I disagree with it being non-intuitive, but TOTALLY agree with why buy a smart phone with no apps. There are features that to me are WAY easier and more user friendly than Android or iOS. For example if you select a word or term and hit the search button you can do a search. No cutting and...

Been a while since I posted this thread. You still think the Surface phone is around the corner? Waiting on my Samsung Galaxy S7 now. Not a fan of Google, but not a fan of HIGH priced iPhones with no SD card slot either or phone types. (Only one design) Like my HTC M8 (Only $100 used), but...

Some of the my biggest dilemmas are 1. I have an HTC M8 more than capable of from a spec perspective, but no real(Solid) upgrade path for it and as a daily driver can't deal with a buggy os. 2. Not sure if it's a OS or Service provider issue, but getting my text messages, especially group text...

One of the selling points of Windows Phone initially was that it could run on lesser hardware and still be snappy, but with 10 it's clunky and doesn't work well these same devices. The app fap is definitely a HUGE dilemma as well, but things seemed to be moving in the right direction, before...

Love the OS, but always a waiting game. Things seemed to be progressing fine and the boom it seems as if it completely died. What happened and how did we get to this sad state? Once good OS now unstable and no Phones? 😢

Actually I quit :cry: I've hoped for the best for a while now, but with so many apps getting cut from 8.1 and with W10M still being so bugging I've decided to move on. Windows Phone 8.1 apps also seem to be getting buggier and with the move to W10M I feel that the support will be gone pretty...

@Cracgor EXACTLY!!!!!!! Tech years amount to more than dog years and what iOS and Android were able to do in 6 years vs what Windows Phone has been able to do is yin and yang. After 5 plus years of Windows Phone things should be going forward and not backward. The progress that we'd thought we'd...

I think is a ridiculous argument and believe that some folks are brainwashed. Yeah we all know nothing is perfect, but one of the BIG selling points of Windows Phone in the first place was it's stability and the fact that it was able to run smoothly on even a low end device. With WM10 that's...

The iPhone came out in 2007 and by 2010 they were coming out with the iPhone 4... It was a success. Not "Perfect" (Nothing Is), but a success. After 3 years. In 2010 MS launched Windows 7 and by 2014 were on to Windows Phone 8.1, but unfortunately not with the same level of success. A couple of...

How has your experience been a year later with your M8? Do you still have/use it? I want to upgrade via the Insider program, but I'm really nervous about possibly having issues on a phone that's my daily driver.

So I recently bought an HTC M8 from eBay and I LOVE IT! I miss the camera button and Glance, but that's pretty much it and I've gotten over it. I was able to get it used for a little over $100, so not a real hit to the wallet. Now unfortunately the M8 will not be getting WM10 support at least as...

I know it's not "Officially" gone yet but losing the HERE Maps app which has been a stable to the OS for so long and an app I use quite often is a real downer. In "MY" opinion the term "Smart Phone" means your phone is able to more thus allowing you to do more and without the proper app...

Lumia 950 vs HTC One M8? What are your thoughts?

Lumia 810 Lumia 925 HTC M8 I'm on T-Mobile and these were the options I had available. I recently switched to an HTC M8 as I wanted to have more storage, slightly larger screen and SD Card support. I bought it on Ebay for a little over $100 and I LOVE IT. I'm still running 8.1 and I do miss...

Re: How Windows Fan Boys are helping to KILL the platform!!!! I agree with MS messing up and I'm by no means saying that Fanboys are the be all end all, but they are indeed part of the problem. Their attitude helped lead to a phone that I don't believe is one that any real phone wanted and it...
