I seriously don't know how you guys like the design, i wont say i absolutely hate it, But I don't like it, You just get the feeling you are being limited (which is not the case, but that's the feeling you get having only 1 page). And i don't know if this makes sense, but Android/IOS feels like a more "fun" OS. The Icons and menu's are better animated.
Plus the live tiles, Its probably not a bad idea, but it just does not work for me. the re-sizing of icons just does not feel right.
I know its different strokes for different okes, But the fact that WM is dying is proof that most people agrees with me, the whole OS just feels wrong, i cant put my finger on it. Like moving from Windows 7 to windows 8....

The "pages" are just vertical instead of horizontal, with smooth endless scrolling. :D

I love the windows phone design, and 10 is even better than 8.1. I actually feel sorry for the person using an android whenever I see the rows of icons. iPhone is of course the least useful, since you cant even have 1 icon in the top row, and then 2 in the bottom. It HAS to fill the page top to bottom.

Ironic then that my next phone will probably be an iPhone. The reason I want to switch is lack of apps, and the inferiority of the available apps, and I think that's why many others don't use windows phone either.

Yeah it's definitely lack off apps that people leave. And in turn devs don't want to develop apps for a platform with very few users.
As I said.... no space for that third OS, the other two OS's that started it are still there. Check how the Firefox OS and the Sailfish OS are similar to Android and going no where.

ey.... looks like some apps are starting to flow in. Steam finally showed up, and now the Official F1 app also finally been released. In the space of 2 weeks.
There is also a ESL App that got released today if anyone cares.

Have to agree, There are some apps I need which are not available on Win10 mob but available on ioS.
