I am very excited for the release of the next generation of Windows Phone hardware! A lot of the stuff in 8.1 is much needed, here's to good operating systems on cheap hardware!

Wait wait wait hold the phone. XBOX Music is even worse than the prior stock music app? The one which flat out refused to read id3 tags properly and wouldn't display embedded album art? Now it chugs on indexing too? Damnit Microsoft, I was rooting for you so hard on this one too.  That really irks me since much of my day to day is media playback. Admittedly I'll usually only carry around 25-30 albums. Once it's done populating the index things are relatively kosher though, right? I can deal with the wonky tags and lack of art, but if that poo poo chugs switching albums so help me god..

Happy_Misanthrope posted:Yeah I've given it plenty of time (and massive battery drain) to ensure it's indexed my catalog fully and it still chunks when scrolling through albums & artists at times, and has had some particularly hilarious attempts at matching album art from Xbox's music catalog to my own music. Now, be really specific here. Is this because you have a massive music collection on a slow read SD card? Or is it because the interface has somehow just gotten all ppppbbbbbthththththth gently caress you end user.

I don't know if anyone noticed but Newegg has Nokia 521s on memorial day sale for a whopping $59 before tax. Good if you want a device to screw around with or a backup beater phone. Link

You can't turn around 15+ years of horrible corporate environment in a single fiscal quarter.

So what's a good cheap option to try out the current iterations of Windows Phone. I noodled with a 520 a couple years back and enjoyed it. What's much different OS wise? As much as I've enjoyed purestrain Android on a n5x I'm always down for trying something new, especially if it can tie into a toy I've wanted for a while the MS Band 2...
