Microsoft to launch Windows 10X on single-screen devices first

India Today  

At its Surface event last year, Microsoft said its next-generation of products, including two foldables - Surface Neo and Surface Duo, will exclusively run Windows 10X, a version of Windows 10 optimised for portable dual-screen devices. Microsoft is now opening Windows 10X for single-screen devices, which means PCs and laptops could soon be powered by the yet to be released operating system. In a blog post, Microsoft's chief product officer, Panos Panay confirmed Windows 10X will arrive on single-screen devices first. However, since Microsoft is now shifting its focus to more popular single-screen devices, the development of Windows 10X could be fast-tracked.
