Sean Endicott is a tech journalist at Windows Central primarily focused on Windows, Microsoft software, AI, and PCs. Dating back to the days of Windows Phone, Sean has long been intrigued by anything that turns the tech world on its head. If it folds, flips, or has multiple screens, Sean wants to get his hands on it.
Over the last decade, Sean covered the launches of Windows 10, Windows 11, and hundreds of devices made by Microsoft, Google, Meta, Dell, Lenovo, Razer, and many other companies. Sean was there for the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and has followed closely as AI has been integrated into everything from smartphones to making videos.Between product announcements, Sean scours through patents and studies leaks to find out what’s on the way in the world of tech.
Sean’s journey into tech kicked off with the Lumia 740, which placed him squarely in the Microsoft ecosystem. Finding third-party apps out of necessity led Sean to build relationships with app developers. Those relationships sparked a career full of app reviews and behind-the-scenes looks at development.
Outside of writing, Sean coaches American football. His team’s back-to-back northern championships in the UK were powered, in part, by Microsoft services. His team's attendance is tracked in Excel. He uses Clipchamp for his highlight videos. Even Microsoft Forms plays a role when getting player feedback.
Sean studied broadcast journalism at Nottingham Trent University before joining us in the world of online news. You can find him on X (formerly Twitter) @Sean Endicott_ or on Threads at sean_endicott_.
