According to foreign technology media reports, Microsoft will add more Android features to Windows Phone 8.1. According to the leaked development documents, Windows Phone 8.1 will provide support for 7-inch mobile phones with a resolution of 1280 * 768 or 1280 * 800 pixels. Obviously, Microsoft seems to think that the 6-inch model can no longer satisfy users. In addition to the unsalable RT tablet, perhaps the larger Windows "tablet phone" can attract users more.
In addition to supporting a larger screen, Windows Phone 8.1 will also support the "smart case" function. Similar to the products developed by Samsung, LG and HTC for their Android phones, the phones can display some personalized information when wearing the case, realizing a more convenient application form.
In addition, other potential functions include LTE support, customized lock screen, start screen folder and virtual function keys. The update is expected to be launched later this year, but the specific time is unknown.
