2010 ~ 2014 was Golden years for Microsoft

3.Poor windows market (in past not present day)
2.No file manager
1.bad interface especially for android users
0.Removed Nokia's brand on top bottom

Time is dead for Microsoft for sure

Its because worldwide market never trust Windows mobile OS. Windows mobile has hybrid ability from Android (Open Source) + iOS (Optimization) Even Lumia 520 can play heavy games as well like iOS and you can download anything as you want from browser like Android.

AnonD-656673, 18 Jul 2017The other day some guy telling me that "professionals" use WP because "features" and "security".I was always told professionals largely use LinkedIn for networking (a company which now belongs to Microsoft). Guess what, LinkedIn (Microsoft really) just announced they would no longer support WP... so much for that "professionals" OS theory.

Microsoft only have themselves to blame, they were onto a winner, things looked good, then they got greedy. If they hadn't bought Nokia then the other manufacturers wouldn't have pulled out, Nokia wouldn't have started producing **** and WP would still be very competitive. Hell the 2012 Lumia 920 is still one of the most feature rich phones ever made, it was only the other year that Samsung caught up and Apple are still years behind.

How much longer will we still hear about Windows Phone? Also when its share drops to 0.01%. And the 0.001%? All the way down to Windows Phone selling 1 device?

Scorpions , 18 Jul 2017You can't continue your life with Windows Phone. That's logical, Microsoft doesn't invest in Windows 10 mobile at the moment and it's their intention to let it fade away. Microsoft is preparing yet another something new for mobile devices. First WP and Windows 10 mobile must be forgotten by the general public before coming up with another OS for mobile devices. Read mobile devices, not only smartphones. Check on windowscentral.com. How long it takes I have no idea but I am still using my Lumia 930 as long as possible.
