OnePlus Two Launched- A challenge for Microsoft Flagships

for me the 1+2 is not much of an upgrade from their previous device.

Reviews of this handset have been lukewarm at best. Not impressed. If I were looking for an android handset right now I be looking at Motorola who have compelling designs/specs at all pricepoints.

They left out a lot of must haves in the +2 imo. No NFC, No wireless charging, the camera is nothing to write home about, and from what I am reading it does not have "all day" power. The 950 mops this phone up. The only thing the one plus has going for it is apps from the play store. Once w10 is officially released, I am thinking the gap will close because of easy it is for dev's to reach Millions of new users with the universal app system. There are 14 million active W10 installs, lets say you develop or port over a good app that has a 2.00 price tag, only 500,000 people of that 14 million buy your app, you made a million extra dollars that you would not have without doing it. And for service providers, you have 14 million potential customers sitting there. Its a no brainer for me. Project Astoria makes getting the apps moved to windows a cinche.

Little movement in the Windows 10 store currently? They have millions of desktop users not mobile users?

Not what I mean. The were a relatively low numbers of users in the windows 8 camp weather it be mobile, or otherwise. The fact is the return on investment with developing a complete new app was not worth it. Therefore with w10, one port, one app, all platforms. Easy and simple to get returns on time/money investment for the app.
