Best Windows Phones

The best phones powered by Microsoft's Windows Phone platform

Microsoft may be struggling to compete with Apple and Google when it comes to mobile operating systems, but in Windows Phone the company has an elegant, smooth and functional OS that is often under appreciated.

Windows Phones may lack some features compared to rival smartphones, but there is no doubting the usefulness and ease of use of Microsoft's OS.

We round-up the best Windows Phones on the market, from budget options like Samsung's Omnia W, to the powerhouse, flagship Nokia Lumia 900.

Nokia Lumia 900

The Nokia Lumia 900 is without a doubt the best Windows Phone device on the market. We love the superb design and build, the excellent performance and the slick look and feel of the Windows Phone OS. However, the Lumia 900 has a number of flaws that detract from its overall appeal when compared directly against its competition.
