Got a Surface Pro 4 and love it to be honest. Not sure how it translates to a phone. Probably doesn't.

Not surprising really, im about ready to take a hammer to my Lumia 535. It was mostly fine on Windows mobile 8.1

SP3 and 4 are products they got right. I prefer my SP3 with W8.1. I tried it with W10 early on and did not like it. As for the phone, it's one failure after another for MS. They keep rebooting their mobile OS, leaving the users and developers behind. I would not hold my breath about the Surface phone.
The transition from WP7 to WP8 dropped a lot of compatibility, but WP8 support the universal apps, as does W10M. And I'm still running plenty of WP8 apps on my 930. So they didn't leave developers behind .... they didn't really have many in the first place. I have genuinely found W10 to be a major improvement over W8.1 on the desktop and tablet - a more consistent, fluid interface. And in the case of mobile, it really isn't that different from WP8.1 (apart from being a little slower). |

"rebooting"? Really, you know thats a load of tosh.

And in the case of mobile, it really isn't that different from WP8.1 (apart from being a little slower). As for daily use of W10M, I find it responsive enough, but I find it degenerates over time. Let's say I come back home and the phone refuses to connect to Wi-Fi, my Kindle can use it, my tablets can use it. If I play a game, the phone heats up and stops reacting to touch, that never happened before, little things don't work. It seemed better after Anniversary update, then they did the cumulative update of it and now it has new cool bugs. That touch thing is one of them. |
