Widget from SocialMart

Windows phone is a unique mobile operating system developed and presented by Microsoft specialists. For the first time, owners of Nokia smartphones were able to communicate with the “tiled” operating system. These devices were the first to run Windows Phone. What awaits a user who decides to purchase one of the modern smartphones on WP?

Overview of the main features of Windows Phone

Acquaintance with the operating system begins after the first inclusion of the smartphone. Windows Phone will prompt the user to set the desired language and make basic settings:

To fully work with the operating system, you need to bind an Outlook, Hotmail or Live account to choose from:

The interface of the system is thought out to the smallest detail. Even the lock screen looks very nice and informative as much as possible.


One of the unique features of the operating system under consideration is the possibility of complete personalization and uniqueization. The user can customize the desktop in full accordance with their needs. If desired, you can set your own home screen background. In combination with tiles, it looks very impressive:


Regardless of the resolution and screen size, the user can enable an additional row of icons on the desktop of his device. Three rows allow you to organize the working space as flexibly and conveniently as possible.


New and Familiar Features

If there are no complaints about the appearance of the operating system - everything is thought out, organically and very conveniently, then with regards to the functions, many users who are used to Android and iOS have a number of doubts. It is safe to say that these doubts are in vain! With the functional component of Windows Phone, too, everything is fine.

First, you need to pay attention to the "Phone" section. Although modern smartphones combine many different functions, the main purpose of the phone - making calls - should not be forgotten either. By clicking the corresponding button on the desktop, the user will be taken to the calls section:


Calls are conveniently grouped by subscribers, which saves the menu from long lists of identical calls.

Devices on the "eight" received a new player. Instead of the standard application, well known to every Windows Phone user, the Xbox Music program is now installed:


The program is very convenient and more functional than its predecessor. Additional applications such as Video, Podcasts and Radio in the new version of the OS have become separate. The video player finally has the ability to rewind videos using the slider. You can also customize the display of subtitles.

The user has the ability to configure "Charge Saver", making the battery consumption as rational as possible:


In a convenient and beautiful form, this section lists all applications that consume battery power. This will identify the most "gluttonous" programs and disable them when the battery is low.

The camera app is also beyond praise. If in the "seven" it was low-functional and not particularly convenient, then in the new versions of such complaints do not arise:




The application store allows the user to find the program or game he needs in a matter of seconds. Everything is conveniently sorted into categories and other indicators:


The built-in browser supports all modern features. Possibility of portrait and landscape orientation is available. The browser plays the video without problems if the page is formatted in HTML5:


The developers did not deprive Windows Phone of the ability to work with cloud storage services. If desired, the user can easily save important data and upload it to the cloud without any problems:

In this review, only the main functions of the Windows Phone operating system were considered and the key differences between the new version of the OS and the previous one were given. In fact, the functionality is much richer. VPN support is available, the function of broadcasting the smartphone screen to other devices, improved NFC technology and many other useful things. So Windows Phone is a very interesting operating system with a great future that definitely deserves your attention!

Windows Phone is the third most popular mobile operating system after the well-known iOS and Android. In fairness, it should be said that this is the last place of the current major players. Tizen, Firefox OS, BlackBerry OS, Ubuntu Touch are not widely used.

Microsoft's mobile OS became widely known after the release of Windows Phone 8.1, with its recognizable tiled interface. The previous version of Windows Phone 7 was not commercially successful. This year there are devices with the latest version of Windows 10 (Not Windows Phone 10). Windows 10 is positioned as an OS that works equally well on all devices.
The choice when searching for a smartphone on Windows Phone is not as great as when choosing Android but that doesn't mean there isn't a choice.

Windows backgrounds are available in all price ranges to suit any budget. True, there is a meager choice in terms of manufacturers, the list consists almost entirely of Microsoft.

Microsoft Lumia 950

Advantages:

  • Great display
  • Windows 10 out of the box
  • Excellent camera

Flaws:

  • boring design
  • Plastic could be better used
  • Software bugs

The Lumia 950 is one of two Microsoft models in the high-end smartphone market. Not the most expensive of the top ones, but in terms of hardware they did not save at all.

With Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage and rear camera 20MP, Lumia 950 can keep up with the best smartphones on any platforms, in terms of numbers on the specifications. Add to that the resolution of the 5.2-inch 2560x1440 562ppi AMOLED display.
Windows 10 on smartphones is at launch and there are some quirks and bugs. But, despite the dampness, the Lumia 950 can take advantage of one of its W10 Continuum features. Using either Miracast or an additional display, you can turn your phone into something similar to a PC.

Microsoft Lumia 950XL


Advantages:

  • Already on Windows 10
  • Excellent camera
  • Similar Lumia 950

These two smartphones are very similar, and many of them are the same. The display is different, it is slightly bigger size and is 5.7 inches with a resolution of 2560×1440. Another Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor

A good choice for fans of the big screen, given that the battery life is much better than that of the small brother. With such a display, the charge reserve will never be superfluous

Acer Liquid Jade Primo


Advantages:

  • Support for Continuum in Windows 10
  • Large selection of PC-like accessories
  • Powerful hardware

Flaws:

  • Not a very good camera
  • A bit pricey

It was first shown at IFA in September 2015. This is Acer's first attempt at making a top windows phone. Carbon copy hardware like the Lumia 950.

Special attention should be paid to the implementation of Continuum. Acer introduces a dedicated docking station. And with only a monitor at hand, it is possible to turn a mobile device into a “full-fledged PC”. Of the proposed interfaces, a standard HMDI, as well as two USB ports - 2.0 and 3.0. By the way, you can connect to the monitor without a docking station, via HDMI
Acer Liquid Jade Primo cannot be imagined without a wide range of accessories. For corporate clients, there is a PC in a box offer, which will include a monitor, as well as everything you need for a docking station: a keyboard, mouse, and possibly an alternative to a laptop.

Microsoft Lumia 650


  • Good display
  • Metal carcass
  • Great price
  • No wireless charging

The Lumia 650 arrived a year after the 640, but without any fanfare, a simple press release, and the phone was on sale a few days later. But this does not mean that the phone is not worthy of attention. It is damn attractive in terms of value for money. For your hard-earned money, you will receive - an 8-megapixel camera, a super-bright 5-inch oled display, which will give a hundred points head start to anyone Android smartphone in your class. However, the processor is suitable for tasks requiring low performance, such as browsing the web, listening to music, etc.

Microsoft Lumia 640


  • Good display in the budget segment
  • Good battery life
  • Great price
  • No wireless charging
  • Little internal memory

The Lumia 640 proves that you can have a fantastic smartphone without having to spend a lot of money. Not only on Windows Phone, but in general the best cheap smartphone.
The hardware is on par with the older but much more expensive Lumia 830, only inferior in camera. At 640, the camera isn't that bad when you look at the price of the phone.
Add here a good battery life, good display with Glance Screen and announced Windows 10 upgrade

Microsoft Lumia 550


  • Decent display
  • Super low price
  • Design

Along with new top-end Windows 10 smartphones, Microsoft has announced a new budget model - Lumia 550
Compared to other Lumia 5 series, the 505 is a big breakthrough. Notably gets a 720p display and a 5MP camera. This model is the cheapest of all models on Windows 10.

Modern mobile gadgets can do a lot. And this is a merit not only of the processor, RAM and other hardware. Without universal mobile operating systems, smartphones would remain mere dialers. On this moment There are three most popular operating systems for mobile devices: Android, iOS and Windows Phone (Mobile). All of them are capable of great things. However, the choice of OS is the prerogative of a particular user. Here a person is guided by his tastes.

The most popular OS is Android. But the Windows-based phone can be found quite often. iOS is not so common due to the high cost of the product. If "Android" is at least a little bit, but known to most, then Windows Phone OS is a dark horse for many. Let's talk about this wonderful system. Has Bill Gates managed to create the perfect mobile OS?

Brief history of the system

If Windows is installed on your mobile gadget, this does not mean at all that it automatically turns into a computer. This is beyond the power of even Bill Gates, coupled with Steve Jobs. The very first versions of the "Windows" system were installed on devices such as Sony Ericsson P1 or HP. Although the functionality of those devices (respectively, the OS) was very limited, but against the background of the “tubes” of the early 2000s, they looked like real computers. Having a Windows phone back then was considered very cool. However, around 2007, Microsoft decided that the system had become obsolete and began to actively develop a new OS, which came out with the release of the controversial Windows 8.

It is worth noting that in this case, the specialists of the company from Redmond carried out a rather ill-conceived operation. They abandoned a system that had been tried and tested for years in favor of a crude product that had frustrated a bunch of users. Microsoft was able to bring the OS to a sane form only after a couple of years. Phone based on Windows 8 has become a real punishment for users. But over time, the situation improved. However, one problem remained. This refers to the scarcity of the app store. If the "Android" Play Store has hundreds of thousands of applications and games, then there are only a couple of hundred of them in the Windows Store.

After the release of Windows 10, the company decided to update the mobile platform as well. However, only in the form of insider updates (Technical Preview). Those unfortunates who dared to upgrade to "ten" got terrible problems with their gadgets. And some even received a "brick" after the update. There was nothing more stupid than installing an “unfinished” system on a normally working device. But after a while, phones based on Windows 10 began to work very adequately. Microsoft has corrected their mistakes. However, the share of WP devices compared to the same "Android" is negligible. Consider the most popular devices on the Windows platform.

A real flagship from the creators of the legendary operating system. Microsoft is running on a Qualcomm quad-core processor clocked at 1600 MHz. It has everything that a modern gadget needs. The most important thing is that Windows Phone 8.1 OS is installed on board (by the factory). But the smartphone can be upgraded to latest version OS. It is worth noting that the system feels great on this device. Everything works quickly, smoothly and clearly. There is only one problem: there are very few applications for this platform. But by 2016 the situation had improved.

Microsoft Lumia 640 will suit those who are fans of Bill Gates and his operating system. There are models both with support for one SIM card and "dual-sim" copies. The specifications of the smartphone are very impressive. There are even LTE support(4G) and NFC chip. This is a completely modern device on the Windows platform.

The device was released in 2015, which immediately has Windows 10 installed in its arsenal. At least something is good - you don’t have to update. Joking aside, the Microsoft Lumia 550 is a very decent smartphone. He, of course, does not shine with flagship characteristics, but he will cope with all everyday tasks with a bang. For this he was created. The "chip" of the gadget is a very high battery life. According to the manufacturer, the device is able to work on a single charge for 16.5 hours of talk time (with 3G enabled). This is an impressive result. The user also has 86 hours of music playback. And in the standby mode, the device is able to work 864 hours. Absolute record holder!

Meanwhile, Microsoft Lumia 550 is the same Nokia, but with a new name. And this Finnish manufacturer is still legendary. And they were the first to use Windows in their gadgets. So this device can be called a continuation of tradition.

Nokia Dual Sim

One of the few Windows devices released under the Nokia brand. Despite the old name, the device combined all the latest achievements of the mobile industry. But most of all users were attracted by Carl Zeiss optics on the camera. This made it unique even at 6.7 megapixels. The last stronghold of the old era - smartphone Reviews about this gadget were extremely positive. While users have not upgraded to "tens". That's when the mess started. But with updates the situation has improved. It's just a shame that Microsoft has followed in the footsteps of Samsung and does not provide older devices with updates.

A wonderful gadget and now has not lost its relevance. Its performance is at the level of mid-range smartphones. And given the original appearance, then there is no price for this device at all. And not only "oldfags" will be happy to possess it.

Nokia Lumia 1020

At one time, this smartphone made a whole revolution. Even before its appearance, the Internet was flooded with rumors about an unrealistically powerful camera of the upcoming flagship. And the rumors did not deceive. According to the manufacturer, 1020 is equipped with a module with a record number of megapixels - 41. This has never happened before. However, upon closer examination, it turned out that the module has only 16 physical megapixels. Everything else is achieved programmatically. But that was also a breakthrough. The camera phone began to be actively bought up by amateurs mobile photography. A Windows phone that takes quality pictures! Who will miss this?

The device was factory installed with Windows 8.1. But soon Microsoft made it possible to upgrade to "ten". Some problems, of course, took place, but they were fixed by subsequent updates. After that, the excitement around 1020 subsided. The smartphone was not as good as we would like. But making allowances for the fact that it was developed by Microsoft, and not by Nokia, one can forgive this. After all, the brainchild of Bill Gates tends to spoil everything it touches. Remember the epic with Skype.

HP Elite X3

This device is relatively new. It was released in 2016. The company, which produces mainly laptops and PCs, has introduced a smartphone. This is already interesting, since this has not happened for ten years. The gadget did not disappoint. It has everything you need for comfortable work. A docking station allows you to turn your mobile device into a full-fledged computer. If the Elite X3 tops the list of phones with Windows Phone on board, then no one will be surprised. Its power is so prohibitive that the "ten" installed on it is not able to reveal all its huge potential.

Although to call this creation a "telephone" is a terrible blasphemy. Before us is the CCP in all its glory. From conventional computer it differs only in size and the ability to call. But in the camp of smartphones, it is considered an overgrowth. Still would! With a screen diagonal of 6 inches, it easily stands out from other mobile gadgets. HP is great as always. Her PDAs have always been able to impress users. Experience in the production of full-size PCs and laptops.

Alcatel POP2 Windows

A gadget that was announced back in 2014. However, its release is scheduled for 2017. The device is based on Windows 8.1. Its capacity is enough to solve all everyday tasks. It will also work, but not in the coolest games. For them, the device is weak. But there is support for the latest generation of cellular networks. And it is absolutely impossible to imagine a modern smartphone without it. The gadget will appeal not only to students. Many will find it attractive. And if we take into account the fact that it will not be particularly burdensome for the price, then POP2 can generally become a bestseller.

Alcatel has been known for its phones since the early 2000s. However, in the era of smartphones, the manufacturer was left behind and could not break into the mobile device market. Perhaps POP2 Windows will somehow change the situation? I would like to believe in it, because the company is not bad. Her devices have always been of high quality.

Acer Liquid Jade Primo

Affordable smartphone with almost flagship specifications. The good thing about Acer is that they have managed to create a phone based on Windows Mobile 10 that stands out from hundreds of similar devices. The company has always been distinguished by the originality of design. And this gadget is no exception: its appearance is impressive. But the features are even more impressive. Few Windows phones can boast a FullHD screen, a powerful camera and 3 gigabytes of RAM. It should be noted that this is not the first experience of the company in the production of mobile devices. It can be seen that Acer has not lost its knack. Her devices, as always, are on top.

Archos 50 Cesium

Little is known about the mobile devices of this company. She never rushed to the leaders of the mobile industry, so her devices did not differ in unattainable prices. The more interesting is their novelty from the category of "windophones". The smartphone has average performance and standard appearance. But at a price it is closer to state employees. Even the monsters of the mobile industry cannot create a cheap and powerful enough gadget, because they all want to get a kickback for the brand. But Archos does not need this. Therefore, her latest creation may well lead the ranking of the best-selling.

Acer Liquid M220

Another brainchild from Acer. The company tried to make a high-quality, inexpensive and productive smartphone based on Windows. Did they succeed or not? Decide for users. But externally, the device looks very decent. There are no complaints about performance: we have a confident "middle peasant". And for the price it is very pleasant. It is worth noting that Acer is one of the few companies that supplies all its devices with timely updates. And this is another plus in the track record of the company. By choosing Acer products, you will definitely always be in trend, despite the "antiquity" of your smartphone.

Dexp Ixion W5

A smartphone from a little-known and not entirely clear manufacturer. According to some reports, Dexp is a Russian company that sells equipment from "left" Chinese manufacturers under its own brand. Knowing this, you need to be extremely careful. However, the device looks very tempting. For a frankly low price, the user is offered a gadget with average characteristics. This alone should be alarming. And the reviews about the manufacturer in general, and about the model in particular, are not encouraging. The owners complain about the clumsy assembly, constant firmware glitches and the complete lack of updates. Though on it and Windows.

Judging by the reviews of the owners of the equipment of this company, it does not deserve trust. However, smartphones from this manufacturer can be bought by those who care about the price of the device, and not its quality. If you are guided only by this principle, then Dexp products are very, very attractive. But no more.

HTC Mozart 7

The next device from the category of "windophones" - Firmware Windows Phone 8.1 is available on it. Although the factory comes with version 7.5. So no need to panic. The device is positioned as "musical", although there is nothing musical (by modern standards) in it. In general, the device is from the category of "ancient". But some will like it. Because of the look. Gadgets from NTS from the past have a unique design. Their appearance stands out among the faceless modern "soap dishes".

The smartphone, meanwhile, can be successfully used as a regular dialer, GPS-navigator and MP3 player. But for surfing the Internet, it is not suitable. The screen is small. But for the money that is now being asked for this gadget (naturally, it was in use, because it has already been discontinued), the set of functions is quite adequate. Well, beautiful and functional gadgets have always been HTC's forte. Windows Phone 8 on board (after the update) is also a good bonus.

Conclusion

Few manufacturers can please the user a wide range smartphones on Windows, but they are available. Although in much smaller quantities than Android devices. Meanwhile, this mobile platform (with adequate “finishing”) manifests itself as a very stable, reliable and stylish operating system. There is only one catch: a very small number of applications in the store. Some developers do not even strive to release applications for this platform. However, the situation is improving. The store will be up and running soon. But this platform will never be able to fully compete with Android. Even though she's good.

Smartphones on Windows, which first saw the light in 2012, diversified the choice of mobile devices. Of course, these gadgets failed to instantly gain huge popularity and overtake such titans as Android and iOS. Smartphones on Windows Phone from Nokia have become the most popular and well-known. Moreover, this company has recently become the face of Microsoft.
