The Microsoft Lumia 950 XL smartphone was released in 2015 with Windows 10 Mobile. Six years have passed, and now he has already received the freshest Android 12: naturally, unofficially – through the efforts of an enthusiast.

Other smartphones (except Pixel) can only envy this Lumia 950 XL – they will receive Android 12 no earlier than June-July. And even then, first of all, the new Google OS will be released in beta version and only for a limited number of models from different manufacturers.
The Microsoft Lumia 950 XL also uses Android 12 beta for developers. According to the enthusiast, installing the OS on a smartphone takes a long 12 minutes. The system works with a touch screen and Bluetooth (if you copy the correct files to the right place), but there is no hardware acceleration of the graphical interface, so there is no question of any smooth operation. However, the basic functionality works as expected, you can install different applications and even use them.
