Windows Phone 8 review: Str8 up - read the full textWindows Phone 8 is officially in the race. It probably isn’t time to count the horses just yet but Team Windows seems ready to bounce – major OEMs have backed Microsoft up with flagships and mid-range options. Redmond is doing its part with what looks like one of the biggest OS overhauls this year...

Either Google wanted to overshadow MS or not, they just did it. Nothing released by MS today excited me more than the hardware rich budget minded Nexus refreshed line up.

The only MS win is full featured Windows 8 touch PCs, but for what they cost ($1200 for a mid ranger) I can buy a Nexus 4 16 Gb, a Nexus 10 32 Gb, a HSPA+ Nexus 7 32 Gb and even the I'd have 50 bucks of spare cash.

I read the disadvantages section and I'm extremely disappointed. Still no Bluetooth file transfer and you can't pick your own song as a ringtone. No one can beat Android yet!
