Android OS on PC Laptop or Microsoft Surface

DeCoY · Feb 2, 2020

With all the new touch screen Laptops and PC's on the market like the Microsoft Surface with I3,5 and 7 CPU's, I was thinking of loading an Android OS and using them in place of a phone screen.

Has anybody installed an Android OS on a Clone PC Laptop or Tablet?

I don't think that is possible. But Microsoft is supposed to release the Surface Duo soon - a dual screen phone/tablet powered by Android.

It is possible to install Android onto a PC, more so has anyone tried it with the Mavic software?

Thanks for that, I didn't know it was possible. I have an old Surface Pro 3 sitting around and I would have loved to try this. Unfortunately, its screen is cracked and its touch screen does not work.

Easy peasy, just load "Bluestacks", an Android "sandbox", onto your pc.
Then you can load and run Android app in the Bluestacks sandbox.

bluestacks - Google Search

@DeCoY Can you tell me if this worked for you? I had a similar idea tonight. I have a surface laptop I was thinking about using on a Mavic Mini and then using the video out on it to plug into FPV goggles.
