    If Microsoft can resurrect the Lumia lineup with modern hardware, especially the latest chipset, I'd be way more than happy to leave my Windows laptop behind. Continuum really shows a huge promise as a real pocket PC.

      @maya I'm with you. I used to be an Android user before switching to Windows Phone since July 2016 and I'm still using my Lumia 950 as my daily driver to this day. Now that we have Windows on ARM, we really should have a brand new Lumia with latest SOC.

      Samsung has pushed dex for more than half a decade. Yet most user still consider it's more like a gimmick rather than function. The prerequisites are far from realistic, if I can place a display and a dock and a kb/mouse in some remote location, why bother even comnect my phone to it, a laptop can run native windows apps already.

      @@vertujoe2886 That's the problem with Android. It's still not a true desktop replacement, especially Windows. Windows on ARM may not have a sizeable catalogue of native software compared to Windows on x86, but you can still run desktop softwares in the first place. In Google, only ChromeOS can do that and it too has Play Store support. It does beg the question: Why don't Google converge both Android and ChromeOS together?

    I think the lack of RAM is the main issue alongside the overheating. I have the same OS on my 950XL and it overheats a lot, so I ended up adding a CPU cooler touching the backside of the phone (without the cover). I think I tried some games, but the directx doesn't work too well because the gpu drivers were tailored for the mobile version and they have some artifacts on the standard windows.

    • @JanusCycle

    • @DoubleMonoLR
      @DoubleMonoLR Год назад +1

      I think running on battery(especially with a high load, and when it's more discharged) will also contribute to overheating, as the battery itself will create heat when discharging. Depending on how the charging circuit works, it might not be a big difference with the charger/power supply connected though. It'd be ideal to run it without a battery(external power supply only), but phones rarely seem to allow that without modification.

    Hello Janus, I must say I was skeptical when I saw the thumbnail, though after watching your video I immediately subscribed and turned all the notifications on, I even went to follow on istagram so I can see your projects on the go. At the start of the video at 11 seconds I was thinking "Continuum, I really miss that on my Windows 10 phone", but at 23 seconds I was surprised that you actually have Windows 11 on your phone! I think many people have always dreamed of having mobile windows on their phones and connecting it to a monitor. The Windows 7 F-07C was the first Windows device that caught my attention back in October of 2009, sadly it was only available in Japan. In 2014 I bought an old Motorola Lapdock & phone, it really did the job sans Windows. The Asus Padfone integrates itself into a tablet which is really cool. Most Samsung phones now have DeX so you can connect to a Smart Monitor or any larger monitor. Coninuum was introduced to Windows 10 phones, but I believe only the Lumia 950 and 950 XL had it included in an additional purchase package. I had to buy separately which I still have but I accidentally dropped my Alcatel Idol 4S. Anyhow, thank you so much for making this video. I will definitely check out your other projects you have worked on.

    The future for old mobiles should be as programmable hubs. They could be made to work the way the Pi or Arduino does. With the IDE programming environment built in and with libraries developed to support the sensors typical of most phones, along with anything else you might plug into its USB ports.. Their usefulness would go beyond the scope of the mobile phone, to work on or off the network.

    Cool project. I suggest you to get the original dock. Those can be had for peanuts, and the kit is worth it for the power adapter alone. You will see how USB-C adapters were supposed to be when invented. Not the current we leave buying an adapter to the client, which ends up getting some cheap ass piece of crap at the super market.
    Also would really recommend to give it a go as a phone. The 950XL with Windows 10 is my daily driver. Camera is top notch, and still a breeze to use compared to fancy shit Apple invents, and pictures are better than on anything up to the 13 pro max (no comparison to the 14 Pro available yet). It really forces you to bring back phone use to sane amounts. Telegram is still updated and my prefered messenger anyway. It also hosts a very active user group delivering new apps and tools, even for Windows Phone 8.1

      Yes is does get warm and the battery life is not that great. The system is laggy but quite usable. Microsoft's Edge browser runs really well because it is native ARM. Also Microsoft have a native ARM version of Office that would probably run quite well.
      Since I enjoy pushing the limits, I am using a developer preview version of Windows on here to test the 64bit emulation support. Running regular desktop software that is not ARM based can be flaky. I did a video yesterday testing out more of this computer including a browser comparison.
      As a general use computer I'm not sure I can recommend this setup. Though as a browser and office computer using ARM software it is coming close.
      Things I would like to see to make this better are a lite version of Windows 10/11 and improved power management. That would help it run faster with less heat and longer battery life.
