WP is a chill phone OS. Some of the best cameras in the mobile arena and it functions well with Windows 7 and 8 operating systems. It has the necessary apps in app store and the risk of malware is pretty darn low. A perfect old person or newbie smartphone OS.

I'm not that far of a zealot yet that I would run the Windows 10 version released today, as it has a pretty bad bug for my phone:

quote:

* About 1% of the time, incoming phone calls may not play a ringing sound
* On phones with 512MB of memory, apps can randomly crash due to an issue with memory management.

the only good thing about the ms nokias is that you can get them for real cheap unlocked and still get pretty decent hardware

so if you're going overseas and need a second phone or something i guess it might be a good idea? idk im stuggling to come up with a use case in which an iphone is not needs suiting

Here Maps are p good, they work well in offline mode and you can download as many maps as you can fit to your sd card. Here transit combines walk navigation with city timetables. Here is also now available for anroid and iDevices I think.
