I have a confession: I’m the proud owner of an iPhone 6. In fact, it’s now my full-time device. After using Windows Phone on and off since its introduction in 2010, I’ve grown frustrated enough to give up and switch back to iOS fully.
I’m the resident Microsoft expert here at The Verge, and for years I’ve switched between Android, iOS, and Windows Phone to check out new apps and how each platform is progressing, but it’s now clear Windows Phone is being left behind. I’m not alone: Ed Bott, a fellow technology writer, has also given up on Windows Phone, and Microsoft has left its loyal customers frustrated by focusing on iOS and Android. Microsoft may have made some significant changes to Windows Phone this year with the 8.1 update, but like the many previous versions and updates I’m still left waiting for more. I’m through waiting.
I was a loyal Windows Phone user from day one – bought a 7.x device on launch day, and an 8.x device on launch day – but it’s clear to just about everyone by now that the platform has failed. I doubt there is much of a future for Windows Phone as a separate entity. Windows-proper on PCs will continue to do well, but Windows on phones and tablets is starting to look more and more dire by the day.
With the Nokia purchase, Windows on phones/tablets may well be Microsoft’s biggest financial blunder in its history.
I was just saying the same thing today, I used to be the biggest fan / supporter of windows phone and surface but like the article states it’s looking dire.
The app situation still hasn’t improved, ok some names are in there but the quality of the apps is poor, the difference between Evernote on iOS and android against windows phone is night and day.
The common theme from Microsoft is wait for the next version, bear with us. Bear with us until update 7.5. Bear with us for 8.0, 8.1 8.1 update 1 etc.. now it’s wait for windows phone 10.
It’s a shame as I think the OS performance is great as is the UI/UX. They are well made phones with some great features, I don’t know if the influx of cheapo phones is enough to help them either, why bother with a lot of the nokias when we have outstanding phones in the moto e and g.
Fingers crossed that I’m wrong but looking at the market share declines around the world month in month out for windows phone it’s looking grim
Decline? Windows phone market share has been increasing as it eats what is left of the Blackberry market. ๐
It went from 1% to 4%.

Please, someone can explain me why choose wp8 over ios / android / bb10 / jolla?
Yeah, I know, the ui is cute, but it’s like choosing a car because the horn makes a nice noise???
Apps? No, all above is better, if you consider android vm on jolla and bb.
Integration? Ios
Choice of device? Android
“openness”? Disregard I suck cock lol.
Effectiveness of ui? Maemo/meego/jolla
Maps? Here is available on every platform / osmand/waze / ios plan/ gmaps
Office? Android and ios (and others too, android vm)
Because nokia? Seriously, nokia fanboys KNOWS that lumia are not “that” reliable compared too old one. And too bad, nokia care is shit.
Effectiveness of the os? Bb10 and jolla.
Snowden compatible? Jolla
I dunno lol….
I picked a Windows Phone because at the time on T-Mobile it was either a Lumia 925, Samsung S4, iPhone 5S, LG model, or BB10 at the time. I had 3 Samsungs including an S3 before and I was tired of the sluggish OS, weird touch-wiz interface, things crashing and not being able to take and send a picture while I was talking on the phone. I had problems with each of my Samsungs hardware wise also and I was tired of it. I almost went with the LG, but after playing with it I was not excited and didn’t like the way it was constructed and laid out. The iPhone 5s was out for me at the time because the screen was small and I was not into the locked nature of it, and the bad battery life. BB10 was a nice unit, but it just came out and was so new I didn’t know if it was even viable. I saw the screen on the 925, the camera specs, and played with the email app on it, played with some of the other apps like Office (which was not on Samsung or iPhone yet),saw it’s responsiveness and went with it. The only downfall on the 925 is lack of SD memory slot, which caused me to stream more than I used to with my S3. Wireless charging was a big plus for me that I still use daily and I am not sure why this is not more popular. It should be a standard feature in every phone model. Apple will probably introduce it in the future and it will then be a big thing, like they invented it LOL. Like Apple Pay vs Google Wallet or Microsoft Wallet with NFC. As for the other platforms you mentioned, these are not easily available to T-Mobile customers in the US, and I don’t see the point of running Jolla just so I can run Android in emulation…is Google Play even part of this platform? Jolla is not readily available to US customers, although I guess you can obtain anything if you wanted to. Also, buying the phone from the carrier ensures that features like Wifi-calling are available and working.

its really amazing what android has been able to do. IMHO its not the best technology but they just avoided making the same mistakes apple (control freaks) and microsoft (protect the desktop) made. they’re still in a good position since there’s a lot of room for improvement yet to be made. And google has another rising star in chromeos. Interesting how they seemed to accidentally have stumbled into becoming a major platform player.
It’s not that amazing. For many years Android was the only game in town besides iOS. The only capable phone OS that was available for no cost that you could build a modern device from.
No, as I recall, Android had several open competitors (though I guess we can debate “capable” ;-).
Meego was the most elegant by far, I think, with strong backing from the Linux Foundation and Intel. Unfortunately, Nokia took too long to get the first product to market, then imploded under the weight of a $1B check from Microsoft.
Meego promptly had two fraternal twins, Jolla (which “will become” open and is slowly growing) and Tizen (the Linux Foundation fav that has been imminent from Samsung for a few years and counting), neither of which has the polish or backing that Meego originally enjoyed IMHO.
webOS preceded Meego as the original iOS competitor, and was quite elegant, but Palm insisted on shipping it on badly under-powered hardware and failed to thrive. HP released the source, but rather late in the game, and it didn’t garner enough broader interest to capture a market niche in phones. Next to Meego, I miss webOS the most.
FirefoxOS was announced at the right time but shipped late in the game, and has since kept laser focus on the extreme low end of the market. Its claim to fame isn’t polish or app library, but zealous openness. I’m a fan and wish it well.
Ubuntu, like Tizen, has been imminent for years. I still like it in concept, and still use their neglected (IMHO) desktop OS, but after an endless stream of postponed product launches, fatigue sets in.
Android had the advantage of an early start and a cash-rich non-competing patron that could keep plugging through the years with a large group of phone manufacturers on an endless variety of hardware. It won the bulk of the market on sheer doggedness by being “good enough” while avoiding the missteps of its many competitors – but it did (and still does) have open competitors.
And of course WM 5 (and 6) came before Jolla, webOS, Firefox and Ubuntu as well as iOS and Android.
For some reason the release of 7.x and the name change from Mobile to Phone seems to have left many with the impression that it was their fist phone OS.
Perhaps for some. I remember it well, but omitted it because we were discussing phone OSes “that were available for no cost”, and I understood Windows Mobile to have had pretty hefty licensing fees. And as you mention, it wasn’t really among the iPhone competitors (as the OP referred to “modern devices”) we were discussing, with its heyday firmly in the previous generation.
It effectively was a completely different OS, as it was totally incompatible…
Locked nature of iphone? But at least it can be jailbroken, wp is more closed than iphone, so…
About the viability of bb10, as nokia the only provider of wp, and burning money like the wtc in 9/11, you can’t say it was more future proof.
With jolla, running android app is a band aid, even if there is no official application, you are not left out in the cold like wp, were if their is no app, even a unofficial, you can’t run android app.
For google store, it can run on jolla.
bob_bipbip,
It raises an interesting conundrum. Some people are ok with device restrictions as long as they can evade them. But I would never be comfortable endorsing a solution that depends on the presence of manufacturer vulnerabilities. It’s because of OS vulnerabilities that users get to take advantage of jailbreaking. Should one really go with a device who’s manufacturer is trying to lock him out? That feels hypocritical to me.
If you really want unlocked devices I think you should vote with your feet and support those who offer it explicitly. Otherwise genuinely open technology will become marginalized as companies learn that consumers don’t shun them for selling restricted hardware and will buy them regardless.
Edited 2014-12-12 17:21 UTC
I’m not saying that it were right or wrong, but only speaking about fact. Saying that wp is more open than iphone is just wrong. Both are totally closed, with iphone being less close than wp.
As I’ve already stated, if someone wants a “truly open” platform, just pick android or jolla
Over Jolla? Because whatever problems with apps that WP has, Jolla has even more of. That, and Jolla doesn’t really have up-to-date hardware.
Then again, I’m not a WP user. I have a jolla phone that I like it, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who isn’t some sort of enthusiast. It’s not a phone for someone who just wants to have a modern phone that can effortlessly do everything the others can.
Yeah, like wp can run on the latest snapdragon805 or the newest tegra. Or more, on x86…..
“wp don’t need x amount of ram, or x core to run properly” was always the moto of wpfanboy to defend themselves about poor hardware support. That’s why nokia takes so long to develop a “lumia pureview”…
I already know that jolla is not for average Joe, but neither wp, where Joe will not be able to have the easy of use than iphone, or the latest trendy app on android…. But at least, jolla have some advantages, like, well, every platform that still alive, meanwhile, wp have none….
To me this is sad news. I love my Lumia 635 but I also wish there was a higher end, unlocked model I could get. I don’t like being depended on my carrier but the only way off and still have a quality phone is to get a Nexus or an iPhone it seems. Heck, I’m on T-Mobile and the 635 is the best they’ve got.
I’ve seriously considered jumping ship a couple of times but a good Android or iPhone is expensive and really, at the end of the day, I LIKE my Windows Phone. I enjoy using it, I like its interface, I like that it’s “cheap” models are actually really good phones. As for apps, there are a few that I miss but, for what I use my phone for, I’ve got apps that fill my needs.
Really it seems that while Microsoft isn’t giving me a really good reason to stay, nobody else is giving me a really good reason to leave. So, I’m staying.
No, the HTC One M9 for Windows is currently the best speced WP on T-Mobile. This unit has problems. The M9 is supposed to be on the way also, but these are not Lumias. Lumias are great because they tend to have good battery life, good cameras, decent screens and performance, dedicated camera button and the capacitive buttons on the bottom. They have the best layed out interface over other models.
Even Microsoft seems to have stated that, since they seem to be killing off the Windows Phone Brand in favour of integration with Windows 10.
Well, clearly what they’re doing now isn’t working, so I think this is about the only chance they have. Giving devs tools to write a single app that runs on desktop, phone, tablet, and maybe console as well seems like a good idea to me.
Granted, people will shutter at the thought of running tablet apps on the desktop. However, almost nobody is writing traditional desktop apps anymore, so we’re either going to be running tablet apps on the desktop, or else running all of our apps inside of a goddamn web browser. Personally? I think the former is the lesser of two evils.
However, if this doesn’t work for Microsoft, then I think it’s safe to say that Windows Phone (and RT as well) is pretty much done.
Yes. They’re pretending again that touch-first mobile apps are perfectly fine on the desktop and praying that by calling them “Universal” we will believe it this time around.
Fiduciary ones, to their shareholders as represented by the Board.
Look, Microsoft has *never* placed the needs of customers at any meaningful level. They are hyper-focused on their #1 responsibility, which is to return value to shareholders. Customers, like suppliers and employees, are merely an input that can be exploited and from which revenue is extracted.
They have always been this way. Right from the very first releases of Windows, the M$ culture has been one that actually views customers as stupid; gullible, intractable and prone to emotional outbursts. At least Apple treats their customers with a smidgeon of acknowledgement that they have some redeeming qualities. It has been this way for more than three decades.
There mere fact that they would finally release a product with a decent measure of promise, only to let it (and by extension, its customers) die a slow death without even the decency of admitting it, shows that nothing has changed.
I used to say I would never be a customer of Microsoft, but I am happy to be a shareholder. I still stand by that.
Sorry to hear about your iPhone! Can I interest you in a nice Nexus device?
For Pete’s sake. Is there no end to your anti-Apple rhetoric, Thom?
…sorry. Somebody was going to say it eventually.
I sure hope you are being sarcastic, since this is an anti-Microsoft Phone article. It is true that Thom gets accused of a vigorous anti/pro Apple, anti/pro Microsoft, anti/pro Linux bias.
I was definitely being sarcastic. Since I’ve seen Thom be accused of being anti-Apple in the comments of a decidedly pro-Apple post without a hint of irony, I figure the next step is to accuse him of being anti-Apple in a not-really-but-kinda-sorta-anti-Windows post.
What a bunch of whingers, I actually got off my arse and made an account to let you know that. I almost did when some one ranted how bad windows 8 was (I guess the author needed the start button along with their mummy).
I guess prepare for windows phones to take off, look at MDM and BYOD on corp. The CEO and his best mates all upgrade their phones because iOS 6 comes out, but no MDM platform is that current. They don’t understand. The CEO now has the VPN disabled and a 4 digit PIN between him and the corp secrets of an ASX200 company.
Apple are tight lipped on any roadmap, and wonder why corp customers don’t show them the love, after they made them buy iPads 20 at a time from a retail store because they wont sell you 150 at a time.
Android is so fragmented, a lot of people that BYOD are rooted so they can get some sort of update, or they bought from Vodafone/Samsung and the phone makes boop sounds when they dial, like it’s a my little pony theme. For whatever reason most android phones get rooted if they are still in service when they are a few years old or teh device they have bogged down with all the crappy customizations these companies do to android.
Well the MDM platform isn’t keen on rooted phones either!
No wonder Delta handed out 19000 of them to staff. Microsoft aren’t on the MDM bandwagon, the futile attempt to managed disparate devices.
I personally don’t give a flying hoot about the authors opinion. These articles just goes to show how bad these tech journalists decisions were, and now they are complaining about the devices. Go back to blackberry apps fellas.

All their efforts are on the corporate side of Microsoft sales. Lots of good tech but nothing is made for consumer use.
It is quite sad. Windows 10 will kill all potential for Metro usage on the desktop. Microsoft have very few designers and too many programmers. They still can’t be bothered update their basic Photo app to do sorting.
All the blame resides in Redmond.
PS: I can safely bet that the next Office won’t be a Metro app.
There was potential for Metro (Modern) UI?
Aside from its use in mobile, there was never potential for it on the Desktop. It just didn’t fit.
Well, Microsoft has historically had a lot of machine-user interface designers and machine-machine-interface designers; often to the their detriment. Though too often they drink their own kool-aid too much, get in the rut, and put on the blinders – which is what happened with Metro where they ignored any input that said “this is bad, don’t to do this”.
Since Office was never a Metro app that is a really safe bet.
And honestly that showed the very big limitations of Metro – the fact that they could not get their own Office group to produce a native Metro (Modern) UI version of the software.
I have just made the same decision. I have had enough and ordered an iPhone 6+.
The 1020 has the best camera which is badly let down by the software supporting it.
As time went on I found I eventually used my phone as a dumb phone and used an iPad for anything else as the Windows Phone apps were terrible.
… on the southern european countries it is all about Android and Windows Phone
Where in southern Europe? I travel extensively in Europe and i have rarely seen any windows phones in either Greece, Italy, Spain, Malta, Croatia, Cyprus or Portugal or do you mean southern as in Romania, Serbia, Kosovo, Republic of Vardar and Monte Negro? since i visit those countries less often.
A few years ago those yellow large lumias was a bit less rare though.
Portugal, Italy and Greece.
Maybe we just aren’t on the same cities.
In North Eastern US, iPhone is king. They are in everyone’s hands. I rarely see one Android in a crowd of 100 people here in Connecticut. Mostly iPhone 5, 5S and starting to see sixes now.
i’m in the great lakes (USA) region, i’d say it’s about 50% iPhone, down a bit in the last couple of years. i’ve seen exactly 3 surfaces in the wild, and i am mr. mobile coffeeshop. i don’t know that i’ve ever seen someone using a windows phone. i don’t know even know why anyone would think a windows phone was a good idea to begin with.
the android phones try so hard to look like an apple so it’s not easy to tell at first glance.
i see some fatigue with the apple upgrade speed too – lots of iPhone 4’s still around and those folks have been complaining about forced upgrades since new software is starting to exclude the 4.
i’ve said it before, apple’s primary concern going forward shouldn’t be the competition, it should be their happy customers that don’t need to upgrade. i have usually gotten 5+ years out of an apple product which i think is 2 more years than their business model prefers.
then again they make on accessories. but give free tech support. that you have to get by sitting next to all the new pricey accessories. well done.

“Proud owner”? It is just a app-phone for gods sake…
Or is he proud in the way that people that joined a cult is proud?
I don’t post here often but I find that the amount of time Microsoft seems to be spending on Cortana is disproportionate to the amount the average consumer actually gives a crap about such a feature. When Windows Phone 8.1 is lacking basic features like gapless playback or proper integration with Microsoft’s own enterprise products then one really has to stand back and ask some pretty serious questions whether resources in Microsoft are being allocated where they’re needed. Yes, one could argue that having uniquely Windows Phone only features allow you to stand out from the crowd but when you don’t even have the most basic features that other platforms have had since their inception then serious questions do need to be asked.

When the exchange calendar integration is better on IOS than Windows Phone there is a serious problem. I waited for some time but I have now had enough.
That is the part that has always confused me – you’d think that making Windows Phone work really well with their enterprise middleware would be a major focus. I can understand for example not making inroads into the consumer market given that the decisions consumers make tend to be very much driven by trends but I’m dumb founded as to how little inroads they’ve made in the enterprise market. I would have thought that if a company has standardised on Windows for the desktop, laptops and servers with Exchange and other middleware that pushing the Lumia phones and surface devices as an ‘icing on the cake’ should be a relatively easy up sell to long term Microsoft customers.
Cortana with Bing is a bigger deal than just being made for Windows Phone. It’s going to be a useful gadget in Windows 10 on all types of devices and she will continue to get smarter. It’s just the start of a long technology march with her. Not sure if Apple plans on bringing Siri to OS X…or even touch on Apple PCs for that matter…
Edited 2014-12-12 06:00 UTC
It maybe an interesting technology but as I’ve said, if Microsoft haven’t nailed down the basics let alone improved integration in with their own middleware then long term projects like Cortana aren’t going to translate into more ‘bums on seats’ in terms of sales. Personally I think Siri is also overhyped as well – for as long as Siri has been available I’ve never once felt the urge to actually give it ago and I have a feeling that’ll end up being very much the ‘touch screen’ of the IT world where there are niche scenarios where it makes sense but for everyone else it is neat gimmick. Btw, I’m not sold on touch screens outside a few scenarios where it makes sense – tablets, smart phones, hybrid devices when transformed into tablet mode etc.
I tried Siri for a while on my old Company iPhone (now returned due to beancounters) and eventually, I turned it off feeling ‘So?’
My colleague has a Lumia and has turned Cortana off because it was just too intrusive.
I guess when the tech and the software matures these sort of things will find a niche but… I’m definitely in the ‘this is a marketing gimmick’ camp rather than ‘this is really, really useful’ camp.
I’d hate to see cortana dev stop. For one thing it is making Apple take the tech more seriously. They’ve hired a lot of people to work in this area of tech in recent months. We probably won’t see the results of that work until iOS 8.
Competition does spur development.
However lets hope that there aren’t a lot of Patent wars just below the horizon.
…it’s taking MS a long time to get a flagship Lumia shipped out the door since buying Nokia. Even though people may leave the platform now, what we are going to see in the future are things that will help the platform. You are going to see a long march of vendors coming out with new phone models using Win 8 and later 10 starting in 2015. These guys are the “cloners” like Acer and other computer manufacturers, not necessarily phone manufacturers, that will jump on the bandwagon, especially in markets outside of the US in the low end since the OS is now free for them to use. You will see higher end phone units in the US in 2015 from HTC and MS themselves. Visual Studio 2015 will start compiling .NET apps for Android, iOS and Windows Phone, which means that any new software written in Visual Studio should be instantly available for all three platforms, instead of using a unique tool for each. This will pull through many new apps that would just not be available for WP on its own. Windows Phone has big problems, but the other platforms are also far from perfection. I still think the tiles and flip to alphabetical list is the best phone front end available.
Edited 2014-12-12 05:53 UTC
Maybe that will change things. But we’ve heard that before, haven’t we? First with WP7, then 7.5, then with WP8, WP8.1 and then because now it is free.
Maybe it’ll happen this time, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Time for another procession:
http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/10/microsoft-celebrates-windows-pho…
If there is something I’m certain of, is that Microsoft has a lot of potential for future disappointment, surely they will be the end of very many other things to come.
I have a HTC 8X that I love, both for its size (big enough, but not too big) and gorgeous screen. It takes fantastic pictures. It generally feels fast and it’s slim in the pocket. I was ending days at 50% charge regularly. I know that the app store is lacking, but really there wasn’t anything I wanted that wasn’t on WP. It even recently got Minecraft. I really liked the way notifications and the main screen of Windows Phone were handled. Honestly, it was a great experience.
It’s not without flaws — the power button is way too easy to hit and the phone used reboot in my pocket often. Sometimes it would decide not to send texts for vague network-related reasons.
I told myself I was going to stick it out until Windows Phone 8.1 arrived on the phone. We’re not 5 months past general availability and HTC merely says that the phone is in “Carrier Validation”. I remember waiting for versions of WebOS to go through “Carrier Validation” and it was frustrating, to say the least.
I gave up waiting. I bought an unlocked Nexus 5. I had Lollipop on my phone the day it released. The battery life is much worse, and the phone is large (though usable), but on the whole I’m very happy with it.
Microsoft needs to get updates out there and more often. They need to get more phones out there that are what people want, not just more gigantic. Honestly, I’d love a Nexus-style unlocked phone that very quickly receives updates for enthusiasts. Even a webpage that easily differentiates the phones that are out there.
I still miss WP’s keyboard and cursor system.
I don’t understand why you just don’t download the Developer Preview app and get the upgrades from Microsoft directly. You can have the latest release in a heartbeat. I had Cortana on my Lumia 925 months before it was available officially from T-Mobile.
Edited 2014-12-13 02:27 UTC
I totally didn’t realize it was that easy. I’ll check into it! Thanks!
Whenever articles like this pop up, I fail to see a valid reason for their existence. And yes – before you start arguing, I’m a (happy) Windows Phone user. Who has evidently “failed” in choosing it, according to the main statement of this article.
At this point, we all know that WP is all but a commercial success. Nevertheless, Microsoft has obvious reasons to support its own mobile platform – or, more cleverly, its unified Windows platform (like it should have been right from the start). And while it is clear that users looking for the bleeding edge in games and super-specific apps would not want to take the WP route, there are others that would – and are actually doing it.
If this wasn’t the case, then why apps keep being ported to the platform, slowly yet continuously? Had it already been sentenced to death like Thom states, that wouldn’t happen. And I can’t believe that developers do that exclusively because they are being paid for it by MS.
In the end, to me all this stuff seems just another FUD-on-WP rant like many I’ve seen several times here lately. Don’t like this or that platform? Don’t like MS, or Apple, or Google for that matter? Fine, but don’t pretend to convince others that they made a failed choice – because this is actually how all this sounds.
And no, I’m not nitpicky. I’ve been reading this site for more than ten years, and I miss the times when news were actually OS-related from a purely-technical point of view – which I bet is what still keeps most readers interested, even nowadays.
If it was a discussion from a purely technical point of view, WP would be the winner by a long shot. Better resource management, better keyboard, Cortana is already better than Siri, Tiled front end interface is miles ahead of both Android and iOS, NFC that actually works, longer battery life, stability. These are the reasons why it’s so much better. Most iterations of Android devices are sluggish considering their hardware specs, the software, including the Apps store is not stable. iPhones battery life still sucks, NFC is still not implemented outside of Apple Pay, and the map/driving directions lead people into Austrailian deserts. You can’t beat Nokia’s NOW mapping, walking, mass transit and driving directions with iOS or Google Maps. People dump on the OS and probably never even used the devices. I have owned many of all three and I am still loving the Lumia. Attaching emails, sharing and contact management on WP is also way better than both iOS and Android by a long shot.
