For all the features and apps missing on WP, I'd rather pay that extra (even if their are good cheap Android phones). I've had a S3 for 2~3 years, best phone I've ever owned with great features, latest apps, money well spent. I don't want to spend and regret 150$ on a WP.

Also your argument does not even make sense in this case as I was talking about OS and hardware features. So the answer to my question (which was "What can your phone do that a Galaxy S5 cant do?") is: Nothing! Thx

still no call-recording, no local PC syncing (without commercial software/bodge), no file-manager.
Can you finally connect to Adhoc wifi-networks?

And by the way in my opinion android is still in control and it is still the OS that comes with the least headaches (my phones are Samsung Galaxy S IV mini and Nokia Lumia 520) but that doesn't mean that windows phone can't be a great alternative OS I mean let us face the reality that clearly suggests that a lot of people like to have 2 different smartphone types so get android and WP instead of Android and iOS, and leave android for playing and socializing and WP for working.

For everyone on gsm arena asphalt 8,my country 2020,asphalt 7, all work lag free on all wp 8 devices i own the Nokia Lumia 520 it is not with out its flaws but yes it can run these games without any issues.
now for the love of god start buying the Lumia 525 instead of the 520 because the small difference of 1GB RAM VS 512GB RAM is more than enough to give you a flawless lag free WP 8 (and 8.1) experience .

Despite everything like smoothness, fluidity and shorter app loading time, the WOS is hell of a boring operating system. this is the main reason this OS is not gonna be a hit like iOS or android. never ever might be.

Aerize Explorer is a good free file manager for WP 8.1. pocket file manager is good too. the final version will include a file picker and animated lockscreen
