While the showcasing of Windows 10 was as much about a concerted push on the enterprise sector as anything else, Microsoft also noted that members of its wider ecosystem would be in better tune with one another, creating a more unified platform as a whole. No great details were given to elaborate on the "One product family,One platform, One store" slogan seen in a graphic at the event, but the accompanying images do offer something of a sneak peek into the future interfaces of both Windows Phone and Xbox.

As you can see, Windows 10 devices running up to the 6-inch mark offer a similar aesthetic to what Windows Phone users are already accustomed with, but intriguingly, mid-sized tablets of around 7 inches also appear to be headed for a Windows Phone-esque experience. As you’ll notice, the smallest of the three slates illustrated has the same home screen configuration as the two handsets to its left, and so through Windows 10 and beyond, it’s safe to assume that there’ll be a notable divide between the larger tablets / notebooks and the rest of the field.
