And as far as market share goes,iOS remains the king because the market share that android holds is based on a combination of all android OEMS which as far as I know are over 50 compared with iOS where apple is the only OEM.If you were to rate OS superiority by market share then iOS takes it home by far based on that pie chart that flawless posted.

Windows 10 ll be calamitous to linux,ios,android and mac...imagine u buy an app from windows store,u ll use it for tablet,fone,xbox and pc;imagine developing apps for 1.5 billion pcs(a dream for developers),imagine the likes of samsung,lg and co quickly rushing to produce window phones(an unsaturated platform) to compensate their falling sales in oversaturated android after a sudden rise in window world.
Moreover, win 10 ll surely reduce pc to ur pocket.how?the major difference btw pc and phone is heavy tasking.intel recently reduced processor chips to 14nm,meaning its smaller for phone usage.imagine producing a core ì7 processor with improved gpu for phones with 64 bits and ssh storage and 4 and above gb ram.what have u got? A pocket pc...u can virtually do anythin with ur fone.dats was y dey moved lumia 1530 to 2015,intel delayed the new broadwell processor to next year....imagine a 3d fone with cortana and kinect technology.u ll probably use a fone without touching it....win 10,what an evolution.

Windows One or 10 is the end game . . . It will seriously disrupt the market and make the competition cowered with sheer intimidating potential . . .

WPhone/PC/Tabletz/Xbox Consoles all connected seamlessly in an ecosystem with immeasurable possibilities . . .

Already the synergy between my windows phone and my Xbox live account is there . . . Then imagine what Win 10 will offer to humanity grin

Sheer Bliss . . . .cool

Please a quick question guys,

How do I disable the network connection on Lumia 520 as it gulps up airtime whenever the sim is recharged. No data subscription on it though
