WP has not proven anything until now. Worse, its predecessor WM was utter failure. All this talk about WP is better, smoother, etc. anyone can say--even samsung, apple, blackberry will say it. Facts: iOS has loyal users and so does android. These people have used the OS and many have come back to buy newer models. Nokia had loyal customers in Symbian, yet they ditched everyone. They lured buyers to MEEGO only to betray these also. What sort of loyalty are they expecting with this new OS with a poor track record (WM was a failure and name-change to WP just proves Microsoft thinks so too.)!? It's a marriage of two failures trying to prove otherwise.

yep..WP is more efficient, that is because of it's hardware limitations.
If android is a possible malware magnet, i'm sure google knows how to contain it otherwise, they won't take the risk.
WP likes to stay within it's sphere of capabilities, why? to avoid instability, they are marketing WP based on smoothness and efficiency...but that is only achieved in expense of the hardware specs..
get any OS out there, put it in a minimal hardware specs like WP is remove applications that requires more power and processing speed then it will be like WP.
why is WP holds a small market share? why is the percentage still low...increasing but STILL low since it was announced?
of course fanboys would say...Nokia is taking time to polish it,
huh? polish it for how many years? iOS has already released a lot of version updates since the first iPhone, and iOS is well known for it's stability.
and remember... windows..before it was adapted to phones has a lot of bugs and problems before....it took what? you count the years... since windows ME.
Most of those bugs were resolved around windows XP. those periods that what windows went through are the same periods Android is going thru right now. But instead of it in a PC...it's on mobile phones.

Interesting. I guess a very deep list of products and a wide distribution network makes Android king. On the OS side, I still pretty much feel that Android is a "tweakers" OS, you know, for geeks and tinkerers.
The OS is far from perfect, I agree. But, the fact that I have near-infinite customization options means that I can make it my own. That's the beauty and main strength of Android, in my opinion: Customization and options.

Julius, 05 Apr 2012This is the good side of the Internet.
People can burp o... moreGoogle is the one using Reality Distortion Field. Nokia and WP fans knows the cons of Android and we know that those cons outweighs the pros. Android is a malware magnet and it needs powerful hardware just to run the OS semi decent. Android fans don't know what's good since they got so used to the bugs and glitches of Android, they thought they were normal.
WP is miles ahead of Android when it comes to smoothness and efficiency. Android may be powerful but the OS is crude and fundamentally flawed. The Android devs are also frustrated with the fragmentation and it is so bad that they cannot realistically provide the proper support to their customers who are having glitches and bugs with their purchased app.
Go to Google Play and read the comments on some apps. You'll see thousands of comments about how the app doesn't work like it's supposed to. That's Android at its rotten best.
Android is quick to rise and its fall will even be quicker and the WP/Nokia tandem is the Android slayer.
WP and Nokia fans are not blind and are not affected by Android's reality distortion field.

AnonD-41401, 05 Apr 2012Android is over.
Windows is taking over their market share... moreThis is the good side of the Internet.
People can burp opinions that go straight against all facts. You're just burping guesses at will...
Android is dead, even though it grew more than anything else, including Apple with the 4S. And you even say that Windows Phone is taking over and Android is dead?
And here I thought only Cupertino was selling field distortion glasses.

Windows is taking over their market share,
Lumia series will force Samsung to make the galaxy S3 windows OS compatible or lose market share to Nokia.
Just need more people that can buy Lumina and prove Windows is what the public need. Nokia blog sites are saying this to help out as well. If people here can buy 2 Lumia phones each, it will help prove it's more popular

Android is going to the masses with phones like Samsung galaxy y. But iOS devices are not coming down from their expensive price range.
