WP 7.8, where are you?

  

Computer Shop News:

Microsoft has announced Windows Phone 7.8 for more than five months, and it still has no news. Paul Thurrott, a well-known IT commentator in the United States, commented on the matter last week, saying that Microsoft should not treat the most loyal early users, and called on Microsoft to announce the progress of Windows Phone 7.8. . The following is the text:



When Microsoft released Windows Phone 7.8 in June, I knew there was no such thing. At the time, early users were disappointed because they couldn't upgrade to Windows 8. Microsoft seemed to be giving them a little favor. Windows Phone 7.8 was announced at the end of the Windows Phone Summit in June. At this conference, Microsoft released Windows Phone 8, but announced that it is not compatible with WP 7.x, because WP 8 uses the Windows 8/NT platform, while WP 7.x uses the old Windows CE platform. As a result, Microsoft also announced WP 7.8, claiming to bring the best user experience in WP 8 to existing WP 7.x phones, including a new starter interface and customizable tiles. The WP 8 mobile phone has been on the market for almost a month, and it turns out that these features are indeed the most valuable new experience in the WP 8 system. If existing WP 7.x users can upgrade to WP 7.8, there are a number of benefits. However, Microsoft has not released WP 7.8. Too much, they haven't even mentioned it anymore. I understand the privacy policy that Sinowski has set for the Windows team, so I have not asked about Windows 7.8 since the announcement in June to the release of Windows Phone 8.1 at the end of October. I just thought that before or on the day of WP 8, Microsoft would quietly release the WP 7.8 update for all WP 7.5 users. However, hope is lost. At that time, I sent an email asking about this, but the reply I received was “No comment”. Now, more than five months have passed, and Microsoft has never really talked about WP 7.8 publicly, nor did it suggest when it will be released. Microsoft, you can't respond to early users with silence, they are your most loyal users. In fact, you have been quite disrespectful to users. Considering your bizarre and flawed ecosystem strategy (the most obvious example of not being able to get Xbox Video content on Windows Phone 8), I don't understand why you feel that users should support you and your mobile platform. At the Windows Phone Summit, Windows Phone department manager Terry • Myerson has said that he is very concerned about Windows Phone 7.5 users. Five months of silence has passed, and it is time to prove that you really care, whether it is very concerned or a little bit of care. It’s time to open the door, post a message and talk about WP 7.8. Tell us when to release and explain why it takes a long time.
