I picked up a cheap Lumia as the whole WinPhone thing was winding up. They were actually quite nice. The whole winphone project must have been too low-key for the usual Microsoft Management to stick their noses into, and left competent people running the show.
If WinPhone had actually caught on, I’m sure that some asshole manager would have taken over and turned it into yet another Windows 11. But for a brief moment, MS made a good OS.
With no apps.
