Would you use a Windows 11 phone?

In 2019, Microsoft ended Windows Phone support for devices running Windows 10 Mobile and Windows 10 Mobile Enterprise. A bit later, in 2020, the mobile operating system was discontinued as well. And so an era ended. Android and iOS remained leaders in the mobile phone market.

However, one wonders what a Windows 11 phone would look like. And more importantly, would it be used? And the answer is yes. Definitely, yes. A lot of users are nostalgic about Windows 10 mobile. And for good reason. It was an alternative to Android and iOS, and the design was something different.

Plus, you could easily sync your Windows mobile phone with your Windows devices. But there is good news. Well, at least somehow. It seems a lot of users are fascinated by the idea of a Windows 11 phone.

Not just how it would look, but more about how it would work. There are a lot of people that would love such a device, and maybe, just maybe, Microsoft could give it another try.

Would people use a Windows 11 smartphone?

There are a lot of people who would use a Windows 11 smartphone.

Every single day. Anything to break this boring android/iOS duopoly. Would’ve been nice to see diverse approaches to phone OS. I wish Blackberry and the Symbian OS had survived as well. Imagine what they’d churn out in 2023.

Yes, please. I dislike Android. My Windows phone was so much nicer to use. And live tiles are such an incredible improvement over widgets on android. And less waste of a space, because I have those app icons anyway.

Some people would love to see a Windows 11 Android version on a smartphone.

I’d be happy if Android let you sign on with a Microsoft 365 account instead of a Google one. Maybe a MS build for Android (that takes Google out of the picture) might be better.

And truth be told, that’s a very interesting point. However, Microsoft would be better off with its own Windows 11 version for mobiles. The Redmond-based tech giant could bring a lot of improvements to the current state of mobile operating systems, including Windows Copilot but fully-fledged for mobile settings.

There are a lot of people who wouldn’t see it work though.

No. I’ve invested into too many Microsoft phones and they always fall up short somehow, someway and then they abandon their devices too early in their product cycle.
