We recently reported about Windows 10 for ARM-based system was flashed on the Xiaomi Mi 6 smartphone. Now, just a day after that, the same operating system has now been successfully flashed on Samsung Galaxy S8.
With the success of getting it installed on the Snapdragon 835-powered smartphone, one of the main developers of the project, Evisio0n seems to have achieved an important milestone which will make way for the project to expand to other flagships.

However, do note that this Galaxy S8 tweak is still in early stage of development and some of the key features are not yet working, including touch, cameras, and some sensors. While it is running Windows 10 operating system, it’s practically not usable for smartphones at this point in time but some developers are exploring dual-boot options.
In one of the early demos related to this, Qualcomm had showcased the Windows 10 operating system running on a device powered by Snapdragon 820 SoC. The processor was packed in a Windows 10 notebook, which is impressive considering it was powered by a mobile chipset. This laptop could run games like World of Tanks, play 4K videos, run MS Office 2019 and all the essential functions.
