Microsoft Launches Several Impressive New Devices at Today's Press Event
- Thread starter dgstorm
- Start date
Two things... One, we made sure to categorize this one as "off topic" just to make clear it wasn't our focus. We can appreciate all technology here, and this was the biggest tech news across the web on the day it was reported.
Two, Microsoft is one of Android's competitors and the new Windows 10 is pre-installed on this new Surface Tablet and their new Lumia smartphones. Sometimes it's important to see what the competition is doing to make valid comparisons.
Right on. I've been noticing a lot of this mentality lately about 'focusing' when it comes to delivering content. Not just here but on sites like Android Central and TWiT. Everyone wants them just to report on whatever they are labeled as. I got a couple of things to ask:
- How interesting would those sites really be if they just reported on that topic?
- What does a Blackberry site do now? Or is it just Android now? Where is the line exactly drawn?
- Is ignoring the article/thread that hard to do?
- This is probably the most important of them all. Do you not think any others are interested in these stories?
MS will never get it completely. It's the every other rule. 11 will suck. 12 will rock.
Best thing they've done recently is Office on iOS and Android. Brilliant move there.

There won't be an eleven or twelve. They said it will just be called Windows 10 from here on out.
Let me know when Sammy makes an Edge with Windows...and Edge!

That would be sweet. It's very easy to invest in an Android/Windows phone combination right now if one were to buy the MI Note 4 (I think that's the one). Microsoft released a factory image to be installed on it.
This number should be way higher.
Wasn't Elephone also working to release something in the dual boot area - not sure that it has came to light yet...dual boot devices would definitely be cool to check out!
There was talk earlier this year about a beast phone coming from them that could do it, but I haven't heard anything else about it.

It is for business. For sure.
Personally? Not that interested.
I use a laptop I have for gaming and paying bills. I have a Windows tablet I use for work. I sit at a desk all day, don't want to at home.
Now in 3 years when I can cast Windows to my 42 inch TV and just use the phone as a controller? I'm interested.
Tap the phone, its a mouse. Tap again, a keyboard.
Now you're talking.

Wait.... I just heard that the nicer MS phone is ATT only.
Why Windows Phone is a flop: AT&T exclusivity for Lumia 950 | BGR
Every time I think this company is taking steps in the right direction...they take 1 back.
Sigh....
