Reimagined Windows 12 Mobile concept

While we have talked about Windows 12 for PC for a long time, the imagined OS on mobile is even more aesthetically pleasing and user-oriented! But, will it take Microsoft back to its days of glory in the mobile space?

AR 4789, a concept creator who previously gave us a peek into what Windows 12 would be like, has now come up with another video envisioning Windows 12 on mobile. If we were to describe the imagined OS in one word, it’s tempting!

A refreshing concept, at par with Android and iOS

In our opinion, the concept for Windows 12 Mobile is loosely based on Windows 11. The Settings app and File Explorer resemble the ones on the current iteration. But having it on a mobile certainly is both visually appealing and user-friendly!

The concept features Microsoft Copilot, Microsoft Store, Media Player, Microsoft Photos, Microsoft 365 (previously Microsoft Office), Notepad, Paint, and several other apps that are a part of the Windows ecosystem.

Many have already requested Microsoft to revive Windows phones and introduce one with Windows 12. This highlights an undisputed fact. Even though Windows phones failed, they had a massive following, and the community still has its hopes up!

Will there be a Windows 12 Mobile?

While there was speculation from several quarters about the release of Windows 12, Microsoft instead came up with an update for the latest iteration, Windows 11 24H2. This means, there will be no Windows 12, at least in 2024!

So, it seems unlikely that Microsoft is planning a Windows 12 mobile. Besides, after the debacle of Windows-based phones and their subsequent discontinuation in 2019, Microsoft will surely take more time to reinvent a device that can compete with Android and iOS, if that’s ever the case.

But the concept by AR 4789 has surely got us excited! Almost all comments on the video were positive and people wanted Windows 12 Mobile to be an actual thing, powered by Microsoft.

Now I want to have a Windows 12 smartphone with the GUI you created. Great work. When will Microsoft listen to you and make you the boss of the design department?

Quite honestly, we do hope Microsoft listens to the community and releases a Windows 12 mobile. There are surely millions of takers for it!
