I guess this will be a great Oppo'tunity for Microsoft (to keep making phones that no one will buy).

I don't know, this kinda reminds me of early Android. When Apple was at it's peak & Android was starting out many people where saying the same you are saying right now about Microsoft.
I really think Windows Phone 8 has a chance. Microsoft has pockets to do it. They already have the TOP Android OEM's making WP8 devices so that has to say something.

No one was a bigger fan of Microsoft thaNi, iUsed Windows Mobile from 2002 to June 4, 2010 (when I bought my EVOOOO), but, Microsoft only succeeded in devolution and not evolution. I have since checked out Windows Mobile 6.5, 7.0, 7.1, 7.5, respectively, it's all the same Microsoft limiting crap. For God's sake man, you don't even have Front Facing Cameras on HD2's or HD7's!! What about those Nokia Lumias? And, my favorite, Hotmail Messenger should be available for Windows Mobile with Front Facing Video Chat!! Well. I hope they get their act together. As far as mOi, they've lost my interest as a consumer first and as a techie' second!

I am with you 100%. I too was a Microsoft Windows Mobile guy. The same happened to me, then I discovered Android & the rest is history.
WP8 is correcting all those mistakes so let’s see how it all goes down. Only time will tell if WP8 will succeed.
All I can say is that Microsoft indeed is trying & they are trying very hard.
+1

What WP lacks is the innovaton spirit of Android. iOS used to have that but they are now concentrated in stopping others from doing it.

I hear you, I really do. I think Microsoft's model now is to catch up features wise then innovate. Microsoft has a huge advantage no one else has. They can integrate both the PC & video game worlds with their WP8.
I wouldn't say Microsoft isn't innovating just yet.

This could be a great chance for Microsoft to grab some ground in China, if oppo has a decent sized fan base who love thier designs, maybe they can snag a good chunk of buyers based on hardware design.

Hmm Microsoft's windows on all device's plan is rolling out folks and will be a success to some degree. The way Metro tiles can now be downsized on the screen makes the windows "8" smart phones look less blocky in fact you make the screen look cool. Folks Microsoft is now in the smart phone business with a vengeance look for them to Buy "Rim" and Maybe The Nokia Smart phone division if Nokia sales of Windows 8 smart phones do not work out. I think however Nokia will survive and wont be bought out by Microsoft. Microsoft is near the bottom of smart phone sales but Microsoft will not give up and will improve their smart phones that is why they will have good stuff out before the year is out and beyond

The China market is huge, the economy is growing, and if MS can offer a couple manufacturers to that consumer base in addition to Nokia it is a nice bonus.
That is a nice looking phone.....

They are letting them making Windows Phone 8s? More like begging, Microsoft is having a hard time getting OEMs on board.
