While Satya Nadella, Microsoft CEO, was in Paris earlier this week to discuss the funds released by the Redmond company on the monitoring of French startups, it comes from us an overview of what he has on his iPhone home screen. And yes, although his company is the long-time enemy of Apple, it still has one of the Cupertino giant smartphones. But Satya Nadella insists that this "iPhone Pro" is not his everyday smartphone. Pretty easy an answer you can not find?

While it is not a joke, know that Satya named it as "iPhone Pro". Obviously, it is in no way a new oversized prototype of Apple, but a simple iPhone, ALTHOUGH fully loaded with Microsoft productivity applications on the main homepage of the smartphone - which we discovered during Microsoft Future Decoded conference in London. So we know with what applications he plays all day long.
Although it therefore has an iPhone, Nadella does not really away from the Microsoft ecosystem, and one might even think that it is thanks to him that the technology giant has decided to s' open by publishing its own applications on iOS, but also on Android. Indeed, so far Microsoft applications and services were restricted to the platform of the firm itself. As we can see on the home screen of the iPhone, uses Bing Nadella, Outlook and OneNote. These applications are found positioned in the rapid application bar at the bottom of the screen. And all the other icons on the home screen are a showcase of Microsoft applications.
A new wind is blowing at Microsoft!
While Microsoft still holds more market share in the desktop OS and office suites, he also realized that, in this era of B ring Your Own Device (BYOD) and mobile, the choice is to bring services to users around the world. It is therefore understandable that Microsoft's progress on other platforms have received as much attention. This is especially true in Mobile, Microsoft must fight to munch on some market share.
Nadella insisted stating that the Microsoft Lumia 950 XL was his smartphone "everyday". Although we will not doubt his words, it is nevertheless good news that the company's CEO opens that makes competition to progress. And, it is clear what it is trying to instill in Microsoft. A wind through the Redmond giant and it's cool!
And you, do you have an iPhone with all Microsoft applications above?
