Qualcomm Technology Company, vice president of global product marketing DonMcGuire said, according to Microsoft and Qualcomm two companies respectively for the survey of consumers do show that most consumers of mobile computing devices have the greatest expectations that always keep online function, and longer battery life. Especially after the Millennium generation, Z generation young users, online anytime, anywhere, almost as much as breathing the air as a matter of course. But until now, most of the notebook computer to the Internet online, can only rely on Wi-Fi or other online network technology, it is difficult to do it like a mobile phone, a mobile phone as long as the wake up from sleep mode, you can connect to the network immediately whenever and wherever possible. In view of this, Qualcomm and Microsoft decided to cooperate with the Windows10 operating system is transplanted to the Snapdragon chip platform, to provide consumers with a complete PC experience, and make notebook computer, mobile phone with one device, keep in line network state whenever and wherever possible. Since 2016, the first time the two sides released its preliminary results of cooperation, after six months of development and fine-tuning, Qualcomm and Microsoft products that are already mature, so choose formally announced at the 2017 Taipei International Exhibition of computer, computer equipped with Windows10 device Snapdragon has been living master, Lenovo and HP three PC brand by industry, is expected to soon before the end of 2017, the three operators will launch related end products. In fact, as early as in the years before Microsoft has launched the WindowsRT operating system for the ARM processor architecture, but due to the processor's instruction set is not compatible, so WindowsRT less support many of the functions of the standard version of the Windows operating system, many applications also have compatibility problems. Therefore, Microsoft and Qualcomm jointly develop executable on Snapdragon Windows10, then remember the lesson. According to the joint display of both sides, the execution on the Snapdragon835 platform Windows10 can support all Office operating software, even the third party applications developed in Windows, as long as the 32 bit version, can fully support. Most Windows applications are currently 32 bit versions, or at least 32 bit or 64 bit versions, with only a few exceptions supporting only 64 bit versions. In the future, Microsoft will continue to work on software compatibility in order for Snapdragon to implement 64 bit applications. Compared with the traditional combo device, laptop computer based on x86 processor, mobile computing device Snapdragon835 chip group can maintain online whenever and wherever possible based on intelligent mobile phone with the same, and because the chip built-in modem can support GigabitLTE, so the network conditions permit conditions, the connection speed even than the solid family net faster. Snapdragon equipped with LTE modem, the maximum bandwidth of up to 1Gbit/s, stable bandwidth can be maintained at 100 ~ 150Mbit/s. In addition to the ability to stay on line at any time, the mobile computing device using the Snapdragon platform is superior to the x86 processor in terms of power consumption and board area. Especially in the area of the circuit board, only about 5 to 6 of the X86 platform, which means that the terminal device manufacturers can easily install a higher capacity battery in the product, further enhance the system's battery life. PeteBernard, director of Microsoft's ecosystem ecosystem, added that in the course of cooperation between the two sides, the import of eSIM is also an important development worth mentioning. Through eSIM, consumers can easily mobile computing devices and their mobile phone numbers with the Internet using mobile phone online tariff plan. If you want to replace the new telecommunication service providers, telecom service providers can also support eSIM through the remote programming ability to quickly adjust the data in the SIM card, so consumers do not have to put the device with a physical store in SIM card or adjust, it is very convenient to use.
