It seems that we should add Andromeda — Microsoft’s rumored foldable phone — to the list of rumored incoming foldable phones for 2019. According to a new book, it may be one of the new cool Surface devices coming next year.
But it wiil be more than just a phone.

As reported by BGR, the book contains details about what’s coming from Redmond in 2019, including the much awaited Project Andromeda, a foldable device that is a phone and a tablet just like the Samsung Galaxy and the Huawei foldable phones.
Rather than being a phone with a dedicated operating system — like Windows Phone — Andromeda will be an extremely compact Surface-class device that will turn from phone-size to tablet-size.
Finally, there’s a mention of another Surface product that sounds like a smart speaker, classified as a “ambient computing devices.” The book says that this device “is designed to help deal with some of the common frustrations of using a smartphone.”
The pace of change in Redmond seems to be accelerating to Warp 9. If you had told me two years ago that we will see Microsoft overcoming Apple as the most valued company, I would have never believed it.
