Coship wants Windows 10 and Android on the same phone, but does a dual smartphone make sense at this point?

When Windows Phone hit the market all of us or well, many users saw it as a more than interesting option to the duopoly that at that time was Android and iOSAt that time I used both systems and the Windows proposal a priori gave a very good feeling due to the freshness it provided. Something totally different.

All of this is history and we already know the outcome. The situation of Windows 10 Mobile is not good, because it is soft and for many the platform is more dead than alive compared to iOS and especially Android, the two systems that, far from disappearing, are stronger than ever.And despite this situation there are manufacturers that continue to fight for the platform (curious because not even Microsoft itself does it) and as in this case, using the weapons at their disposal scope.

"

How they count on MSPowerUser, the manufacturer is Coship, and far from Nadella&39;s opinion on the future of smartphones, they dare with a proposal on Windows 10 and eye , which does not have the tagline mobile, but is seasoned with a rather striking green touch. And it is that the company is immersed in the launch of a terminal with dual boot. Information that appears on their Facebook page."

A mobile that would use the two operating systems such as Windows 10 and Android (we don't know if Marshmallow or Nougat). A terminal that could be one of the first to make use of the compatibility between x86 applications and processors and that would also have support for Android.

And this is something that is strange, because to do this it would have to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor (which for now allows this option), something that seems complicated both by the demand it has and by the price that the resulting product would have (it would be a top of the range).

A piece of news that would be positive if it came to fruition, although it is not convenient to launch the bells on the fly because we have in mind the Coship Moly x1, the failure of the same company when they tried to launch a terminal under Windows 10 Mobile using crowdfunding on IndieGoGo.

On the opposite side of the scale, the fact that Coship has experience in this type of proposal since they already presented a dual terminal on Linux and Android, the Coship 960.

But does a dual system make sense at this point?

A phone that allows you to choose between different operating systems. We may think that there is no point in launching phones with dual boot when there are only two major systems that are also like water and oil and one of them is completely closed. Does Going Third How Windows 10 Makes Sense?

They may approach it because of the huge number of users that Windows applications have, but we find ourselves with the difficulty that bringing them to a phone properly can be móvil A fact that can in the long run have an impact on a worse user experience and therefore their disenchantment with the platform.

Also, having Android in the same bed? Very well they have to do things so that Android does not benefit along the way from an experience with Windows 10 that to avoid it would have to be round.We will have to be attentive to confirm if the rumor comes true or everything remains in borage water.
