Microsoft pokes fun of the fanboys in new Windows Phone advert

If the Lumia 920 would be a mojor improvement versus my Note II,it would be interesting.......but for now,I still prefer my Samsung.

 

They're not ones to be laughing and poking fun at anyone right at this time. Why does this feel like a Ballmer-inspired move?

 

I think a gutsy/controversial move on their part is important. They're going up against two competitors who are firmly entrenched in the market. They need to go after Apple & Samsung like Apple went after Microsoft in the early 2000s.

 

I tried the Lumia 920 in different cell phone carrier shops. Did not like it.
Even after using Android for so long i still find WP8 very boring.

 

Microsoft trying to take on Apple and Samsung (iOS and Android) reminds me of the VHS and HD/Blue-Ray battle. Even though Betamax was a superior format, VHS reached critical mass and the battle was over. HD/Blue-Ray followed the same path. A Windows 8 phone may be better in some respects but trying to break into the Apple/Samsung world is going to be a tough nut to crack. But, like the Xbox, Microsoft can afford lose money and wait it out. Only time will tell.
