Is it just me, but i see more and more "flame" topics lately.
If you dont like the ecosystem than go find a other one
I am not a fan of any OS, but it gives what i need.
Its just a Phone, if i want a watch i buy a seiko
I dont want to walk around al wiredup like somekind of a puppet on a string.
Inovation does not mean that you have to push every new thingy on the market.
How many Droid phones has failed over the years?
Look in al the other fora, problems all over.
Not only Droid, Ios also...........just like WP, and is it not the OS then its the hardware.
There is no holy grail.
All these inapp chatsapps are hardly used.
Most people hang on what they are used to.
Here its Whatsapp, Telegram, Viber.................
Microsoft had Messenger, and i due believe that they abandend it.......i am not sure about that.
The mainstream uses thirdparty apps
So why reinventing the wheel if people not going to use them.
MS has a firm grip on the market with the Windows Operating systems.
Ofcourse with ups and downs, but stil its never defeated.
I crossed over because i was curious and i was tired of bughunting, trying make my expencive phone work like i wanted to.
No suddent reboots or forced closings, and tried different roms to make it my own.
Its fun to do, but if i buy something, it should work right out of the box without tweaking.
Nokia has a little cheap phone called 520, even with the low specs it works great and snappy.
Try that with a droid phone with the same specs or price.
Cant speak for Apples ios, they dont have a real budgetline...........not for my wallet.
And i dont like the ecosystem of Apple, but that does not mean that it is not good, i just dont like it.
Besides that, i dont want to give more then 300,- max for a phone, i got other hobbys.
I bought a 1320 for 170?, thats about 230$ give or take, i find that pretty expensive ( oke it came with a leather flipcover, otherwise it whas a complete ripoff ).
There is no road on the tech field that MS havend drove already.
They had smartphones/pocketpc's, smartwatches, tablets long before al these others.
I had once at my job a pannel with XP embedded, dont know the brand.
I remember a docu with Gates about MS and the house of the future, wel thats inovation.
Apple was just started and Google ???????? a couple of nosepicking teenagers on a schoolyard.
So if you dont like the MS ecosystem or the way its going, then there are planty of others.
Amen
