Windows Phone 10 preview

[Bull1012]

Of course there's no announced support on Win 10 Mobile for Win32, but hopefully it'll come one day...

This seems likely since they are now allowing win32 to be in the Windows 10 universal store

Probably the phones with the hardware capable of running Continuum would be able to do this??

I might have it wrong, but I understand that Win Store Win32 apps will run in a VM transparently. So the CPU needs to support VMs. I expect the new flagship Win phones to be Intel-based, not ARM. Maybe a future Intel CPU for mobile will support virtual machines...??

I Installed Windows Phone 10 preview on my Lumia 535 today, not bad at all.

My son uses it as his daily driver on his 730. It's really smoothing out with the latest builds.

Installed it on my 520 a few days back. Quite nice

Went back to 8.1 after a week or so. Notifications such as Viber and Skype did not come through. Whatsapp notifications did work, but sometimes the volume of the notifications would be on mute. Gps signal was also not very good on Win10. When you drag the taskbar thing down from the top it would sometimes not come down, a second time would bring it down, in a stuttery fasion. I loved the win10 experience on my phone, but yeah as it is my only phone I use I wanted things to work flawlessly.
