Welcome. I converted in 2015 when the writing was on the wall with Windows Phone. I still miss it but I'm enjoying this strange, wild ride known as Android.

Welcome. I converted last 2016 Black Friday. I guess I was holding on to hope a little more than @garak0410, lol, but glad I made the switch. I don't buy every new phone that comes out; I have a Galaxy S7, so I'll help you where I can.

The moment for me was when it was verified that Verizon would not get the 950xl. I've mainly been on the Galaxy Note series of phones but used the Pixel XL and Moto Z Force Droid during the Note 7 recall. Currently have a Note 8.

I used to be ALL in on Microsoft Ecosystem: Windows, Windows Phone, Outlook.com services, Zune/XBOX Music/Groove, Microsoft BAND, Windows Media Center, Office 365. But I've moved on to a mix of Microsoft, Amazon, Google and I use Plex as my media server.

We sound very similar. I was all in on Windows too. All the way back to the first Zune 30, then Zune HD, HTC Trophy and others as well as the Band 1 & 2 and a multitude of services. If MS had the partners on board like Google and Apple, and if Verizon supported WP, I'd still be there. But, I'm also quite happy now.

Welcome to Android Central.

I've been using Android since 2015. I'm currently using an LG V20, but I used a 2013 Moto X and a 2015 Moto X Pure Edition previously.

The selfie camera is outstanding!
+ Love the display! Prefers OLED though...

The design is beautiful, not as sexy as Lumia phones for sure.

I definitely understand. As someone who was always consumed by exams during exam season, you can't really afford any big big distractions. Come find us when you can!

So glad the camera, display, and hardware are to your liking!

Hello and welcome. Converted to Note 8 from 950XL myself on Black Friday and couldn't be happier with Android. Like a breath of fresh air.
