Is that mobile able to work with windows. I mean if i will install windows on it, will it work fine ?
Hi, the quick answer for your question is no. Because the default operating system for Sony Xperia Go/Advance is Android. But, some people out there have time to tweak the operating system (especially Windows that you ask), although I know it is hard to do, but nothing impossible in this world, right? Anyway, we suggest for you to buy new smartphone with Windows default native operating system, so the phone with default operating system will run for all phone functions such as camera or light or sound or video or any other functions.
