I have owned both iPhones and android phones. This is by far the best experience with a smart phone to date. Once you have owned an iPhone then you have owned every moble apple product cause they are all the same. Android has to much malware, and apps would always be a hit or miss like with my atrix could not view YouTube without hard locking the phone, had to remove battery to reset. That's was with the app or browser.

The apps that I have used on this phone have been far superior then ios or Droid versions. If there is an app that you want that's not in the Microsoft ecosystem then there is probably one that fuctions the same but with a different name. I know the verge review bashes the lack of apps but really there is over 120k apps. IOS has 500k but that just means you 30,000 calender apps or 40,000 alarm clock apps 99.8% of apps will never get downloads expect by the developers.

So great phone, great operating system, great apps. Really do not agree with theverge on this review.
