am from Kenya and anyone buying windows phone is my enemy 😛
I’m from Nigeria, who will buy it with the very low spec? Windows sucks.
I’m from Cameroon. I was at their showroom yesterday, people are actually buying the windows phone. I’m not a fan of windows but i think basic users will like that simple tiled windows phone UI.
