Microsoft has abandoned Windows 10X before its release in favor of Windows 10 Sun Valley
Table of contents:
At the beginning of 2021 we saw a very advanced, almost final version of Windows 10X leak. Google's new operating system advanced steadily and they even managed to install it, something that now seems to change when it is known that in this year 2021 we will not see Windows 10X arrive
After all these movements, it has been known that Windows 10X is not for sale in 2021 and even some media refer to the fact that Microsoft could have put aside the development of Windows 10X. In this way, Microsoft's operating system for dual-screen devices would fall into oblivion
Windows 10 Sun Valley will take its place
This is what reports from Petri and Windows Central hint at Microsoft may shelve the release of Windows 10X this yearA stalled launch, dual-screen device not reaching the market, a combination that can even lead to final suspension.
Windows 10X should have arrived this spring and was aimed primarily at dual-screen devices thanks to the use of new components that allowed the system to adapt to folding devices and new formats. However, reports suggest that Microsoft is refocusing its strategy on a new version of Windows, with an adapted interface. This is a version of Windows 10 with changing capabilities depending on the device.
In this way, the great update of Windows 10 for the end of the year, the one we know as Sun Valley, would focus the efforts of the brandAnd it is that Windows 10 Sun Valley supposes an important change in which apparently it would pick up some of the elements that we had seen in Windows 10X.
"And the news about Windows 10X has been scarce since the end of last year. With these facts from WindowsCentral they point out that Microsoft would have stopped development to focus on Sun Valley>"
Windows 10X should be the companion of the Surface Neo, although it was later announced that it would reach other folding tablets from more manufacturers. However, the absence of releases may have contributed to this change in position with a Windows 10X that was exclusive for dual-screen models, did not plan to run on existing computers and may now have given way in favor of Windows Sun. Valley much more adaptable.
