Will you stay with Windows Phone?

Yes for a long, long time.

Already left and Here Maps wasn't the reason. I've been a paid version Co-pilot user for years and have no need for something else.

We'll one navigation application can't make or break your experience with an OS, I doubt people cling onto their Windows Phones just because of HERE Maps, because there are lots of other reasons why Windows Phones are great.

With that said, a key part of why I left Windows Phone was "navigation" in general, HERE Maps is great but if your country isn't supported(like mine wasn't), tough luck because the rest of the navigation apps on Windows Phone are in short, terrible.

I've been using Sygic for as long as I can remember, it's a paid navigation application on Android that offers great coverage for most countries and works offline.

HERE Maps can be installed on any Android smartphone, the HERE Maps for Android does seem like a better version than the Windows Phone one, but I still have the same problem: MY COUNTRY ISN'T SUPPORTED.

On the fence. Have been happy with my Lumia 925, but it is showing it's age and I really don't see any flagship devices that I want. That, and the lack of apps and app quality compared to iOS and Android is starting to bug me more and more. The slow camera too. Going back and forth on this topic every day. Will probably stay, but ...I realize that MS is trying and I applaud their effort, but my enthusiasm has subsided lately. Then again, it's just a phone

I'm having a tough time deciding on whether to leave. I currently have the Lumia 1520 and love the phone and OS, but the third party apps are terrible compared to their android/ios versions and XB music has been really problematic. I'm actually considering getting the iphone 6 plus with it's crappy interface just so I can have access to itunes exclusives. FYI, you can upload itunes exclusive songs to google's music cloud service, but not XB music - you get an unknown song/match error). I also like that fingerprint sensor on the iphone as I always enable security on the lock screen. On the other hand, I know Android has some better OS features and app versions (e.g. LastPass) then ios so I'm also considering the Note 4. Also, since I use Chrome as my desktop browser, Google Now is freaking awesome (I have an older android phone I still play with). I'm basically waiting to see the reviews of new phones coming out and I'll probably make a decision after seeing the Nexus 6 and the Note 4... or hope Nokia/MS makes an announcement.

Yes I will stay with Microsoft Windows Phone. The Windows Phone Operating System is buttery smooth and delightful. There are more apps than I could ever use, including Navigon (an excellent speaking gps navigation app that uses Nokias' Navteq maps.) The huge list of features and the modern and great look.

Now, I am considering changing carriers to get my next Windows Phone.
