Windows Phone technology introduction:
Windws phone is a mobile phone platform operating system developed by Microsoft. It is another powerful operating system after the windows mobile operating system. The windows mobile operating system is mainly for enterprise applications, and the current usage in the market has been declining. To improve performance, Microsoft has made great efforts to develop the WP system, which is mainly used for entertainment or applications. Currently, there are not many mobile phone manufacturers on the market, such as HTC, Nokia, sumsang, and ZTE.
The WP operating system is less hardware-dependent than the Android system. In the dual-core quad-core environment of Android, the WP system runs smoothly and responds quickly. The uniform resolution of 800*480 is a good news for developers. Although the screen size may be large, it is still monotonous for users. Although there are not many companies developing WP software, I am still optimistic about it.
