Still not tried W10 on my Lumia 925 yet. Think I'll wait for prices to come down a bit while i'm on a £12 contract though. It does look a really good phone though!

I have temporarily gone back to WIndows 8.1 and there's so much I'm missing about Windows 10!

This is the best deal by far that I can find for this phone on contract unless someone has anything else...

I know this isn't an issue with WP, but more with app developers, but there are still a number of key apps missing from the windows store. Opening up the SDK and making it easier for developers to port android or iOS variants of their apps to WP(thus saving time/money developing apps for a minority market share) doesn't seem to have helped so far. It's the only thing keeping me from making the move to WP to be honest.

great deal, heated.

Yeah I understand that completely, fortunately all the apps I use are on Windows Phone or have great 3rd party alternatives, if there's anything I want to use that isn't on WP (which is very little) I use my android tablet. My girlfriend on the other hand loves the WP OS but is a heavy app user so I've always advised against it. If they would have kept Astoria it would have been amazing, the android apps worked quite well on a very early test platform, unfortunately it appears to have been scrapped entirely :disappointed:

Yeah, some of the 3rd party offerings have been good from what I have seen, granted that was a while ago. Like yourself, the bulk of what I do at home, is on an android tablet, but when away from home and reliant on my phone, the only ones that I would miss are the social media app with the likes of snapchat(for which there was a great third party offering until they lost user details and the snapchat developers shut them down!), the iplayer and youtube apps still get slammed, the latter obviously has great third party offerings.

I am more excited about Continuum. I have a laptop but is very rarely used. The tablet doing the bulk of my work. But I know the minute I get rid of my laptop, I will need it. Continuum would bridge that gap for me. Just plug in to a cheap monitor, utilise a keyboard and mouse I already have and you have full PC functionality.

They are certainly trying to attract developers now - this was announced yesterday. Was quite impressive, the guy used a mac to develop an android app using Visual Studio (Microsoft).

Losing 6snap was a huge kick in teeth for WP, I had a few friends get rid of their iPhones for WP after using mine, about a month after 6snap gets shutdown and they all desperately want their iPhones back just for snapchat. Luckily my close friends are like me and don't use social media as much as others so we all stick with WP. It's a shame that the app selection is so lackluster on WP, it really is a great OS and works smooth on even low ends phone so the barrier of entry is relatively low if you want to test the waters, but peoples favourite apps not being there puts them straight off the idea and they can't be blamed as its a very legitimate reason.

Yeah continuum is exciting, the ability to have your phone double up as a portable workstation is amazing!
