"Through a new program with Xiaomi, one of the top smartphone distributors in the world, a select group of Xiaomi Mi 4 power s will be invited to help test Windows 10 and contribute to its future release later this year", the company had then noted in a blog post. "These power s will have the opportunity to the Windows 10 Technical Preview - installing it and providing their to Microsoft".

As Microsoft diminishes its mobile manufacturing efforts, the aforementioned partnership was speculated as a way for the company to get more people to try out its mobile operating system.

But a public release of Windows 10 Mobile for Mi 4 handsets does seem to paint a positive picture, and, may even indicate that more ROMs may be released to other Xiaomi phones.

Gadgets 360 reached out to Microsoft last week for comments on the program, and the company requested more time. We've reached out to Xiaomi for more information as well, and will update this article when we get a response.
