Does W10 support Arm devices?

[Wolfie]

Hi all,

simple Q, I have an:

Excelvan T95N Smart TV box with Android 6 + 8GB.
Amlogic S905.
Cortex A53 Quad-Core 64 Bit.
GPU=Penta-core ARM Mali-450

and want to know if I can install W10 on it?.

I am not exactly sure what size footprint W10 would leave on such a small drive though? (it might even be too small for a full W10 install?).

Answers on a postcard please.

Just to add, I am talking about completely wiping the media box and just having W10 installed on it!.

AFAIK it is suppose to in the near future, specifically the Mobile Version. Just read that it supports so far only the snapdragon CPU series. I think it will be just a matter of time until other ARM device are supported.....

There is considerable talk currently as Grizzly mentioned regarding Windows on Arm, but......
I believe in most instances it's what we used to call SoC (System on Chip) or "embedded"
I don't believe it's currently available in a flavor that allows for consumer installs.
Maybe that will change.... who knows? Probably someone out there right now in their garage or basement, working on a "mod"

Thanks for the replies chaps, I did find a small snippet of info about ARM support in late 2017 here:

If you want Windows 10 on your Arm I know a great tattooist

Caveat: Not entirely sure about International Trade Mark laws, so perhaps select the arm you don't write with.

I know a great tattooist

Perhaps a different location might be more appropriate for a Windows 10 tattoo
I managed to survive 3 years in the U.S. military without acquiring a tattoo, so I think I'll just stick with my Windows 10 Insider T-Shirt.

I can always go to a "Military Tattoo" with the "Armed Forces"!.
