Microsoft's hard ware business is a side business. Good article Jason. Enterprise? You're sad now but believe me, once you move to a stable and stress free phone you'll be happy.

Thats not to diminish the fact that Windows Phone itself needs all the developer attention it can muster. When I was entrenched in the ecosystem, my phone and my pc worked so well together. And while all that is going on I'm also going to invest massively in windows on arm, VR, AR, AI, cloud and everything else I think is important.

I'm actually considering holding my nose and going to Apple in the hope of finding some systemic consistency. Too late. It is sticking to the same game that Microsoft already lost. MS has very deliberately started funneling their fans to other platforms this past week and it's very upsetting because I truly love and enjoy Windows Mobile and have used a variation of it for the past 10+ years. They wouldnt let Tmobile, Sprint and Verizon have a foothold on the devices. Apple sells that many in 6 months, and Apple is #2. But in general it was a culmination of stupid moves at that time. The kids are seeing a daily dose of Apple and Chrome. Whether or not Microsoft want to admit it was their own decision to give up when in fact they had a growing market with thanks to the Nokia team.

But this is still sad to see. Now how will Microsoft stay relevant when the majority of the users dock their powerful Iphones or Android phones to a docking station and uses big scrrens and use Office software made by Apple or Goodle android. Well, I started getting angry with Mr. Softy when they screwed over we Surface RT owners. And i have owned an 830 and then a 950xl since Not true. Watch on. That is just one long term aspect. If Microsoft fail to get a smart phone into the market within the next 5 years and gain market shares then that is it for Microsoft. "How long are you going to string your users along this time?" Strengths and Weaknesses are often restricted to company's internal - resources, skills and limitations. Wiith The HP Elite x3 smart phone going to be discontinued and the Microsoft Lumia 950 and 950xl gone what does Microsoft have nothing something is better than nothing. This was the straw that broke the camel's back and I very much doubt they'll be relevant at all, in the consumer space, in a few years time. Nadella Satya can use strengths to create niche positioning in the market, can strive to reduce & remove weaknesses so that it can better compete with competitors, look out to leverage opportunities provided by industry structure, regulations and other development in external environment, and finally make provisions and develop strategies to mitigate threats that can undermine the business model of Nadella Satya. Everything MS tries ends in failure.. So Nutella just let down windows phone to focus on developping a bunch of Skype bots that nobody talk with? My phone and PC no longer communicate the way they used to. I will never trust Microsoft again in the mobile area. It seems entertainment and software are what Microsoft can handle (and precariously, at best, if you consider their bungled XBOX messaging over the years). As you rightly point out, Jason, "eradicating" Windows phones and their ngegative perception was paramount to "hitting refresh". Nadella is a strong CEO pick, but his job will be industrial strength. In this (WinPhone) case, hitting refresh is a good thing imo. Even in AR and AI MS is posed to fail! Nuttela's Puffer-in-Chief LOL. I also felt pretty betrayed owning am Xbox One original.

It is easy to show leadership when you have all the information, when the systems work in harmony, and the plan for the future is laid out for you. Without that key influx of new devices, Windows 8.xs store is all gussied up with no one to dance with. There should be no tears shed for a company that does not need the consumers! Falling growth is anathema to such dotage. I hardly read Windows Central anymore either as the notifications are ***** on Android. Every professional is consumer but not every consumer is professional who builds, design something. However, with OneCore/CShell, where Windows 10 can scale up or down, depending on form factor, a developer, developing UWP apps for Windows 10 desktops/laptops, simply will add the extra lines of code necessary for Windows 10 to scale down to a smaller form factor, such as might be presented by a phablet/voice enabled device (or even the rumoured Andromeda device). The only thing wrong with Windows Mobile was that MS did not commit to developing the OS and decided that MS did not need the consumers anymore. It's all good in their bank account for now. Very cheap, but fun to use! Weaknesses. Why would I ever take the chance on a new Microsoft product when they could dump it like they have before. The idea of AI, Mixed Reality, cloud computing, bodes very well for the companies who have mobile, pocket sized devices to leverage. How can MS kill its own future? Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's Plan To Unlock 'Trillions Of Dollars' In One of the most amusing and disturbing anecdotes that Satya Nadella likes to tell about himself is this one, which hes repeated several times now. How will Microsoft stay relevant? You don't even have to say "hey Cortana", so, there's that. But the mere cost of Surface revenue was more than the revenue itself, meaning that the larger Surface loss for the period was much larger than you might think. Microsoft did the same thing. Both Google and Apple have AR that people can use right now in their pockets! Congratulations, you got lucky. It's happening right under our nose and in 2 years all tabloids will say hey we did not see that coming.. God I hope you'r right! I am confident they have something truly amazing in the pipeline (presumably 2019). But "enterprises" are made up of employees who are also "consumers." Remove that potential of growth and you lose your major developer incentive. According to Satya Nadella, a key attribute of a leader is to step into a situation where the future is uncertain and create clarity for the business and the people. And yeah, Europe has long ceased to be the center of the universe. Without a mobile platform of their own their future is limited if not over. He needs plenty of energy and motivation to face his busy day. BTW, if your two Band-2 devices were working properly when you decided to leave the Microsoft ecosystem, how much would you sell them for?. Who will buy MS product except company who use Office and cloud. They don't expect any big features. He didn't want to have purchased Nokia and it was his intention to crater the whole enterprise. How long before Movies and TV go? I think with the news of the demise of windows phone and groove are the pivotal sign, that consumer focus is traded for strictly business oriented investment (whatever that means). Any good "global survey experts" on this thread? I"ve been abandoned with every MS product I've ever bought into: WinCE PDAs and phones, Win 8, 8.1, Zune, Surface RT, both the Band 1 and Band 2, Groove (Spotify sucks on my MS 950 and my Surface Pro 3). What apps they wanted to run with it while they were changing SDK with every mobile Windows iteration. If he'd have done the same thing with PCs that he did with phones, we wouldn't even be talking about Microsoft anymore.

". How about that time Microsoft took you out to than new club called Microsoft Music -you were dazzled by the iTunes competitor and so, why not invest in a few songs. why microsoft could not do it? What Microsoft lost is more than a windows mobile customer. I have no doubt Microsoft will be successful long-term, but Nadella is morphing the Microsoft DNA completely away from consumer-facing products & services, and probably also away from front-end Enterprise products & services, concentrating strictly on cloud-base services and back-end infrastructure at the internet level.
