Microsoft wants to "put Windows in your pocket" and they plan to do that by pushing its new Lumia phones that are capable of driving Windows 10 desktop.
Microsoft's new Lumia 950 and 950XL handsets can be indirectly hooked up to a monitor, mouse and keyboard and used to run a Windows desktop OS.
At a launch event last 6 October, Microsoft demonstrated how the phones' Windows 10 OS can change the look and feel of certain apps, as well as its own appearance, to suit the phone or the desktop. In the demo, the phones were shown coping well with everyday desktop tasks, such as multitasking and copying files from a USB stick.
Enterprises will likely be the target for these phone-powered desktops, says Gartner research director Annette Zimmermann, in particular sales teams who spend a lot of time outside the office and employees who hotdesk.
