    I am completely against windows because an Android phone is much better then it in terms of all the points you have listed in your post according to me. Even the android phones provide with a good camera, processor, applications and games. The prices also suit the pocket and are worth it.

        Right said Moses, years of research and development cannot be competed directly with a newly introduced one.
        Forget not to mention the fact that Windows 8 for mobile phones are also providing the same set of features as an Android phone do.
        Windows is learning to grow fast and verdict can be justified with the fact that new Windows phones are now allowing customization to a considerable extent.
        From a security point of view, after blackberries, Windows for mobile is supposed to be one of the most secure operating system, which Android is definitely not one.
        So, we can actually conclude that evolution does take time however, in the end all really matters is if it is capable of providing the feature set to its users or not.

          Thats right, I think the overall thing is that Bill Gates investment on new research on software development is religiously utilized, thanks for sharing your view Joes.

    I am using Sony Xperia arc S currently which is an android phone and it is an amazing cellular device. The functions, the processor, and all the other features are a treat to use. Windows phones are nowhere in comparison with android phones, android is far better.
