    What features would an Android user miss after switching to W10M?

    Can someone explain to me what the Frick Microsoft has been up to? From the outside it doesn't seem like they are serious at all. When I had my 920 it was the same. From the outside looking in there has been no news except less functionality than 8 which had less functionality than 7. Sent...

    Prediction: the death of phone subsidies will be great for Windows Phone in the US

    Just switched carriers to Verizon and after my experience with the 920 and seeing the continual degradation of each windows phone os from its predecessor, I am happy to pay more for a quality phone with quality software. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Just saw this video of Android Lollipop. Is WP way behind?

    Not exactly sure where people are getting this "android is copying metro" thing. Can someone elaborate? It doesn't look look anything like WP, in fact, it looks more low-key and muted instead of bright, like WP. I see no live tiles and I also see no giant app list.

    Why the iPhone 6 Camera Beats the 1020

    I hope you don't mean that the image is pixelated like a shotgun's ;) J/K I agree, too many people nowadays look at specs and not the overall experience. The camera is definitely Nokia's strong suit and they need to really keep up. Not only that but really start putting work into the OS to make...

    LOLOLOL iPhone 6 faces new #hairgate criticism: Users' hair gets stuck in phone.....

    Hey when you're on top, the jealous ones on the bottom are going to do anything at all to try to bring you down. And no, my 6 Plus has not pulled any of my hair nor bent in any pocket but good luck in your smear campaigns. Salman, I really enjoy your posts; you're really level-headed and...

    Why the iPhone 6 Camera Beats the 1020

    Dude, I appreciate your review but you just walked in to a lion's den covered in meat. These people don't take criticism well even if it might mean Microsoft/Nokia improving their cameras in response to Apple's achievement. amrut's photos are really spectacular but photography isn't just about...

    It was fun!

    It's always what is best for the user but I am surprised Microsoft still hasn't become more attentive to the platform; it is worrying. It's why I left the platform; I was sick of waiting. Windows Phone is always a fun, dynamic OS that I miss sometimes but the cons always outweighed the pros. I...

    IPhone 6 sending SMS to Windows devices

    So if realwarder is done blaming everything on Apple now and I don't have to go through all the features that should be on Windows Phone 8 right now but aren't, to the OP: Have the iphone user go to Voice Memos. Record the sound byte and send it that way to whatever user they want

    IPhone 6 sending SMS to Windows devices

    Why does everything Apple does for it's phones need to be given to others? If you want cross platform communication use WhatsApp or BBM. Should I expect all of Windows Phone 8 features be given to every other platform now since Windows doesnt support lock-in?

    Windows 10 Impressions?

    For me, Windows 8 on a laptop was a huge pain. I dreaded going into Windows and only did so to play games(dual boot from Mac). I do not want apps taking up the entire screen. That is ridiculous. I really do hope Windows 10 goes back to the Windows 7 paradigm and only allows the "modern", less...

    Why do most people hate windows 8?

    I use windows 8 on my dual booted MacBook and I dreaded having to use metro. I don't want apps taking up my entire screen. Settings was a pain in the ***. It severely hampered work flow. I don't want a touch dominated OS on my laptop.

    Windows 10 Impressions?

    It doesn't make any sense but there is a possibility that they did it to get people talking about the weird numbering system and hence the OS. I just hope for windows phone users that it won't be a downgrade like windows phone 7 to windows phone 8 was.
