dejavume: Stop spewing trash dude @ the bolded. I understand the platform being your choice but don't go thinking that it's because others who don't like it do so because it is hard to figure out. Windows has the simplest ui after iOS, absolutely nothing complex there. The only complex thing there is silly pursuit of trying to be different and hence messing up a lot of usability features. Take for instance these following issues 1. you can't edit a number before dialing. Lets say you've dialed a wrong number and discovered that it was wrong. You can't edit it from the call log and have to type it all afresh before dialing. This is a feature even Nokia "java" phones have before the days of smartphone. 2. You can't select a number to text from a contact that has multiple entries. Lets say you have a contact with multiple numbers. You can open the contact and select which one to call. But you can't do the same for text. The silly phone will show you a text option which when you click will select the first number on the list and take you to the messaging app for text. Another thing I enjoyed since the days of my Nokia N70. 3. Jumbled call log. The windows call log is very laughable. It finds it hard to sort the call logs especially if you are the type that saves multiple entries to one contact as opposed to having contacts like Henry MTN, Henry Etisalat, Henry 2, etc. When you have those multiple numbers call you different occasions, the call logs separates them and make it look jumbled. You will now be having multiple call log entries for Henry and only when you check the details will you find out that it is from the different numbers that Henry uses. In Android/IOS/Blackberry, no matter how many multiple entries a contact has, the call log groups calls from that contact into one entry with the latest log on top. When you now go into details, you will then see a breakdown of the individual numbers by log and type (called in/out or missed). 4. Attaching files. How hard can it be to attach a simple file to your email? Try doing that on Winblows phone and you will feel like crying. Imagine typing that very long email on your phone and getting to the end, you want to attach a file (picture/document/video/etc) to it. You click on the attach icon and lo and behold, the silly phone automatically assumes that you are trying to send a picture and takes you straight to the photos app with no other option of going anywhere else. That is quite horrendous. The first time that happened to me, I felt like smashing the phone. The only alternative left is to first of all, go to the file (pic/document/video/music/etc), open it and then share it thru the email account. Only then will you be able to attach the file. And I'm saying this occurs with the default and inbuilt email app that comes with the phone. 5. Inability to select default apps. Even on the Windows OS for PC, you can select the default app for opening a type of file if you have multiple apps that can handle it. For instance, you have two web browsers installed and you click on a weblink, a popup menu will show asking you to select the app you want to use to open the link and you can also select the default app for such in the same popup menu. Windows on PC has this feature, Android has it too. Why on earth it wasn't carried over to Windows phone is hard to comprehend. Trying that on windows phone opens up internet explorer straight up for you. I can go on and on but I am busy at the moment. So, please never you tell me that Windows phone is too complex or hard to operate for Nigerians that's why we stay away from it. 2 Likes |

Greatfes17: Dude, from what you wrote, I can get one thing very clearly. You have never seen an android phone in your life. For you to say that typing in android is hell is a straight pointer to that. LMAO 2 Likes |

pacino26: Dude, Sendo X was symbian and not windows. And the only android you can get on that phone to work was froyo 2.2. |

pacino26: Seriously, back then windows mobile was horrible and still faced useability issues. I once remembered someone asking me to help him configure the gprs settings on his Palm Treo and it was hell. In the end, why use it when there were great smartphones running symbian like the Nokia 6600, N Series and Communicator series. Sony Ericsson P-series (P800, P900, P990, etc). |

henryskywalker2003: Well, I won't be too stupid to try picking up an arguement with you. Probably, you may be my class that uses tecno phone and yet boast of using smart phones. Furthermore, I will not try giving you a single reason that I use Android, but maybe one day, try using your android as notebook(joter). work with large text files and feel what I've been through. CHEERS!!! |
Re: 5 Reasons Windows Phone Is Better Than Android by pacino26(m): 5:43am On Jun 11, 2015 |
henryskywalker2003: That same 'hell' then is yet to change. Generally Windows phone demand a little extra to let you utilize it fully. Till that people still find it difficult with Windows 8 you know. |
Re: 5 Reasons Windows Phone Is Better Than Android by henryskywalker2003(m): 11:29pm On Jun 11, 2015 |
Greatfes17: Hahahahaa..... Sorry matey.... Not your class. Don't do MTK phones, not even Sony and HTC MTK phones not to talk of Tecno. |

pacino26: And that is why it isn't ready for prime time. Technology is meant to make things easier. To take away or solve a problem. But when it introduces an additional problem that wasn't in the picture before, then that technology is a step backward. |
Re: 5 Reasons Windows Phone Is Better Than Android by Greatfes17: 1:00pm On Jun 12, 2015 |
henryskywalker2003:Nice one. With your class of phone(s), you can't prove I don't use Android right? |
Re: 5 Reasons Windows Phone Is Better Than Android by henryskywalker2003(m): 10:31pm On Jun 13, 2015 |
Greatfes17: Dude, you've already proved it to us yourself when you made ur first comment about typing being hell on Android. In case you don't know, Android platform debuted the swipe to type thingy that other platforms are now emulating today. |

Re: 5 Reasons Windows Phone Is Better Than Android by henryskywalker2003(m): 12:19am On Jun 15, 2015 |
runzlord: 1. You're quite wrong in your assertion that I'm taking on every windows fan. I'm only taking on those that say false or wrong things about Windows and Android. 2. Your points have been sufficiently answered by at least 2 persons here so no need to add to it. 3. If you still want an answer from me about the points you made, I can gladly do that as long as you also give an answer to those that I pointed out in an earlier post. And trust me when I say this, you post is full of assumptions with few facts or links to support your claims. Let me know if you are up to it. Have a great week. |
