By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

With the sheer amount of content and entertainment that most mobile devices can carry, Pico projectors are the ideal companions for enjoying this content on a larger scale and on-the-go.

Cellulon's PicoAir projector is incredibly tiny. At 7 ounces and with a very thin profile, it can be easily slipped into a shirt pocket or tossed into your gadget bag. We showed it to various people while asking them to guess what the device was and nobody guessed that this was a full-featured pico projector. It is very easy to confuse this with a sleek smartphone charger or external battery.

Is this Microsoft's upcoming Windows 10 flagship smartphone?

With all this talk about Windows 10 being able to run on 'all devices' as well as the Continuum feature which can turn a powerful smartphone into a desktop PC (given a dock, keyboard, monitor and mouse), there hasn't really been any hardware coming out of Microsoft that could demonstrate this ability. Until now.

The leaked photo above seems to belong to a 5.2-inch prototype Windows Phone which is said to be sporting a USB Type-C connector. It is hinted that this has a 20 megapixel PureView camera as well as a Snapdragon 808 processor and 3GB of RAM. Hopefully this device will be launched in time to ride the wave of interest that Windows 10 is enjoying right now.
