content: The two times I touched a windows phone I wanted to eliminate all life on the planet as a form of compassion.  With a little less hyperbole, I feel much the same way about Android. My mother in law has a Windows Phone and supporting her has been super easy.  If she has a question about how to do something, I just tell her and she says "Oh! That was easy, I wonder why I didn't think of trying that." and the problem is solved. My Dad and brothers (Dad worked on rocket guidance systems, brothers are Computer Scientists) seem to... have a lot of problems with their devices.  The supposedly awesome Google Play store is packed full of so many crap knock-off apps that it's often hard to find legitimate apps from major vendors.  The devices have clunky interfaces, they seem slow, and it takes them a long time to complete simple tasks. The thing that blows my mind the most is Cortana vs. Siri vs. Google Now.  Just about everyone I know with WP uses Cortana tens of times a day - and I've found that this only has gone up with Windows 10.  My iOS and Android owning friends and family NEVER seem to use Siri or Google Now (with the exception of people I knew who had Glass).  What's with that?  I've read articles saying that Siri or Google Now are "better" but if that's the case, why don't people use it more? It's especially funny when I use Cortana while out with friends and someone with Siri or Google Now tries to "race me".  Cortana seems to work better in noisy environments, it seems faster, and it seems to have a richer experience whereas the competitors results often just show search results if they understood the question at all.
