Samsung and Microsoft phones


I have recently changed from a Microsoft Nokia Lumia phone to a Samsung galaxy phone, the difference to me is not going to go unreported. I have had my Samsung phone for about a week now and it is so much easier to use and the quality of the screen is so much better. It is lighter and faster processing, with TWO cameras, yes, my windows phone only had one...

Previously I owned a windows phone for about two years, and don't get me wrong it was a good phone and did everything I would expect from a smartphone these days, with the addition of Cortana, it came up to a similar level of that of an iPhone. Cortana was very useful and the features such as inner circle and the news summaries were good too. Samsung don't have a personal assistant such as Cortana or Siri but this is a feature that I am not too bothered about losing as it is not necessary.

Another reason I moved away from Microsoft was because of the most useless app store ever, the windows store. There is literally nothing in that store that anyone would want, no snapchat, no soundcloud, no instagram. On a Samsung phone, it is operated by android, and the google play store is the store used to buy apps, it has pretty much everything you could think of on there.

Now, let me get this straight, I have nothing against windows at all, I have a laptop and computer which are both windows 8, soon to be windows 10, but I think that, having the same layout for a desktop computer and a smartphone is not the best idea. The windows operating system works perfectly for desktops, but not quite as perfect for a handheld device. After all, who needs snapchat on their computer anyway, because its the same operating systems for both desktop and smartphone, there is no difference between them, when there really needs to be.

Overall, Microsoft's range of smartphones are not bad ones, but there are better ones out there, such as Samsung phones or apple. Its your own opinion that matters in the end anyway, if you have a windows phone and love it, don't listen to everyone else. My opinion is one that has been changed because of the conversion from one brand to another.
