When Windows Phone 8 came out I read several articles about it being the only OS out there with "true multitasking".
After having used it however I found that it is neither true, nor fast as the one found on Android.
It suspends activities like iOS does.
But with Windows Phone 8.1 they did add background processes but I didn't see them working in any app, Torrex Pro claimed to have it but it never worked.
I use utorrent on my Android phone, it perfectly downloads everything in the background, yes it consumes battery but allows me to do much more.
I like Android's approach best.
So how does my email update in the background? How about app updates? I'm confused as to how these are happening in the foreground when I'm not using those apps, but browsing the web or playing a game?
