Not sure why windows phone did not put all their developers into making the play store work in windows OS. not sure how much power it would require to run a virtual android OS but I would think they could figure it out. And if not, skin android to look like windows phone. I have a microsoft...

I have been using Nova launcher since like the 2nd month of owning my Note3. Just saw this arrow launcher and it is quite good. I have now switched to arrow and see nothing that nova was able to do that Arrow does not do better. I do not get the feeling of being on a WP too much though. The...

This is what windows needs to do. Well a combination. Create the new windows OS and sign a deal with android to allow access to the play store. Then create a VM engine to allow play store games and apps to be used. This must be possible as I have run VM android on my PC. And that is...

720p really? Cool concept but wonder what the screen will look like after it is stored for a month or 2.

Laptops do not run the same processors as desktops. They may be "i" Intel chips but they are not the same. Not even close. Usually the top end laptop cpu is on par with a bottom tier desktop processor.

Pretty sure atom is leagues ahead of arm in processing but have not been watching small cpus lately. Windows 10 for phones would not be full blown win10. Would be a scaled back version.

I hope that was a typo. 1200x800 resolution is not enough. If you can't see the jaggies you are blind. 1440p is probably enough for phones though. At least until battery tech changes. Also just using metal does not make a phone good. But metal does feel better than any plastic when done right...

Device needs to ha e a chin to hold. Screen to the edge would cause problems. Note 3 uses capacitive buttons which are okay bit I still accidentally hit them since they do not require pressure. I would like the chin to basically be a rocker button for the back and other buttons. Would make...

I think the only things I have not seen hype about by enthusiasts are cooking utensils. Though I am not a cooking enthusiast so who knows. With tech and transportation there is ALWAYS going to be hype about the "next" generation.

Re: Is surface phone coming this year Agreed. Loved my 7.8 device but hated that I was basically stuck mostly with a few apps a knock offs of all the popular ones. Android emulators can run in windows OS. So sandbox an emulator and allow play store access. Then Microsoft just focuses on keeping...

Phone apps will not run on pc though. You can get the same app on pc if available. If phone is x86, all apps and programs can theoretically run on any win 10 device and should be able to do so fluidly with no porting necessary.

x86 would open the flood gates for developers I think. Why design for just a phone when you can have the entire captive user base of desktop PC. If the store listed normal windows programs that is. Does it?

Type cover would be impossible to type on connected to the phone. Lay a piece of paper down the same size as your phone and try to put an entire qwerty keyboard on it and then be able to type on it in any way besides maybe 2 finger touch. Better option would be to have a laser keyboard option...

http://m.ebay.com/itm/321813107904 Not sure how I got to that one above. Just searched ebay for compact portable computer keyboard. There were a few different styles. Do some research before purchase. I have no idea what a good brand name is for these or how well they are supposed to work. Was...

And then July, and then not till Sept 2017
