One question, when it asks, "My __ is an extension of __," what does that mean?

It's where your supposed to substitute the blank for either "PC" or "Phone". You can only put in one in the sentence.

So an example would be "My Phone is an extension of my PC".

Yes, but what is it asking? Would it mean that my PC is more important if my phone is an extension of my PC?

Basically, is your Phone there to complement your PC (you consider your PC your main machine/devoice) or is the PC there to complement your Phone (You consider your Phone to be your main device).

I'd love to see windows phones be able to run the full desktop OS experience.  (My android phone has a higher screen resolution (2560x1440) than my desktop & laptop's displays - each 1920x1080.)

 

Maybe on like a $700-800 or so phone or tablet, you could play Witcher 3, DOOM (2016), Rise of the Tomb Raider, etc, at a constant 144+fps 1440p, 100+fps ultrawide 1440p or 60+fps 2880p with everything cranked?

 

Also having desktop-grade performance & storage (not including desktop manual OC) would be nice - for example a high-end phone like that if available today would match an i7-6800K & GTX 1080 in Cinebench & Firestrike, and have like 128 GB RAM & 10 TB storage on a single internal storage device.

 

For those with too much money to spend, they could buy one that would match 8 Xeon E7-8890 v4s, 24 TB RAM, as many Tesla GP100s as work in SLI (with the remainder being like 4TB Intel DC P3608 SSDs in RAID0, etc.

 

Maybe a large phone / tablet could even have a couple PCIe x16 slots, a couple DDR4 slots, and an LGA2011-3 socket or equivalent?

 

For now, though, I'm pretty much content with my LG G4.

Yep, Windows Phone: 0% entertainment.

 

Because there are zero fucking apps. I need to get an Android.

That was primarily because of 2 reasons actually. 1) Only 3 people with Windows Phones entered a response to the survey.

2) Entertainment is usually not their main priority.

Windows Phones are getting better with Apps. I've seen a dramatic attitude change since I started using them over a year ago. App developers are more open to Windows Phones than they were and it is now considered more important than it used to be. More companies are making apps for Windows Phones.

 

Basically don't leave because it's only gonna get better.

I responded to it so eh.

 

Well that one question and answer. For me it's often the secondary device if I don't see a reason to bring my laptop, then yeah it becomes more of my secondary device. My PS4 is somewhat important to me since it's better at gaming than this A8 6410 based laptop. I have a Nexus 7 (2012) but I barely use it because it's old. When it was newer, I used it far more often. I think I would sometimes supplement the laptop with it.

 

I really liked liked my Moto G 2014, and so far I'm actually kinda loving my Galaxy S6. I mean it's not stock Android, but they changed the color palette with the Marshmallow update to something less flashy and better looking, and I just use the Google Now launcher on there and it's all good. I mean stock Android like CM13 would be nice but Touchwiz with the Google Now Launcher on Android M is just fine.

 

If I'm not mistaken, Ubuntu Phone can technically do that docking thing or PC convergence that Windows phone can do. Granted there's not many phones running Ubuntu Phone and it's not Windows you're getting but I think that's to be expected.

Its been so long since I did this, I don't even remember what I answered.

[kaiju_wars]

I put in my answers, do with them what you will.

[dcb-z]

This will be interesting once you've got a decent sample size.

This is a bit funny tbh

My most important phone is my LG C800, old-ass thing but imo the perfect phone.

Insane battery life (up to 5 days, usually 3-4 days), android (CM9) and a full-size physical keyboard.

 

Thing is i mainly use my moto G because it can do a lot of things very well and i can easily use it as my daily, but i don't want to.

But i can go through a day easily without the moto G, but not without the LG. 

 

Oh well i did the survey
