    AnonD-442781, 05 Nov 2016You can't blame the developers, since it is just you and me... moreI actually can. Cause windows phone was on rising and they still didn't want to invest in it. If only this people invested a bit of time in it, now we would have had 3 mobile system with good market share. But well, it is how it is.

      Carol, 05 Nov 2016first of all. you mean Microsoft;). Second, windows mobile ... moreYou can't blame the developers, since it is just you and me who use Windows mobile, they don't have an incentive to make apps for us. Its okay though, even though a lot of the apps are buggy and I can't even read my email without it messing around, it still works... Sort of. Plus they added an extra feature where I can put it on my desk and use it as a coaster, totally awesome and definitely my favourite feature.

          AnonD-442781, 05 Nov 2016Intel hasn't made a high end mobile chip before.I think Intel Atom Processor were not on par with SD or other ARM processors. Acer tried to push it but thats about it. Now desktop class with X86 architecture (micro) is not possible to fit within mobile phone without compromising size, battery etc...But Microsoft sort of indicated its direction with Continuum where desktop experience simulated using its docking....It would be interesting of course.

              The design of the phone (concept) is similar to Sony Xperia Sola, See yourself . . . !!

                Phone looks nice but it's useless if people refuse to buy because the windows store doesn't have proper apps. Put some more money in Windows store first.

                    "Laptop-class Intel processor", but for what?? - It only has sense, if Win32 API, and Desktop version of Windows will be available on phone, but this is useless on phone.
                    If it is a replacement fort the current continuum mode, it is not a bad idea, but it will be a layer demand. - And of course this will be the final nail to WP's coffin.

                        Yeah any of those under-powered intel processors. Unless there is something new, we already know that these procs heat fast and eat the battery like a champ. Those were not good in tablets, dunno how much better they'll fare in phones.

                          laptop cpu means it would have intel atom or pentium or core m which does not need active cooling

                              Either in the first tweet there are 3 different phones or the Photoshop is weak in that one.
                              In the second tweet there is also a 4th device with rounded corners and some REALLY BAD photoshopping where the left and right bezels have different sizes.
