I am one of 5 kids. I now have my mom, dad and one of my brothers using WP8 phones. That makes 4 out of 7. 3 more to go *taps fingers like Mr. Burns*

They all seem good with it. That said, none of them are heavy smartphone users, so they aren't too demanding.

They all have either 521 or 520. That price point is money for people.

Out of the last 3:

One is a tight wad that only owns a feature phone for emergencies. Otherwise, all home phone use.
Second is using a iPhone 3g but wants a phone with a big screen. If he holds off on upgrading until a Nokie Phablet comes, maybe I can get him.
Third is in a full out Apple family. Don't think I have a chance.

Let me guess, the tightwad is the oldest brother?

The one that is coming over from iphone surprised me. Thought there was no way. But she said she's had enough, likes ours and wants a 1020. The one holdout's is provided by his work so not much chance of him changing in the near future.

It is hard to mess with free or cheap!

I haven't had as much luck with my family. My sister bought in, as did my cousin, but that's it. My dad's becoming a technological *****, and he just got a Droid M on a whim because it was free (when I offered to help him pick out a phone). My grandma and her husband ARE technological simpletons, and both have the iPhone 4S, along with an iPad 2 for my grandma. My brother-in-law was too impatient to wait for the 920 and got the Galaxy S III last summer, though he likes it just fine (and it DOES offer some things that WP couldn't for his med school purposes). My mom's an iPhone dummy, and she and her mom have iPad minis. That grandma doesn't have a smartphone as of now, but will likely end up with an iPhone as well, sadly.

As for the rest, they're not folks I interact with much. They're mostly in the iPhone Kool-Aid, I think, though I can't say for certain.
