Hey, I'm glad you're liking the WP. Honestly, I think WP should be great. That said.... Android phones are starting to get into this territory too. OnePlus 2 is $400. That is 4x the cost of your $100. But it is less than half the cost of my $1000 Note 2. (I don't buy on contract because I have a grandfather plan on VZ for unlimited data). My wife's phone was $700. Next refresh in about 2 years we'll be in the OnePlus store. The reason I say all of this is that we should all, across every platform but Apple, be looking forward to getting less expensive, higher quality devices.

I'm hoping that Android gets a lot better on the battery usage before that happens in earnest though. I've read they've focused on this recently but I haven't had time to drill into details. I love Windows Phone and have had 3 different models since Windows Phone 7. I'm currently on a Lumia 830 for my private phone and get about 3.5-4 days of battery life. Granted I don't call/text a lot relying on email, Lync and Skype. My previous Lumia 520 was about the same, and the previous LG E900 was 2.5-3 days. My partner has a Moto G (1st Generation) and loves it but only gets about 1-1.5 days of battery life. Good phone, similar price levels after offers on the Lumia 830, but dramatically lower battery life.
