I have found it very convenient to sync data between windows 10 and my current phone platform (Windows 10 Mobile Insider build).This will be a platform to reckon with hoping all goes as planned.
bad move . and you canNOT compare windoes ecosystem and android ecosystem.thats why android is number one mobile platform
We are all have had bad moves in life. Lumia + Windows is not one of the bad moves for me.
I think it depends with how you use your phone.I got the Lumia 730 Dual Sim and frankly speaking the build quality is way above what i could have on Android( and some Lumia have Carl Zeiss optics for some crisp photos as you can see below ,that even flagships on other platforms fail to deliver).I also hate bloatware which is the order of the day in Android and a standard user has no way to uninstall them.Luckily on windows you can uninstall ANY APP and maintain a lean phone .Regarding the apps.I only use the browser ,Emails,Microsoft Office Suite + onenote,whatsapp and Here Maps (offline),Onedrive 40GB ,Skype,Remote Desktop.
All this and i manage to have 2 days from full charge to 10 %.
* Windows will update phones which are more than one year old since official release date.The same cannot be said on Android with a big number still stuck on Android 4.x while the current version 6 (fragmentation).
Fact:The biggest power bank market is for Android users. Thats why even manufacturers will sell you a phone with a bundled power bank.its that bad.
I hope this does not degenerate to Windows Mobile vs iSheep and Fandroid war as it has been experienced elsewhere.We all have unique platform needs only that i find Windows mobile best suited for my day to day activities.
Long live Windows mobile.
Some photos i have captured using the phone.
