Bill Gates, the billionaire founder of Microsoft, says he uses an Android phone.

This is despite the fact that Microsoft has its own Windows-powered devices, which have not been as successful as Google’s Android phones.

Now the company’s own founder has been seduced by the competition.

He was also asked what he thought of Apple’s co-founder Steve Jobs, with whom he had a colourful relationship, and the new iPhone X.

“Steve was a genius, it’s great that Apple’s continuing to do good work. I happen to use all Windows-based PCs,” he said.

Asked if he had an iPhone too, he responded: “No, no iPhone.”
