A computer student managed to run Windows 11 on a Lumia 950 XL mobile phone.
The rumor is slowly being confirmed that Windows 11 is running everywhere. A computer student managed to run Windows 11 on a Windows Phone and specifically on the Lumia 950 XL model.
Student Gustave Monce created a short video showing Windows 11 running on a Microsoft mobile phone, one of the first devices to ship with Windows 10 Mobile. It was also one of the last Microsoft phones to run Windows before the company ended support for its mobile operating system.
Windows 11 seems to adapt surprisingly well to the 5,7-inch screen, but if it suffers somewhere it is at the speed of animation. Of course, the issue is not what problems a beta operating system can cause on a mobile phone, which in the end is not intended for that. The point is, Windows 11 can run almost anywhere, just like Windows 10, which also managed to run on a mobile phone.
Monce and his team have created a special website showcasing their work, which includes tools, guides, and documentation on transferring Windows 10 and Windows 11 to these old Windows Phones.
