I used a Windows Phone for a WEEK

[@Sankew]

Thank you so much for 5000 Subs, This Video took a long time to make!

[@Galaxy.Windows]

iphones suck

[@iiztainkallaiid4188]

Man ill always be a windows phone fan boy.. still dream of the day windows phone make a come back 😅😅

[@SagarJogdand-sw6kq]

Windows phone UI was far ahead of its time!

[@arcielor]

The quality of this video is amazing! This channel needs more subs

[@ahyantechXyoutube]

Seriously you are very much underrated. I hope this video gets a lot of attention. The editing, the shots, everything is just perfect.

[@Sankew]

Thank you so much

[@1mezion]

Love the fact that you gave it a fair chance I love the tiles system there is a company that reproduces it for Android for a couple years now I was happy to see Michael Fisher play around with it on an ultra it looks amazing

[@emmabentley7945]

"The queen died after using this phone" hahah , love that !

[@KofolaDealer]

There are third party apps for youtube, instagram and twitter that somewhat work. Telegram works perfectly for communication. For music there used to be a spotify client but I have no idea if it still works since I just downloaded all of my music. If your phone randomly restarts it's the battery (also causes random freezes or stuttering) - don't forget these phones are almost 8 years old at this point. About continuum.. Turns out you don't actually need the dock, you can just use any random USB-C to HDMI cable - I used it a lot for playing movies or powerpoint presentations and the performance was decent

[@CrossUnity]

Musicloud still works

[@CelesteWuff]

thank you so much for captioning your videos, sankew!

[@NathanDavidYellowGuy]

8:57 Don't forget that Samsung and LG implemented it also for their Samsung galaxy S7, Samsung Galaxy note 7 and LG G5 by 2016

[@lovemadeinjapan]

I use it as daily driver. Should you buy it? I can recommend it (go for the 950XL instead). You are a bit noobish in using the camera, it still can compete with the main iPhone Pro Max 14 one. Especially daylight and macro shots destroy the Apple on IQ. It is a bit slow, but that is no big deal. Manual control is excellent. The best thing of this phone is that it does what it does perfectly, and the things it doesn't are actually nice. This phone is the magic option to declutter your life and cut down stress and fomo. Such a relief to ditch social stuff on the go. Oh and KZbin works great, in the browser. Somehow Google's Explorer support is excellent.

[@CrossUnity]

If you need Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, X etc it all works.

[@kianumandal]

i recalled my brother getting a lumia it broke in like a week

[@wantikjasonchiu4711]

Even though Microsoft Windows Phone might be dead, but Microsoft still made the Surface Duo and other devices after that which the does look like work more like Android and not using the mobile software with e.g. limited app support.

[@GIRISHKUTTALAMNBEE]

The wallpaper is very cool indeed. Also amazing video sankew. I'm a huge fan.

[@adeshmahatme1988]

just because of lack apps to use, it failed, i truly was amazed by ui and camera it was far ahead of its time

[@APK519]

Well i m finding youtubers like you to subscribe 😂

[@333name]

Why wasn't Groove Music installed by default? It was originally shipped with the phone, and worked like Spotify, but if you had downloaded music to your phone you'd be able to play it without a subscription. The best thing about it though was that it also connected to OneDrive, so any music you had on it could be streamed for free. Yeah, 30Gigs of music "on" a phone in 2010 was nice

[@CallMeZrix]

you can make the social media stuff work if you install android emulator or files that downloads special apps and makes it useable for 2023

[@CrossUnity]

There is no android emulator.

[@1mezion]

I would have loved to see you test out the cameras on the Nokia Lumia 1520 and the 1020

[@GS-XV]

Live tiles were not "ahead of their time", but a terrible idea! An icon should be recognizable at a glance, which means with CONSTANT MEMORABLE LOOK, so that you can recognize it at a glance and realize where you are in the OS interface. But if they are changing all the time, for example the Live Tile for the photos app, which is cycling thumbnails of your photos it makes it difficult to recognize at a glance and you feel confused if you have a few of these on your screen.

[@Galaxy.Windows]

a company that its called "Three Stars" in corean had it for years

[@Sankew]

Samsudin🗿

[@Jurgen_Ibro]

If they had not retired from the market I'd still be using my Lumia 830

[@MrJamesshipman]

Ohh you missed cortana. The windows phone answer to Siri that was actually amazing. It kicked siris ass!! No one would believe it in 2014 but I was massively disappointed in Siri when I got the iPhone. It didn't even come close to cortana. In 2019.

[@Sankew]

I wanted to include Cortana, but it stopped working on 2021

[@MrJamesshipman]

@Sankew ohh really that late? I loved my windows phone. I run windows phone skins on my Samsung. The lack of apps killed the phone. Cortana was the best virtual assistant i have ever used. Still to this day. And I didn't have to buy windows ear pod pros for cortana to text and email people.

[@MrJamesshipman]

@Sankew you can see and use some cortana stuff still. Example the speech to text in Microsoft Word on mobile. Adding grammar and punctuation to my text is fantastic. It might not be such a big deal in 2024 but it was mind blowing in 2014.

[@johnalfredgare1723]

I'm using it with the Lumia 1020 and love both. Thanks for this video, though.

[@willlazenby1050]

Great video, this is very well edited. What editing software are you using?

[@Sankew]

Thank you, I use Final Cut Pro

[@iceicebanana1195]

I’m thinking to buy a windows phone because idk it’s fun using it

[@DonnaJohnson-d5y]

Frequent Cartlow shopper, especially with a tight budget. iPhone 12, pre-owned, saved 30%, minor scratches - no big deal.

[@meet_0105]

You deserve more subs bro

[@sahebbeshra7659]

All of this just comes to apps.

[@minority_hunter_69]

Is it possible to root this if yes i would definitely see that

[@nimishplays]

install cutom rom on it

[@-Jaydeep-dt9yz]

We can buy for digital detox

[@Sankew]

That was my intent and it worked well

[@achiever1418]

Which place is this ?

[@Sankew]

India

[@swetkataria5282]

How can i book Uber??😅😅😅

[@digitalmarketing8452]

Windows phone Ui, ux far better than Android and iOS. especially windows ui is more smoother

[@User-86204]

hell no you were definitely paid by microsoft to say that bullshit lol

[@lakerskid2013]

⁠​⁠@Ayushrider877Flip phones still are a thing too (not this new age stuff that they call flip phones, the old school ones I mean) and from what I know there’s TCL and Nokia. I don’t know about other carriers but on Straight Talk you could get either one of those for only $30

[@samyaknarwade9309]

Can I buy used one

[@wjffhfgj7045]

bro can i buy yours ? I will just sideload apps third-party instagram, reddit... I will make apps from AI to get one clients and try Remote desktop to use things 😂😂😂🎉🎉

[@IbySabu]

[@-Jaydeep-dt9yz]

Nokia lub❤

[@berzerker2866]

video started to get stupid when u ask people to swtich this phone w a new phone.

[@Sankew]

that was a joke

[@Ninja161pro]

Are u from Sri Lanka?

[@themidev-125]

Me

[@jayasuriyas2604]

I don't think so

[@SiriusV23]

I'm gonna say it, this is the worst phone idea ever, Windows on PC already have enough bugs and lacks of app update, why bother having on a phone, you're just asking for trouble.

[@shakibajaj_]

the most underrated channel😏🔥 i’m your biggest fan from that iphone 7 video…🥹♥️
