That's good to know, OK, same OS, but keeping the same interface?
> Of course that's all moot now since they've given up on phones.
What I rather had in mind was not the interface, but some other things which are "normal" to have on phones: forced updates, impossible to aquire root rights with factory OS, pre-installed shit apps, ads (like on factory-fresh Xiomi, out of the box). So when I saw "ads" and I know the updates are forced, that's where I meant PCs are becoming more like smartphones.
That smartphones are unlikely to become more like PCs is an issue of hardware.
