I love the OS. Best OS I have used by far, and I've used them ALL. Most people have not been happy with the batterey life, however, at low charge you still have plenty of juice left!
Nice built phone, not the most advanced, but unlike Android it does not ned impressive computing prowess to have a smooth end user experience.
This is just a VERY good phone for all users. Not as customizable as Android, not as boring as iOS. Stable and high quality apps vs Android.
People complaining about apps... seriously? They pretty much have everything one needs.
...it was more customizable. Your options are limited, compared to a Blackberry. It has very restrictive file management. For instance, my sister emailed me a video to my phone email, and I was unable to download it to the phone. I understand iphone has similar restrictions. This is where BB is superior.
The pluses are the seamless integration with hotmail, but outlook costs extra with a live365 subscription, and live mesh use requires another paid sharepoint subscription. Knowing what I know now, I would have waited for the blackberry touch.
The display is terrific and I have gotten use to the 'tiles' and like them very much - allows me to get to what I am interested in pronto and let's me see quickly if I have any waiting items - text, vmails or emails. When traveling and needing to keep a few contacts readily at hand pinning them to the home screen is very, very useful!
I was put off by missing some of the minor features in my old phone programs/interface - weekly view of calendar and being able to directly sync it with my computer. However, after learning the interface and the ability to surf the web very much faster than my old phone I like it more each day. The IE is very fast and easy to use.The voice activated search function is terrific! The phone calling quality is great - I have not had any dropped calls since I bought the phone 3 months ago and the voice quality is very clear and life like. I mostly use my phone for calls, calendar and search all which work well but I still miss the 'weekly view' of calendar - but not so much anymore. The camera is good. I use it instead of my 'point an shoot' and except for poor lighting conditions there is no real difference in picture quality. The built in flash works well for subjects within 10-15ft in low lighting.
The battery life certainly could be longer but it goes all day without a recharge and with light usage I go 2 -3 days without charging it.
The OS has been flawless!
