"I wanted to kill you, go to your funeral, and anyone who showed up to mourn you, I wanted to kill them too."
windows phone 10 coming along as nicely as desktop 10

quote:

For example, in the couple of minutes that I played around with the 5.2-inch device, two apps crashed and dumped me back to the Start screen. I tried out the camera – not so much to test the quality, but the speed of the app – and I was appalled at how slowly the device processed the images to present them to be viewed in pixel-perfect glory. 4-5 seconds per picture of staring at “adding the finishing touches...” before your photo is ready to view properly is not an impressive imaging experience.

yeah. It's to add a gee whiz factor to their presentations that their core products don't have, I get that.

But is there a purely technical barrier here that they can't pass? or just that they can't be bothered?

I used one of those samsung VR headsets where you stick a phablet in it. the graphics were simple but it was still very immersive and the FOV was wide.
