Judging from the latest results, this installation interface is not terrible. Ben successfully entered the desktop. According to him, Windows 10 ARM runs very well on the Lumia 950 XL.
In the computer properties, the Snapdragon 810 chip and 3GB of running memory except for the Lumia 950 XL were also successfully recognized. However, the delays in animation switching are still relatively intuitive.
Ben’s next goal is to allow the Lumia 950 XL to run Win32 exe programs, which is to break through Microsoft’s current lock-down only Snapdragon 835 support.
