Windows may be the operating system of choice for most PC users, but it’s a different story for mobile devices. Even people like myself who refuse to install anything on their computer aside from Windows, I could never see myself getting a Windows Phone, so what mobile operating system should we use? Well, as Paul Thurrott explains, an iPhone is probably the best choice for Windows users, better than Android and even Windows Phone.

Just a few years ago, there was a sharp divide between fans of Microsoft and fans of the iPhone. But in this “mobile first, cloud first” world, it’s now possible to combine Apple’s iPhone hardware with Microsoft’s best-in-breed productivity apps and not feel terrible about yourself. Things really have changed, and for the better. And if you are a Microsoft guy, there are good reasons to choose iPhone over Android … and even over Windows Phone. Microsoft mobile apps generally appear on iPhone before they do so elsewhere, and certain Microsoft mobile apps are only available on iPhone, at least for now. In several cases, you will see finished Microsoft apps appear on iPhone, whereas Android receives a rougher preview release instead. In many ways, iPhone—or iOS more generally—is the place to be if you’re interested in Microsoft’s mobile solutions.
