It is funny to me that they gave up on the Windows phone right when it was starting to actually kinda work and gain some market traction.

It was literally during an era where people were leaving iphone in droves (begrudgingly) for android. Windows phones could have easily stolen a ton of marketshare from Samsung and Google.
