Intel's plan to launch a folding laptop is troubled, but the culprit is Windows 10 X

This is a scenario that has happened too much in history.

This is a scenario that has happened too much in history, delays in Microsoft's software development that put counterpart hardware manufacturers at risk of failing to launch products as planned, and This time, the "victim" is a very familiar name: Intel.

If you're interested in the Laptop market, you probably already know Intel plans to launch its own foldable laptop during the upcoming CES 2020. This is a product that Intel really expected because they saw the potential of folding screen technology more than a year ago, and spend a lot of money on developing and researching what factors will have an impact on the end user, can transform the computing experience in a way that few people would ever expect. However, this ambitious project is likely to continue to be delayed until at least mid-2020 as the operating system development partner for Intel - Microsoft is having problems with Windows 10 X.

Of course, Intel is not the first company to think about developing foldable laptops to create the dash for the already gloomy laptop market. Lenovo first mentioned the concept of foldable laptops since 2017, then launched a convincing concept in 2018. Another big name, Dell, also leaked related patents. to a folding screen laptop earlier this year. It is clear that many manufacturers are interested in this potential segment, but there is not really a commercially available foldable laptop, if Intel can launch such a product. right at CES 2020, that would be a huge advantage, but unfortunately everything is out of their control.

It's clear that Microsoft's delay in developing Windows 10 X has delayed OEM product launches by at least a year and they still have to accept because they simply have no other choice. While it is not a good idea to develop your own operating system platform for foldable devices. Even when Windows 10 X is released, it will take a long time for the platform to truly work and provide the best experience, and only OEMs and technology users can. The current do is waiting for the good news from Microsoft.
