Microsoft knows how to «send»

In the 2010 not very distant 2010, the new operating system for the Windows Phone mobile devices, which was designed to replace the Windows Mobile, which was not quite successful at that time. Not the most successful then, but already beginning to show yourself now, an attempt by Microsoft to take a place among other giants of the mobile market, namely Apple and Google, which have long been providing us with iOS and Android devices, now and then turning the creators sideways because of … the idiocy of the «creators» themselves. By the way, in Russia Windows Phone devices began to be sold a year later, that is, in 2011, if someone does not know how to count, and the first devices on this platform were HTC Mozart. I am the owner of this device, but not the point. There was practically no advertising campaign at that time, and it appeared somewhere, probably a year, and Microsoft, let’s say, overdid it. Abundant number of devices on Windows Phone 7.5 pretty soon took its place on the shelves, but because of the dominance of Google and Apple, no one paid attention to these nondescript dark clones (outwardly) of the same Android devices. And in stores often consultants Distributed buyers take these strange devices and called for choosing something with the logo of the green robot. However, Windows Phone was able to collect some bunch of fans who, despite the obvious flaws, the absence of many functions and generally dampness of the system, believed that Microsoft would simply not leave this, and these devices would visit some good update that would allow the Windole in one row with other well-known devices. Of course, very many sincerely believed that the long -awaited Windows Phone 8 would come to their phone. A huge amount of advertising appeared, a bunch of articles describing the pros and cons of the system, it seemed, here it is, a good mobile system from Microsoft. And then suddenly the news: Windows Phone 8 Will not appear on WP 7.5 devices due to hardware inconsistency. This news appeared a couple of months after the publication of Nokia Lumia 900, one of the most powerful devices based on WP 7.5. That even this device is not suitable? Ahahahahahaha, no. 20 thousand rubles were given in order to find out that your apparatus was outdated immediately after the birth.
“But we will not leave you,” Microsoft said and talked about Windows Phone 7.8, an update that will be released immediately after the first devices on WP8. And again, news about possible innovations, the belief that Microsoft will do everything possible to in WP7.8 The functions that allows the hardware … half a year have passed. If from the entire mass of the news about WP to tear out those related to 7.8, they can be counted on the fingers. But then the most long -awaited one appeared: 7.8 came out. Hurray, comrades! Hooray? Additional visual nurses – that’s all that Microsoft offered us after a pre -Ooool time. Normal Skype – no. Transfer via Bluetooth – no. Nothing that the iron of the phone on WP7 may well afford! Or maybe there will be one more? Or maybe it’s a test? Microsoft smiles slyly, puts his hand in his pocket and takes out his fat middle finger from there with the words: “Look for new functions? Pay attention to Windows Phone 8 or buy a new phone.»
Yes, microsoft, and you go toDick. WITH:

P.S.
1) HTC first of all supported the idea of ​​Windows Phone, but Nokia turned out to be a favorite. Feel free to call vinphones with nozzlers.
2) no matter what, my little Mozart suits me in absolutely everything. There are games, there are music, surfs are no furious. Only a good skype is missing, by God.

The best comments

And I really like microsoft. In its own system, Windows for 8 months not support their own GFWL – this is ingenious!

Well, what. Standard tactics for https://nonukcasinosites.co.uk/klarna/ them. With Win Mobile, about the same. And indeed, at the current rate of development, manufacturers are extremely necessary for the people to change their glands as soon as possible to new. And this is another of the most harmless ways to influence this.

My Nokia C2-01 looks at all this, like shit.The manufacturer is more profitable for us to change phones once a year. And with our wrapping for the brand, you need to be a millionaire to do this. And in new phones the functions are not so super-boiled and necessary to buy.Therefore, only Chinese smartphones on android for three thousand rubles.

-We released the suitable Windows Phone
-Hooray!
-And then we will release WP8
-But how are we?
-And for you we will find a normal update WP7.8
-Well, cheers!
..
-And where is the normal update?
-For your bottoms? Lal, buy devices on wp8.

And WP8 does not work for wp7. Is the new system so different from the previous?

The policy of Microsoft is just slightly picked up. While Apple shows that the new device is cooler there, it’s better, it can, Microsoft says that your devices are shit, take new.

Yes, nothing, in my opinion. The difference is how between W8 and W8 RT (in addition, a type that is now engaged in unlocking W8RT once proved that it is essentially the same eight, but with a cunning-blocked opportunity to establish applications. Marketing move, in general).

They could dissuade for another reason – sellers for different models in different percentage of sales dripping. And sometimes nothing at all. Although most likely they really really wanted to help.
And give 20 thousand for lumia? Thank you, no, I just passed by ..

Well, as it were, the «normal» concept is relative. For them it may be normal. Maybe one of the users was also satisfied only with cosmetic changes. Assurances of MS that it will be better – also an old song.
