Explain why are you not using Windows phones
>>
I might be gay, but I don't want to be anally fucked by my phone.
>>
I've been using Android phones for the last 5 years or so. I'm familiar with the operating system and the phones do pretty much everything I need them to do, why should I switch if I'm happy with what I have? Can I even get an Interactive Brokers or CNB Bank app on Windows phones?

No snapchat.

In the porn business, that's how most girls want to communicate.

They didn't break into the market early enough to establish dominance.
>>
>>52202106
Or rather, they moved in TOO early, just like with Tablets so by the time they relaunched with a modern OS, everyone still had the bad taste of winmo6/wince in their mouths.

These are current reviews for the Netflix app.

The big apps in the app store are outdated and flat out do not work properly, it is also flooded with fake and misleading apps that Microsoft encourages to fudge numbers and pretend that they have developers.

Windows is dying.

Because I bought an android phone recently and I like it more than my Lumia 630.
Windows phones are especially great for the price, but they lack apps, user freedom and customizability. A good music player for example. There are some apps I will miss though, like myTube and its nice developer.

Because the MS CEO said they're "unsustainable" and they lost almost 50% of their marketshare the last 12 months.

He even practically says he doesn't think phones are important, good luck getting updates or support from anyone for apps.
>>
I don't hate myself.

>>52200144
That one guy shat on it in his video.

I so wish it was good. I could only switch phones next year anyways. Perhaps then it will be good.

>- It's not slow (lying)
My OPO is easily one of fastest phones around with CM
>- Not all the roms are by indians, just like 99.999%
CM in Bacon is production quality and it's mostly developed by cyanogen.inc in US
>- no <insert really obscure bank here> app
They work for me, also Xposed helps
>- mug material design
Best design around desu senpai

Same reason why I don't use Linux. No apps.

>>52203328
>Point 1
Any phone around allows you to answer calls using the hardware keys, either menu or volume keys.
My phone and any other relevant phone blocks itself if the proximity sensor detects the phone is inside a pocket.

>Point 2
Same with point one, jesus do you ever took at look to accessibility settings? how do you think blind people use phones? they guess where to slide? jesus.

>Point 3
>Muh manlet hands
Get a smaller phone you loser.
>>
because last time i used a windows mobile os my experience was so bad i'll never give it another chance. twice actually. motoQ and followed that gem up with a samsung blackjack. two of the worst phones i've ever had.

I had a winphone, thought it was quite solid, never had any problems with it, even got one year office subscription and onedrive 1tb storage.
Best thing though was the default YouTube 'app' switch off the screen and it will still play.
Worst thing was the lack of well known apps.
>>
>>52200144
Even Android doesn't have enough rice for me. WP? Pure jail.

>>52200144

I don't hate myself.
>>
>>52200144
It's bad enough that I have to use Windows on the desktop.
I'd rather avoid Microshit products as much as possible.
