| Bottom line | Windows Phone 8 is absolutely worth using, especially if you enjoy a simpler, bolder interface. However, if you need a robust app selection now, stick with the more fully formed
Android and iOS. | Microsoft makes an aggressive, forward-thinking, and bold statement for the future of PCs with
Windows 8, and vast security and speed improvements more than justify the $40 upgrade price. | You won't be left too far behind without it, but
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is a worthy update that brings improved voice search, notifications, and sharing. |
