The Redmond-based company revealed that it is testing Windows 10 with power users of Xiaomis flagship Mi 4 Android smartphone

From TechCrunch:

hats to say that the software doesnt offer a dual boot option, which Microsoft has pushed in the past in India. This is a ROM, based on Windows, that operates much like software from Cyanogen a company Microsoft was incorrectly linked with an investment in and other custom ROMs developed by the likes of Tencent and Baidu in China.

The ROM is thus designed to go beyond Microsofts Android apps and offer a native-like Windows experience on Android phones.

Thats a pretty powerful concept, and it is no surprise to see Microsoft testing it in China, where consumers are more inclined to install ROMs. Theres a greater spirit of customization in China, particularly for Android users since third-party app stores are the norm as Google Play is severely restricted there.
