screen doesn't open at lease 180 degrees.

    If the Surface phone is really not coming out until late 2017 or early 2018...

    One correction though. MS missed the Smartphone boat. The mobile market is another thing. And with Surface family, they are doing a great job to crate new categories and new markets.

    i have lumia 620.youtube chrome and other apps does not show in store, and not install apk

    You are coming from Android? Google refused to do apps for windows phones so you will not have any official apps that use Google services. Search YouTube in store, there are some really good third party aps. For Chrome.... just use Internet Explorer it is really good and reliable on windows...

    Is there actually a department where MS makes more money than its direct competitor?

    Now think About Apple, Google and others and make a list in your mind like you did for MS, you will be amassed. Every Company has one or two strong products (winners), and the rest is average at most. MS doesn't need to win at everything they do, they need a few winners, and they have Windows...

    Could Cortana learn names of some of my friends?

    Cortana is will learn your friends names if you use it more. But you can do something to speed up the learning process. If you try to edit (edit name) a contact you will see at the bottom a field with Phoneticfirst/last name. Cortana will look though this fields as well. For example I taught...
