Windows 10 Mobile ROM now available for Xiaomi Mi 4
Back in March, we told you that Microsoft was testing a Windows 10 Mobile ROM for the Xiaomi Mi 4. Today, the ROM has been released by Microsoft. Even though we've seen the Mi 4 running on the platform as early as last April, Xiaomi has released new photos on its Weibo page, showing its current flagship phone powered by Microsoft's mobile operating system.
At the time that we first heard about Microsoft's plan, it appeared that Windows 10 Mobile ROMs would be made available for a number of different Android phones. As of now, it will be offered for the Xiaomi Mi 4, the Xiaomi Mi Note series, and the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 tablet. Once installed, the ROM overrides Android and turns the handset into a native Windows 10 Mobile device.
Microsoft expects to benefit from users providing feedback so that it can improve the platform, and from those signing up for Microsoft's services. It also will add to its revenue from Mi 4 users buying apps from the Windows Store after installing the ROM.
