In the podcast that followed (that he did on a beach vacation) he claimed he recieved "confirmation" on that MS is working on phone hardware. He added that he didn't know if it was the long rumored Surface phone but he is guessing it is because it is coming from that team.
I would call a 2 and 1 a 2 and 1 I guess. I call a tablet a tablet. If MS releases a 5 inch tablet that is capable of making phone calls I will call it a phone. Just like everyone else would. ������

And if it has dual detachable screens in a re-arrangeable clamshell configuration like I suspect Andromeda is (due to code folks have discovered mentioning dual gyros and a hinge value for the OS paired with this hardware)?

Would you still call it "a phone"? Yes, technically its a phone, but as with a 2 in 1, when speaking of tablets in general, a separate word is required to distinguish the difference.

(From one of MSFTs aspirational videos, and suspiciously matches the values found in the code perfectly - clamshell, dual screen, detachable)
