Getting my Note 4 today. Will still be keeping my Ativ S and L830 as backup devices but, sadly, I don't find WP attractive anymore.
Current phone : Nokia N8 ( Symbian <3 )
Next phone : A white L1520!
After that... who knows!
I eagerly bought an HTC 8X two and half years ago. I've been very happy with Windows Phone. I hated the android phone that I left behind and I've never liked iOS or Apple in general. I'm locked into Verizon because of work and coverage, so changing carriers has never been an option. I almost pulled the trigger on the Icon back a few months ago. I waited a few days to think it over, and suddenly it disappeared from Verizon's website. Whew, glad I waited!!
So, I was content on waiting for the next Lumia flagship, but my patience was wearing thin. I own a 520 and 635 and very happy with both devices. I was sure something would come out soon and I'd be in WP heaven again. However, my 8X finally died. It had been showing signs of a slow death for several weeks and it finally threw in the towel. I went to the Verizon store Saturday and bought an iPhone 6.
I'm sorry to say that I have officially abandoned Windows Phone and will probably not return. This iPhone is a very high quality device. The apps are beautiful and work perfectly. It has so much more to offer than the Windows Phone. It may sound strange to say this, but I actually feel liberated. Maybe one day I'll return to WP, but I seriously doubt there will even be a WP for very much longer.
Good bye Windows Phone. Best of luck.
I'm curious, why were you relieved after Verizon removed it? I just activated mine less than a week ago and can't be happier. I guess certain apps will motivate some more than others, but I'm confused as to the relief you felt to Verizon removing the device...?
I happen to like this OS very much and hope it doesn't go anywhere.
LLets flash it with CM rom :vI am thinking about Samsung S6 - the design is awesome and Android has more apps
