Developers continue to show off Windows 10X running on devices that it was never meant to touch. Twitter user Gustave Monce, and expert on running unsupported software on things, recently shared several videos of Microsoft's new version of Windows running on the Lumia 950 XL.
Windows 10X won't ship to any current devices, and it especially wasn't meant for a smartphone from a dead platform, but Monce's videos are here, nonetheless. In the videos, the Lumia 950 XL handles touch, running apps, and multitasking fairly well.
When people first managed to get Windows 10X to run on the Lumia 950 XL, some key features weren't working, including cellular connectivity, cellular calling, and auto-rotation. Those features
appear to be working now
, as shown off in Monce's tweets.
It's important to note that this is an unfinished build of Windows 10X running on a device that it was never meant to run on. As a result, glitches, bugs and broken features are bound to happen. That might seem self-explanatory, but some online have complained about the performance of Windows 10X running on unsupported hardware.
