    What's the state of Windows 10 Mobile? Is it worth it right now?

    Nahh, after knowing Apple is paying 0.005% tax here in Europe when it's making truckloads of money, **** them, really. I'll try a OnePlus 3, which had been having extremely positive reviews, and buy a Lumia 650 as suggested, just to check out the state of the platform.

    How many people actually use Apps?

    If they are good, why not? Apps are more convenient if they have been properly made. And now that apps can be used in a more mainstream way, it's a plus. For example, I use the weather app, Flightradar24 app, and some other apps.
