With Verizon showing no interest in new, Flagship Windows Phones and the chances of their unlocked 950xl not working on their system, I am facing either going iPhone or Android as I do need a refreshed battery for my ICON and Windows 10 mobile is just do disappointing on my ICON (battery drain is killer.)
So, if I had to upgrade (company owner teased but also gave me permission for me to get a new iPhone6s+ 128GB), which phone offers the best "Microsoft Experience?" For now, I assume, Cortana is still no yet available for either OS and that I WILL miss. We do have a spare iPhone laying around at work and I loaded it up with Outlook, Office Apps, OneDrive, OneNote, Groove Music, Sway, Microsoft Garage apps and other apps/experiences I have with Windows Phone. It isn't too bad...and the geeky side of me liked that Outlook on iOS uses the "Windows 10 notifications sounds"...nice.
I kind of like the Note5 due to the camera and the stylus for OneNote. But don't miss the quirk and eventual slowdowns with Androids.
And speaking of Camera...it is hard to let go of my ICON due to the camera. Which is better? iPhone6s or Note 5? I've heard good about both.
I really hate posting this but I am facing an upgrade with no options on Verizon for a newer Flagship Windows Phones...so looking for objective opinions here.
Thanks...
