Forums - Gaming - Windows Phone sucks ass and you should never ever get such a device

Wow. Not surprised. I have been avoiding MS at every possible point for over a decade. I rarely hear anything good about their phones.

I will read the wall of text later, the only reason for not purchasing a windows phone is the lack of some apps and if you have a problem τto be deprived of them... Otherwise, I can't fathom such a resentment for windows phone!

I like the stuff you can do on Android phones more than Apple ones, but I like the layout of Apple phones more. But yeah, I'd never get a Windows phone

I quite like my Windows Phone. I'm not a huge phone user - mostly have one 'just in case' for emergencies when I'm out, as a clock and alarm, to send the odd text, as a back-up MP3 player, and to take pictures with.

The only thing I really dislike about it is the lack of a 'pester' feature. People like myself who aren't checking their phones every 5 minutes could really do with a reminder/pester sound whenever we have new texts and haven't read them after x amount of time. Bizarrely Windows Phone doesn't have such a feature nor, as far as I know, any apps that would add it.

Then join us to the insider program and make your suggestions! lol :) ;)

You shouldn't have invested in a windows phone. If you want a good budget phone, get the third gen Moto G, or Apple's pseudo budget iPhone, the SE.

Even MS isn't wasting more time on Windows mobile, it was completely missing from their 2016 build keynotes.

Not trying to dis the platform, but you can get MS best apps on either Android or iOS. For now, avoid WMP. In the future, the situation may change, and I personally think it will change for the better.

For good budget android phones, check the following smartphones:

Nexus 5x

Moto G third generation, Moto X pure edition.

From what I have seen, lag is the definition of cheap androind phones,  I won't sacrifice the smooth running windows phone due to the lack of some mainstream apps, for a cheap android phone ...

As for iphone SE, 399 euros, essentially, isn't a price of a  budget phone, its a low price for the iphone's own self...

OP sorry but reading that is hilarious
I've used a windows phone before I know the pain.
Myself, since I upgraded from IOS to android a few years ago I can't imagine going back, Iphones are OK and all but just can't match a top range android in hardware or OS.
