Sun 30 October 2022: 

Tech giant Microsoft has published a Windows 11 preview build with an update for “Phone Link” that will enable users to connect directly to their Android phone from their computer through a mobile hotspot in an effort to improve user experience.

Windows Central reportedly stated that Microsoft is now putting out a Windows 11 preview build that is only accessible to Insiders on its Dev Channel, according to Android Authority.

Some issues and improvements have been addressed in this preview build. Additionally, it appears that Microsoft’s Phone Link app will also be updated in the new build

With this update, users will be able to directly connect Windows 11 to their phone’s mobile hotspot by using the Windows Wi-Fi panel.

The new feature works similarly to how macOS can easily connect with an iPhone hotspot, it added.

However, the new Phone Link feature is currently only available for Samsung handsets running One UI 4.1.1 and higher.

The report suggests that Microsoft might ultimately decide to support additional devices like the Surface Duo.

Microsoft recently began distributing Android 12L to the Surface Duo and Surface Duo 2, strengthening the links between the Duo tablets and Windows 11 PCs.
