In addition to the introduction of the new 13th generation processors for desktop computers, Intel has also just introduced Unison, an application that allows you to bring some functions of Android and iOS mobile devices to Windows computers.
Of course, it is not the only solution in this regard, where companies such as Samsung or Microsoft, among others, have been using their respective solutions for some time. But in Intel’s case, the company wants users to be able to “seamlessly” pair their mobile devices with their Windows PCs.
Facilitating operations between mobile and Windows PC
To do this, they will go through a “simple pairing process” so that from their computers they can now answer and make phone calls, send and receive text messages, exchange files and photos, including the ability to quickly view and edit a photo, and even interact with notifications.
iOS users may see minor differences from what Android device users receive, in that they will lack some advanced messaging features, for example, but overall both Android and iOS users will enjoy the main features. benefits.
There might also be slight differences with notifications with some of the third-party apps depending on the version of the Android or iOS operating system that is being used on the mobile device itself.
Intel Unison begins its journey by limiting its availability to a few devices. In this sense, for now it will be available for Intel Evo laptops with Intel 12th generation processors, although the broader expansion towards Evo laptops with 13th generation processors is expected as soon as next year.
The most curious thing about this launch is that it arrives in the midst of Apple’s transition to its own self-developed processors, moving away from Intel processors, which is why Intel wanted to leave Apple computers out.
Unison’s launch has been made possible by the acquisition of Israeli startup Screenovate last year, whose technology has been enhanced to better work with 12th and 13th generation processors.
