I am loving windows phone 8.1. Are you?

I'm loving the 8.1 update. There are a plethora of enhancements and features that makes the OS more solid than it was before. I believe this update will bring WP up to par with the likes of iOS and Android. I've seen a few people call it Android-esque (in a negative light), which I believe is nowhere near the case. People must understand that this is a PREVIEW FOR DEVELOPERS and whether they believe it or not, is NOT (man, I wish I could stress this enough) the final product that will be shipped out later in the year. There are bound to be bugs, stutters, and other problems associated with it. I knew the risk when I decided to upgrade to this PREVIEW. Wait to loathe and make such comments--or praise and make such comments--once the final product (bundled with Nokia Cyan) comes about.

I think it is great. I love the notification center. I'm not big on digital assistants because I've never had one before, but I am trying out Cortana and I really like having her "available". There's really too many improvement to list. But I am really quite happy with it. That doesn't mean that everything is perfect, I too want to see my games listed only in the Games hub. I prefer that they improve the wi-fi geofencing feature. I'd like to see wide tiles that extend all the way across the three tile display. No doubt I could list other necessary improvements, but we all know that this is not the final iteration of Windows Phone.

Overall, I am one happy camper....

one thing that surprised me is it only adds 0.1 from previous update, yet it brings us a damn lot of new features

Love it so far. WP Central needs to get on the ball and get a transparent live tile... Really? They should have been first.

They did recently. The update to the WPcentral app is awesome.

My phone feels new, I always want it to be unlocked so my start screen will be seen.
I guess I am the only one that has dev unlocked WP and updated to 8.1 in our region. HAHA
I feel blessed.

Lumia 920 is love.

Awesome.

WP8.1 is great. Especially Cortana. I've been using her more and more for doing searches. My wife is kind of jealous. She has a GS3 and her Google Now is not as accurate or fast. There are some things that still need some work though; like WiFi "geofencing" and email attachments (other than photos). Otherwise, a HUGE improvement. Now, it will be interesting what Nokia does with its Cyan update (for us Nokia users).

Wifey is also jealous over here. I think Cortana when in female mode is a threat to most woman. Lol
