Thats not quite true, that article related to Windows Phone 8.1. Windows phone 10 is still around although MS are not currently making any further devices.

There is still the ongoing rumours for the surface phone however they are just that...

WP10 is still around but no longer in manufacture.
MS have said there will not be anymore windows phones.
The new Nokia's are even running Android now.

I'm sad

Me too actually.
OK, so the app store never really made the grade for social purposes but as a work tool, esp if you have a Win 10 laptop, there's nothing that comes close.
I'm definitely holding on to mine now and I can see prices of the last flagship phones increasing in value too.

I have a Win 10 laptop ... (I took encouraging words from you @MI5 att to download for free Win 10 when all around me were telling me Nooooo it's a load of bother)

The Microsoft / Windows phone is perfect for me ... maybe because I don't bother with music, vids & games on the phone

Music is well catered for (or else I wouldn't survive) but it's what I call "the kids stuff" that is lacking.

Thank you @MI5

I fear I'm a bit of an oddity re: music ... I have much to play in the house but don't ... & ... don't need music in my ears when out ambling around or having a drink / coffee at pubs / cafes
