Microsoft corporation is expanding its OS by offering free Windows 10 upgrade to biggest Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi which is currently running Android operating system
Microsoft also said in their post that "As part of the Windows Insider Program, Microsoft will partner with Xiaomi to offer Windows 10 free downloads to a select group of Xiaomi Mi 4 users. Xiaomi Mi 4 users will get the ability to flash their phones with the new Windows 10 OS and provide feedback to Xiaomi and Microsoft on their experience. This partnership will allow Xiaomi and Microsoft to get direct user feedback and continue to improve the experience for China. Microsoft is thrilled to see Xiaomi embracing Windows 10 and offering this great value to their customers. We're excited to see the feedback we receive from this audience."
Few Xiaomi Mi4 users will get chance to try the latest Windows 10 operating system on their device. You can see how the OS look like.
The users will need to download and install the update package available on the Xiaomi's forums in the next few weeks. But users have to lose out Android on their smartphones as the ROM doesn't support dual boot option.
This new strategy may help Microsoft to reach out new users without buying a new Window device.
