If u never tried any OS, and WP was ur first.. u wud like it. My guess is, u're so used to iOS and android's UI, u tried WP and immediately went "wth is this UI, tiles? no folders? no icons? so plain Black background, cannot custom ringtones etc.." (like what my wifey said)

I have all three OSes on 3 diff devices, and each has its own pros/cons. WP probably in short, uses basic specs (512mb) ram yet performance still smooth. (e.g. pls tell me how well does Asphalt 8 runs with 512mb on android)
iPhone 5S.. well, apps galore. Note 3, big screen.. playstore? well, be careful of viruses/malware etc.

But yeah, I do get that 'boring/confused' expression when frens come n play my lumia 1020..
