Can you reborn with Win10? WP five-year development history review

  

Computer store news: Although Microsoft under the Windows 10 layout looks ambitious, but the Windows 10 Mobile approach does not seem to please consumers, including "looks very Low-priced flagship machine Lumia 950/950XL, low-end machine with a low price at the same price, official version of Windows 10 Mobile constantly jumping. The stubborn Microsoft has not shown enough sincerity in the mobile phone market, and the reason why Windows Phone is not ignorant is probably also here.


Windows Mobile Operating System


When the smartphone market was still immature, Windows Phone still had a place. In particular, Windows Mobile once surpassed 40% of the US market share, but "don't think aggressively" Microsoft faced the iPhone and Android two rising stars still no action, basically sentenced Windows Mobile to death.


Windows Phone 7 operating system


Later, when the Saipan Empire collapsed, Nokia also abandoned the S60 and Saipan 3, and jointly developed by Intel. & rdquo; system, which is MeeGo. At this time, Microsoft finally realized that if you don't act again, you really have to miss the opportunity. So in 2010, Windows Phone 7 was introduced, replacing Windows Mobile, which has entered the late stage. And this Windows Phone 7, is the WP phone that we know now, the Metro design style (later changed to Modern).


Windows Phone 7 Funeral Door


The ridiculous thing is that on the occasion of the launch of Windows Phone 7, Microsoft's Windows Phone team for the iPhone and BlackBerry (Android I wonder why it was spared Difficult to hold a virtual "funnel", a group of people dressed in exotic costumes parade on the road, and even ready for the iPhone "棺木", and hearse, posted "all Windows Phone 7 OS Platform Buries the Competition (Windows Phone 7 platform will bury competitors) & rdquo; poster. Of course, the reality seems to be just the opposite. Now Windows Phone has not been "buried", but it has also been "buried" in the sea.

Since the launch of Windows Phone 7, it has been accompanied by a lot of spit. You can't imagine that the first version of Windows Phone 7 has many flaws. There is no multitasking mechanism, the volume cannot be adjusted separately, there is no notification center, no folders, etc. This kind of system is almost unbelievable.

If all the above defects can be solved by the upgrade of the subsequent version, then the next thing can basically announce that Microsoft has prepared for themselves "棺木&", and it was buried. .


On June 21, 2012, Microsoft officially released Windows Phone 8 at the Developer Conference in San Francisco, USA. Due to the revolution of the kernel, the previous Windows Phone 7.5 phone could not be upgraded to Windows Phone 8 can only be upgraded to Windows Phone 7.8, dubbed the "Consolation Edition", which is a devastating blow to all WP phone users. At that time, the Lumia 800 officially landed in China in April, and the price of the Bank of China was as high as 3,000. It is conceivable that the Lumia 800 users at home and abroad are in the mood.

In addition, the slow improvement of the system and the disregard of user needs are slowly pushing Windows Phone to an increasingly embarrassing situation, while iOS and Android are in Microsoft at the same time. The improvement is not perfect. You can make excuses for Windows Phone's lack of power, but this must be the result of Microsoft's self-sufficiency.

The five-year-old scene has passed by, and the once-fast development and Windows Phone, which can be taught with iOS and Android, are full of delays in Microsoft’s indiscriminate tossing. Few fans are supporting, and a large part of these fans are fans of “Nokia”. If Microsoft does not lower its high head and listen to the voices of users and developers, then the funeral for the iPhone is The best farewell.



Fortunately, the mature iOS and Android have slowed down the pace of development, and the issues of general concern for users such as battery life, power consumption and performance are not It can be solved overnight, which also gives Microsoft the opportunity to catch up again. Microsoft is playing a big game in the next game. Windows 10 is Microsoft's ambition. Windows 10 Mobile, which carries Microsoft's mobile dream, will not succeed. Time will tell us the answer.
