Mary Jo Foley drops Windows Phone for Android
Like other folks in the smartphone world, ZDNet's Microsoft reporter Mary Jo Foley has dropped her Windows Phone after trying Android. Foley states that "The robust notifications on Android have weaned me from my Live Tile dependence. And don't let anyone fool you: The cameras on both the 5X and 6P take really great photos, especially in low light. I find the camera app on Android much easier and dependable than the Microsoft or Nokia ones I used on my Icon."
