Most people are complaining that it's confusing and that they hate it, but if you just sit down for a while and play with it and get used to the OS (which doesn't actually take too long) you may like it even more than iOS or android
In this capacity, it functions about as good as any mobile phone I've used (I've used a number of Apple and Microsoft OS devices).
There are a lot more of the well used apps than when I originally looked into a Windows phone last summer, and more are becoming available by the day
and I just can't picture lugging something like that around as a PHONE - may as well use my retina iPad mini...
For me, that convenience makes up for the battery being used quicker
The live tiles are great to have the latest info at your fingertips
I love the live tiles, though I wish there was a way to hover over to know for sure which icon is what without having to click on it--that's only because I'm still learning though
I love the live tiles, the display is beautiful, viewing in bright light is amazing and puts all other phones to shame
The tiles are far more intuitive than either the iphone or Android
and I love the live tiles and the ability to totally customize my home
and I've worked with so many different operating systems I've lost count but half a dozen Unix variants, 3-4 Linux Variants, every version of Windows since 1.0, and the Apple OS.
Great screen size and the OS just gets better and better
Android is a great OS, tons of apps and a ton of phone choices
Windows 8 mobile is a far superior OS compared to the Android as far as ease of use
windows os is intuitive and fast and everything is large and don't have to spend time pecking small icons.
The Apple products are well built and run well but to me are just
This phone is so well built that you instantly fall in love with the quality
Pureview camera, great battery life, and solid build quality make this one of the best ways to get into Windows Phones and with support growing by the day for the platform the Icon is a great choice to jump in with.
build of the phone is a bit heavy/bulky (especially if you're coming from an iPhone)
The phone allows for one hand operation, has a great screen, is very fast, works very well browsing the internet, and the Lumia camera experience is exceptional.
Slightly larger than my HTC 8x, it has a vibrant screen, decent battery life (and I pound on this thing all day with apps - the few the Windows store offers - with stuff running in the background sucking battery life), and an awesome camera
Camera is quite good and features great, larger screen which is very clear and this made for a seamless switch
Great screen size and the OS just gets better and better
Also, one last gripe, and the most important, the battery, its HORRIBLE.
Slightly larger than my HTC 8x, it has a vibrant screen, decent battery life (and I pound on this thing all day with apps - the few the Windows store offers - with stuff running in the background sucking battery life), and an awesome camera
build Quality - Good Battery Life (wireless charging works great
And while the battery isn't replaceable, I've found that these Lumia phones (my moms 825 and my old 928) take a very long time before the battery life starts degrading, Most Lumias also have the option of wireless charging (built into this one) which removes the classic problem of having to plug and unplug every single time you use the phone at night
Pureview camera, great battery life, and solid build quality make this one of the best ways to get into Windows Phones and with support growing by the day for the platform the Icon is a great choice to jump in with.
I mean, I will REALLY miss the quality of the photos this phone takes
I can not forget the unbelievably great camera quality.
The screen is really good image quality, great for video streaming

The next bad thing about this would be that Verizon had been pushing this phone for awhile as their Windows flagship phone but was cut in a very short amount of time
Other things like having to go into settings, then into WIFI, to join a network is a pain, there should be a toggle switch somewhere for
If you keep that in mind, and appreciate the things that make a Windows phone unique, then you will learn to love this phone and operating system.
They also created several apps to do cool things with the images
The crazy thing is that the I6 has only been out a few months, the Icon came out on 2/20/14 and has a CPU that is twice as fast with twice the ram....and yes it is noticeable
For me, the lack of an expansion slot for an SD card or something isn't an issue.
The tiled menu interface is OK, i can get used to that but the lack of the apps in the app store is a real downer.
Had the 928..like this phone, but it is little heavy and also the camera is not as responsive as the 928.
The buttons are nice and the travel on them is as close to perfect as I can imagine
To me, the lack of games and flashlight apps were irrelevant though, because this is a phone that will be for making phone calls and doing work stuff instead of playing flappy bird
