As a Windows Phone user, it's actually extremely frustrating when I as a customer walk in and try to upgrade my phone to another windows phone. They're ALWAYS trying to talk me into a Samsung or an iPhone even after I ask specifically for a WP. Some twerp did the same thing to my parents just last month and tricked them into buying two Samsung phones when they asked for WPs. My parents didn't realize it until they got home (not particularly computer literate).

But anyways, some salespeople can be just as annoying as customers sometimes. There are sheep who only want to buy samsung/apple and there are sheep who only sell samsung/apple.


Having used Symbian, Android, IOS, WP and Java devices (and currently have all but WP), I really must say that it's no wonder if they try to talk you into Android. WP does have great menu interface, but otherwise it's so much behind.

Fair enough, I know WP is a little behind the curve, but I really like the phones and the community. I've been with it since the WP 7 days and I'm looking forward to Windows 10 Mobile. I'm pretty informed as far as what I want when I walk into one of those stores, so it's a pain when I want a specific thing and they talk down my preference and I have to defend it.  It's basically why I buy phones unlocked and never from the carriers anymore. Much less headache.
