    WP8 OS is a disaster. Microsoft will completely give up soon.

        [deleted post]It's tech site and we are talking logic here. I know, you simply can't deny the truthful facts stated about Windows phone 8 OS in my comment. No need to show your hatred towards my factful comment about WP8 OS if you can't digest the truth.

              WP8 will be my next phone. No more TouchWiz bloat, benchmark cheating, and slow performance from Samdroid. (Also no more rabid Android fanatics to have to deal with). WP8, here I come!!

Its filled with apps, some 10% internal memory is pending. 16gb sd card full. Whatever u told, i ve nt faced it in this phone which is a 2010 model, running gingerbread nor in my s3. And as far as m concerned the "lag" will nt be seconds..it ll be of micro seconds if it really does. From day 1 m happy with Android and i love it. I ve used iphone but its too restricted and wp, god! Couldnt use it fr a day atleast. Those boring tiles just sucks!

It's a pathetic OS ever created.

                            Frankly speaking; I'm supposed to be happy that a "GDR3" "update" will give 3 rows??? When i can decide how many rows u want on my galaxy mega 6.3, and I'm also supposed to be glad cos the"update" works for "phablets"?? The only way Microsoft can succeed in phone business is if they make their software (wp) commercially available for people to install on any phone they want. But trying to come in on the hardware/phone side is suicide ( and they seem to have taken Nokia down that Lane with them).

                              Still a half baked OS with no native video call support, no forward option in IE on WP8, no USSD codes allowed, no true multitasking, no email attachments allowed other than pictures, no file manager, no universal audio control center, no saving of downloaded files, nothing special. This is even worst than a feature phone OS. Microsoft isn't serious about WP8 OS. Wake me up when Microsoft will create a complete OS.
