Microsoft earlier announced that the company will be ending support for Windows 10 Mobile on 10th December 2019. After that, Windows 10 Mobile users won’t be receiving updates, patches and hotfixes for the OS. Microsoft is recommending users to switch to a different OS to ensure they are not left vulnerable after the End of Support for Windows 10 Mobile.
To help you with this transition, we curated a list of alternatives that you could pick up as a replacement to your good old Windows 10 Mobile. The list includes both Android and iOS since those are the dominating ecosystems after the demise of Windows 10 Mobile. We will be starting from budget phones and will be making our way to the flagships from both Android and iOS.
We have tried to pick up all the unlocked phones, so the prices don’t differ drastically based on carriers. You might be able score better deals from your carrier. Moreover, with Christmas coming, we do expect these prices to drop so keep an eye out on a better deal. We also didn’t include Huawei in the mix due to the ongoing trade dispute between Huawei and the US government.
With the end of support for Windows 10 Mobiles, Windows Phone as an OS is official dead. I think we all can agree that it’s an end of an era. Rest in Peace Windows 10 Mobile. We barely knew ye.
