My first smartphone was an Android and it was for work. It works well for my job needs since I can use my Google account for a lot of things. Then for my personal, I was debating between iPhone, Android or Windows Phone. Well I was already familiar with iOS since I had an iPod but iPhone was too pricey. For Android, I already had one and could've just got another one with dual-sim. But I was curious about Windows Phone.
I did some research, and I liked the tiles. I went to a local Microsoft Store, played around with a few and liked the tiles customization, that there's a removable battery and microSD slot. So then I decided, "Heck, why not?" My first WP was an Acer Liquid M220 that I got earlier this year. After a few months of it, I decided I wanted bigger and faster so then I got a used Lumia 640 in great condition and liked it. Then I got a used Lumia 535 for dual sim purposes. The phone is less stellar than the 640, but it does what I need it to do but I do want to get back to my 640. Then I got my dad a new Lumia 640 via Black Friday deal and he likes it for its simplicity. I got to play around with the 950XL but there's no way I'm spending that much for it or the 950.
So I've been lurking around here for a while and I'm very well aware of the app gap and it doesn't bother me much. I don't need SnapChat or FB. I got 6tag for IG, music apps, a couple of games, and Here Drive and Maps, which is freaking wonderful that I can download certain maps and use it offline. The stock weather and sports app is enough to satisfy my needs. Again, this is for my personal phone. If I need more apps for productivity, I still have my Android for work. I may have adopted WP at a shaky time, but for now I'm satisfied with it.
I like gadgets and I don't have any particular brand loyalties. I just use whatever is helpful or convenient for me. Heck, I'm typing this on my MacBook Pro. Call me eclectic.
