God Yes.
I have been saying this for like a year now..Many people claim that Windows Phone is dead...and that may be true. Even Paul Thurrott claims it'll go away mid-2016.
Maybe.
But I choose to be a bit optimistic and I am hoping Microsoft is doing the one thing I hoped it always would do and start adopting an apple Mentality.
I've said for the last year or so, Microsoft has been diluting it's lumia brand and weakening it is lumia brand in favor of trying to not step on any toes with the other OEMs in hopes they will do something worthwhile.
It's now mid-2015 and all we've seen in the last year or so, is the HTC One M8 windows...an Android rehash that is woefully irrelevant...even for a windows phone.
You know it is bad when people keep saying we haven't seen a real flagship since the Lumia 930, despite the fact the HTC One m8 windows is not even a year old yet[/B
Please stop relying on these OEMs who really do nothing for this platform and I hope with this new apple method of lessening the amount of windows phone released, Microsoft is going to bring out their best....instead of just their good enough.
These OEMs are not going to help you sell your product Microsoft...they really haven't for 5 years...and you have some momentum.
I am not saying drop the OEMs(I wouldn't mind....they are irrelevant) but stop relying on them and bring your best.
You flooded the market like Android with Windows Phone 8.1 now pull an Apple and bring out the premium for Windows 10 and stop waiting on these OEMs to help you.
Personally, i'd love to see most of the OEMs done away with...and leave us with Blu phones and Lumias.
