If Apple goes down, most if its uninitialized/non-setup phones will turn into actual bricks.
At least with Android you can skip all the setup requirements and easily sideload APKs.

This is why it's wise to avoid Microsoft products. They come up with great ideas with so much potential and then discontinue and abandon the products.

WP wasn't a disaster, W10M and Google themselves ruined what could have been a big competitor. Only got the 925 for a specific reason, it was the cheapest phone I could find with 1080p recording and OIS.
