The just released Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 could be in for a great run. A tech geek has posted a YouTube video that detailed how he transformed the latest Samsung foldable flagship into a Windows Phone. Mark Spurrel used a combination of two Android launchers and Bixby Routines to achieve his objective. The process holds some promise for the versatility of the Galaxy Z Fold 4.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 have just become available with improved components from the first-generation Z-series foldable phones. The YouTube video covered how the tech geek transformed his new foldable to look like a Windows PC on the inner display. The process showed a folding phone having the Windows Phone tiles when closed. These tiles are customizable and match what you would expect on a typical Windows Phone. In addition, Spurrel was able to create quick access to other functions like the camera.

The transformed inner display of the Galaxy Z Fold 4 has the Windows 10 desktop environment, with shortcuts and the start menu. The widgets for the clock, calendar, and other settings are located in the bottom left corner. There is also a full panel for settings and notifications. The innovator, however, pointed out that the transformation isn’t perfect, as the phone constantly switches between launchers. It is surely a great starting point however and he can significantly improve the process for greater efficiency.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 currently starts at $1,799.99. It is both an excellent tablet and a great smartphone combined in a single device. It has a lightning-fast Snapdragon chipset and an overall durable and performance-driven setup. There are a variety of trade-ins and network plans from several carriers like AT&T and Verizon, as well as retailers like Amazon and Best Buy.
