TheVerge: Microsoft unveiled its Windows Phone 8 operating system earlier this week with software improvements and support for new hardware, but the bombshell for current Windows Phone users was the news of no updates to the new OS. Existing Lumia Windows Phone devices, and some other handsets, will be offered a Windows Phone 7.8 update that includes a new Start Screen interface.
WhatsApp announced ending support for some phones, and it won't work on them. The popular messaging platform, owned by Facebook, has updated its support
Moreover, the world influenced by Android and iOS the company has been accommodated, he is not excessively anxious for the future of Microsoft.
Microsoft's Corporate Vice President for Windows, Joe Belfiore, has finally admitted that Windows Phone will be ceasing its existence.
I do not get it, if they still made windows phones, I would most definitely still support them. It was a much more professional and better looking OS than Android and IOS, definitely prefered Windows OS, but oh well, it is what it is.
I didn't even know they still made Windows phones. Lol, I thought they gave up a while ago.
Thats pretty lousy attitude to have, as a company you should be thinking "what more can I do?" if thats Nokia's attitude its no wonder they are in so much trouble
No, you fucked people who trusted you Nokia. This was a very android move, just dumping support for a platform. Now i know it isn't really Nokias fault, since Microsoft decides the release schedule, but I'm sure nokia knew that when they built the phone. They haven fallen into the generic manufacture way of business. Build + ship + move to next build
