++ the future of Microsoft Lumia mobile phones ++

• you can learn from critics, but some Microsoft Lumia devices are working really well, have the best user interface, competitive security, stellar integration with Windows PCs. Of course it is annoying when you do not get what you want from a purchased device (but that thing it was true also for flagships of the competition that were slowing down or have had overheating issues or security issues). Outlook will recover (in its really weak days sometimes the synchronization process occurred with great delays, but it works really well now - if it crashes then restart it, even the best F1 engines crash sometimes )

++ I have seen recently some pictures of the MS CEO with an android device & it was not a perfect match & if he is honest to himself, he can say that he has had better //

+++ yes maybe if this community has had the support of the Visual Studio Community then fewer problems were left unanswered.

Your rambling answers are always flawed: Microsoft doesn't want mobile. They have failed completely. Its not just that I approve of the market leader, Android, I adore it. It works, bottom line. Look at this community. How many of these people spent good money on devices, only to be out and out lied to from Microsoft? 

Look at Windows 10. Can we find a stable build and stick with it? Release another build, fix 1 thing cause 4 more issues. Its just terrible. Office? Same thing. Outlook.com should be an embarrassment to Microsoft. But they don't care. I suspect that if everyone who bought a Microsoft product knew of this site used it, this site would crash due to traffic.

• when I used to watch NBA games inevitably have seen teams in a transformation process & fans that are enjoying this transformation process even though their team struggles with the results // so the key is to enjoy this process of rebuilding & relaunching & to observe the full part of the bottle // another example : there was a very pessimistic future for Buick cars & now they are competitive // transformation processes are possible & Microsoft is a great high-tech company // you have to enjoy the competition & not just approve unconditionally the market leaders //

Small steps? How about no steps. Its done. Put a fork in it. Windows 10 is a mess, desktop and whatever Mobile is (i suspect its to make sure no lawsuits). No apps. No hardware equals no OS.

• there has been the sad direction by the majority of the leadership team to abandon actively promoting the platform (an exception is the case of Groove Music, which is native on Windows 10 mobile & it will be retired on the other platforms ; another exception is that fluent design has made its way to Win10mobile on some native UWP apps, so at least we can have an idea of how it looks like) & at that conference this direction had been visible. If the management team changes its mind they need to come back with small steps, because blockbuster entries have lost their credibility. //  

++ the mail synchronization issues have been solved in my case by one of the bigger updates & if these are not working then the only possibility is to check the mail through the browser. //
