January 22, 2026, 8:30 PM EST. NexPhone packs an Android handset built on Qualcomm's QCM6490 with 12 GB of RAM and rugged, IP68 hardware. It runs three OSes-Android, Linux, and Windows 11 on Arm-via NexOS, switching between mobile, desktop and Linux desktop modes when docked. The device ships with a five-port USB-C hub and, optionally, the NexDock laptop shell for a 14.1-inch workspace on the road. Windows 11 on Arm still faces app-compatibility gaps; emulation can sap performance and battery life. Multi-boot adds complexity, appealing mainly to enthusiasts rather than casual users. NexPhone is not about ripping up laptops, but about giving a Linux-friendly, multi-OS crowd a single device to carry. Success hinges on software delivering three clean experiences rather than one compromised system.
