I'm really considering it because Windows phones have a much quicker upgrade cycle. Android devices biggest weakness is the fact that different skins/UIs are created by the manufacturers so often OS updates come at a much later time for some devices.

Honestly I wish OS updates came like app updates. What is attracting me to WP10 is the unification across form factor. If it is as good as Apple's I would really consider a switch.

If all the features being touted for windows phone 10 actually come to being, there is no way I am not switching, the centralization factor that is being speculated on is going to make my life so much easier, microsoft may even take advantage of this and up the prices on their flagships.

100% agree and that's the main reason I'm being drawn to WP10. Microsoft has done some phenomenal changes to the OS. I'm really looking forward to it and will replace my Nexus 5 sometime in late 2016.

Yea a flagship is a flagship, if you cannot support your flagship devices, what then is to expect for your mid-range and low-end devices?

Gionee records millions and millions of sale not just in its brand but via OEM service, remittance, services offered to other companies. I think these are reasons Hionee not taking its users serious. After I bought the Gionee Elite 3 and sold it I promise never to get a gionee device till issues are addressed

Exactly what my problem with them is. they abandon their devices immediately after they get their sales quota and it is typically unfair to the consumers, imagine buying the s5.5 at the then retail price and then needing to change phones to get an upgrade just like tecno
