We all know this build is compiled to support all upcoming ARM SoC vendors and I have listed down their dedicated threads in CPU section below:

• Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 series
• Nvidia N1 and N1x Threads
• AMD Soundwave ARM APU
• Mediatek SoC Threads
• Samsung Exynos SoC Threads

Judging by the new build number 28000, could Microsoft's next release be denoted as version 26H1 or new naming?

The linked article mentions only snapdragon & n1x

Doesn’t mention soundwave, exynos or non-nv mediatek. I am guessing that will be WoA12 & not WoA11
