While it has been previously reported that Microsoft has cancelled its Project MacLaren with no apparent reason, it might be possible that the Redmond tech giant has continued working on the upcoming flagship as it was previously rumored that there would be three Windows 10 based phone coming on Q2-Q4 of 2015.
Few months ago, WindowsBlogItalia revealed one of the Project MacLaren's killer feature, the Mixview feature and showed an actual documentation from Microsoft.
"The feature would have a central small tile (150×150 pixels) surrounded by up to 8 tiles which could have a combination of text and images. These tiles would have been activated by hovering over the small tile, but in non-3D Touch handsets it would work by touching a corner area of the tile with ellipses instead,'' WM Power User wrote.
"On a Facebook Tile you may see a messaging Tile and phone for example that would allow Windows Phone users to quickly call pinned contacts. The Tiles displayed on screen look like they have simply exploded from the original tile."
In addition, it was also revealed in the documentation that the feature supports up to 4 tiles optionally overlaid with a single text ring normally used as label and 'if the user hovers over one of these sub-tiles the, the text scroll.''
As for its specs, it is safe to assume that it will be powered by a Snapdragon 808 or 810; a camera which is higher than Lumia 1020's 41MP with PureView technology and a higher RAM coupled with a larger space of internal storage.
