Already KitKat has polished android little bit of fine tuning required which is android l.But still wp is very aesthetically superior os.

and still, apps cannot be saved to the sd card if they use widgets. Go windows phone!Android will never compare in battery life to iOS and Windows Phone? Lol.
Maybe Android's approach on multitasking may not be the most battery friendly, but considering that we Android OEM's are already coming out with near 4000 mAH battery it surpasses the competition(maybe not through software, but definitely through hardware).
User profiles is extremely useful IMO, so is screen pinning. I have often found myself giving my phone to someone to make a call and they eventually "try" to snoop into my SMS or something, user profiles(or screen pinning) will help me(and a hell lot of other users).
Android has never been at the bottom of security charts, nor are anti-viruses recommended on Android. Please get your facts straight.

The fact that Android is more open, people mess with superuser permissions and install applications not from the Play Store is why some users put themselves at risk, Google is not to blame for this.
Also the reason why Windows Phone has yet to get any kind of security threats is primarily because no hackers care enough for this OS, in fact most of the general population don't care either.
And there are other things regarding security in Android Lollipop apart from encryption(which WP to the best of my knowledge doesn't have).
And you forgot to mention: the new ART runtime(upto 4X faster performance), 60 FPS animations, hotword activiation when phone is off(for supported devices), 8 MP burst mode, better lock screen notifications, better notifications and power toggles, trusted face, better graphics in games(they we're already significantly better than WP), low latency audio processing(Android could see professional voice recording apps soon), support for 64 bit hardware, and applications, etc.
It's way more exciting of an update than any WP update I've heard of.
windows phone already has 64bit support(alcatel is selling a phone with a snapdragon 410. Through GDR updates, more chipsets are supported. 60fps Animations? Really? How does that help the customer in anyway. Battery life concerns however it could be optimised. We already have burst modes, including 8mp. We got that with 8.1. In terms of graphics, it's te developers fault that graphics are better on the android version. However they are alright, look at lumia 930/1520 gaming on youtube. Direct X 12 is coming too. We have kids corner and a mode that allows the phone to be used as if it was a demo phone in a store introduced in 8.1 update 1. 8.1 enabled bitlocker encryption. All the other features are things people can live without.Android will never compare in battery life to iOS and Windows Phone? Lol.

No. Once again: Android will never compare in battery life to iOS and Windows Phone. I was actually waiting for someone to try to make this argument. It doesn't matter if an Android OEM does put a 4000mAH battery in their device. You know why? Windows Phone OEMs can do the same. It's already been proven running the same hardware, Windows Phone has better battery life. Also, that entire point was about Android (which is an OS; i.e software), so bringing up bigger batteries isn't a very valid point.Android will never compare in battery life to iOS and Windows Phone? Lol.

Honestly, I'm not sure how to address this point. So, you give your phone to others to make a call and then walk away? Are these strangers, or people you know? In any case, it isn't very smart to leave your phone with anyone unattended, especially those that are untrustworthy. I'll chalk this up to user-error.User profiles is extremely useful IMO, so is screen pinning. I have often found myself giving my phone to someone to make a call and they eventually "try" to snoop into my SMS or something, user profiles(or screen pinning) will help me(and a hell lot of other users).
Don't allow personal feelings to cloud reasoning and judgment. Android is insecure. It has the worst security of the big three mobile OS. Malware in the Google Play Store is prevalent, and an issue. Anti-malware apps are recommended. Face facts. I said before and I'll say it again: you're trading security for freedom.Android has never been at the bottom of security charts, nor are anti-viruses recommended on Android. Please get your facts straight.

There are reasons I didn't mention these. ART isn't a big deal, as cool as it is. 60 FPS animations, I doubt are a consistent 60. Lock screen notifications are pretty ridiculous. Why would you want your notifications on your lock screen for anyone to see? It's good there's different levels for how much info you want displayed, though. I won't discuss graphics since you seem incapable of separating your opinions from facts. As for 64-bit hardware, I read about some WP device being released with the Snapdragon 410 SoC, but that really isn't surprising, considering 64-bit hardware is capable of running 32-bit code. As for support for 64-bit applications, well, the majority of developers will continue to create 32-bit apps, seeing as how they aren't even taking advantage of the multiple cores already, which is to say, the majority of applications don't need the extra power.And you forgot to mention: the new ART runtime(upto 4X faster performance), 60 FPS animations, hotword activiation when phone is off(for supported devices), 8 MP burst mode, better lock screen notifications, better notifications and power toggles, trusted face, better graphics in games(they we're already significantly better than WP), low latency audio processing(Android could see professional voice recording apps soon), support for 64 bit hardware, and applications, etc.

Anyway, time to face reality, bud.
Apps and games on Android do in fact take advantage of multiple cores, and there are instances on Windows Phone when it would be fantastic to to have the extra power of running a multi-threaded application.
Take advantage of multiple cores? Yes. Apps and games that somewhat use two cores are a dime a dozen on any OS, including WP. I suspect you are referring to apps and games that can consistently saturate three cores or more. I'm not aware of any such apps or games on any mobile OS. You have anything to back that claim up with? Everything I'm aware of suggests that is BS.
I remembered which app I was looking for, it's called Perf Mon: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.perfmon
I checked Dead Trigger again, 3 cores are being consistently used, and the 4th gets enabled whenever there's an explosion or guts are flying all over the place.
Hmm, interesting... Thx for that. Will get back to you.
You have the ultimate form of evidence in the HTC one m8. It's the exact same phone, same hardware, running both WP and android. It's been shown that the WP m8 gives more battery life.
The dev tool application analysis is the only thing I know of.Does anyone know of a WP app that measures cpu usage in real time?
Why compare those two devices with different displays and processors? You have the ultimate form of evidence in the HTC one m8. It's the exact same phone, same hardware, running both WP and android. It's been shown that the WP m8 gives more battery life.
