Ukungena kukaMicrosoft emhlabeni kocingo kwaba okwesikhashana, isikhathi eside ngokwanele ukukuqonda lokho i-ecosystem entsha yamadivayisi eselula ibingenandawo emakethe, imakethe okwamanje eyabiwe yi-Google ne-Apple. Iphutha elikhulu bekuyiMicrosoft ngoba ibingazi ukuthi lingayikhangisa kanjani kahle, ukuze abasebenzisi bazi leyo nketho.
Ngibe nethuba lokuhlola iWindows Phone izinsuku ezimbalwa, futhi yize kuyiqiniso ukuthi ngangisebenzisa i-iOS ne-Android, kwangithatha kancane ukuyibamba, ukuhlanganiswa kwalo lonke uhlelo lokusebenza kwakukuhle. Yize ishiye ukuthuthuka Windows 10 Iselula, inkampani ibonakala iqhubeka nokusebenza nge-smartphone esongwayo, inkampani eyayifuna, noma efuna ngayo, ukuguqula umhlaba wocingo.
Ngikhuluma nge-Project Andromeda. Ushicilelo iThe Verge, lukwazi ukufinyelela kwamanye ama-imeyili lapho kukhonjiswa imininingwane ethile yale divayisi, eminye imininingwane iqinisekisa izithombe ezifakwe kule ndatshana (abekhuluma ngazo iminyaka eminingana) nalapho sibona khona into yokubamba, esingazigcina zikhululekile ephaketheni lethu. Le divayisi kukhulunywe ngayo iminyaka, ibhabhadiswa abanye njengeSurface Phone, ithuluzi iMicrosoft elifuna ngalo nikela ngendlela entsha yokuxhumana namadivayisi eselula.
Le foni engaphezulu, noma ngabe yini ekugcina ibizwa ngayo uma ifika emakethe, izohambisana nosiba bese kuthi ngaphakathi uthole amaprosesa we-ARM, angavumela sebenzisa inguqulo ye Windows 10, into esesivele siyibonile kwamanye ama-laptops, ngakho-ke akuwona umqondo osile, ngoba ngale ndlela, bekungeke kudingeke ukwamukela i-Android noma uzame futhi ukwenza Windows 10 Iselula enye into emhlabeni yocingo.
IMicrosoft izohlose ukwethula idivayisi shintsha ingxenye noma uyidale, njengoba yenzile ngeSurface, nokuthi okwamanje, kubonakala ngathi isebenza kahle impela.
