Yeah, I stuck with Windows Phone very nearly to the end, but the lack of apps just made it totally unsustainable for anyone with any kind of social life that extended beyond SMS and email.
@Neuromancer @darkkite Some of the Lumia Phones with Windows Phone 8 were really nice.
And even the Lumia 530 was surprisingly good for an entry-level phone.
This is why I can't get on board with the current state of Linux phones. Sure I'd love a niche phone OS and would love to not be tied to Google OR Apple. But I also want to be an average person who uses normal people apps and can do my banking on my phone and play a hot new mobile game or whatever.
