In a speech to the sponsors of the Imagine Cup (a competition of technology for students), the Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer said the first generation of Windows Phone is a success. "I loved the applications I've seen Windows Phone and use them. For those who before did not work with any phone on the market today we are ahead with Nokia, "said the executive.
Regarding your comment, we can say that the first generation of Windows Phone came to the public questioned the quality, since the operating system was new and unfamiliar. The device, although dynamic, brought many questions and many users were unhappy about the battery, a tough time turning it off, among other issues outlined in the forum for enterprise solutions.
Despite the criticism, the WP7 brought a clear and accessible format, providing everything you need to seamlessly, despite having some difficulties as the delayed updates, and compared with Android or IOS, the system does not really be as functional as the others that dominate the market longer.
What is certain is that, as the Steve Ballmer said in the Imagine Cup, Microsoft has improved a lot to be able to display in a short space of time, a phone that could fit the profile of the consumer.
Now we can only await the arrival of Christmas for a closer view of the second generation of Windows Phone, which surely should provide great improvement to the system.
