比尔盖茨改用安卓手机 拒绝使用iPhone

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has revealed he uses an Android-powered smartphone, rather than a Windows one.

微软联合创始人比尔·盖茨日前透露，他现在使用的是一台安卓手机，而非Windows手机。

"Recently, I actually did switch to an Android phone," he said, speaking on Fox News Sunday.

他在接受《福克斯周日新闻》采访时表示：“最近，我确实改用安卓手机了。”

Microsoft's own Windows-powered phones have failed to make a significant impact on the smartphone market, which is dominated by devices running Google's Android operating system.

微软公司的Windows系统手机在智能手机市场上并未产生重大影响，该市场目前依旧由谷歌的安卓操作系统为主导。

However, Mr Gates said he had installed lots of Microsoft apps on his phone.

不过，盖茨称他的手机上安装了很多微软的应用程序。

When asked whether he also had an iPhone, perhaps as a secondary device, he replied: "No, no iPhone."

当被问及是否使用苹果手机、或者将苹果手机作为备用机时，他的回答是：“不，不，不用苹果手机。”

He did not reveal which particular smartphone he currently uses.

此外，他并未透露自己最近使用的是哪款智能手机。

Microsoft struggled to make a success of its own mobile operating system, Windows Phone.

微软一直努力在其手机操作系统Windows Phone上取得成功。

In 2014, the software giant paid $7.2bn (5.5bn pounds) for Nokia's handset business, but Windows-powered phones accounted for fewer than 1% of global smartphone sales in 2016.

2014年，这家软件巨头公司支付72亿美元（约55亿英镑）收购了诺基亚的手机业务，但是2016年Windows系统手机的销售量只占全球智能手机的不到1%。
