I can honestly answer this question in a one liner.. “ its all down to speed and ease of use” and I’ll explain what I mean by this.

Feature rich Mobile OS

Where to begin?! You won’t need to find ‘an app for that’ as the OS does it

• Facebook / Twitter / Linked In / Windows Live – Are all baked into the OS with features that you can use straight away, no need to install anything, just add your username and password for each service on the first startup of your phone and your setup

(Photos to facebook, updating messages or reading and replying to friends messages)

• Bing Vision – It’s a one stop shop for anything you see, Like Google Goggles on the Android or an app on iPhone that translates text, It can scan QR codes and keeps a history of each scan, this isn’t a button push thing, the moment the QR code is pointed at its automatically decrypted and logged to history, It scans barcodes to find local shops with stock or perform a price comparison.

• Local Scout – Find numbers for local business’s, take-aways, restaurant’s, plumbers, etc, without using an app, just use your voice! You can even ask for directions to the business and the Maps will take over.

• Bing Music – Its like Shazam, if your phone can hear it, you can find it and buy it within a few seconds.

• Hubs – Picture / Me / People / Games, These are places that have saved me hours of my life, within a single click into the respective hub you can ‘at a glance’ bring yourself upto date with the things that mean the most to you

• Live Tiles – Your homepage has a feature that I that saves you precious time, by displaying the new information on a rotating tile that updates itself on the fly, showing number of new articles, emails, texts, phone calls, voicemails, etc, etc, etc.

• Maps – Bing maps or Nokia Maps (depending on model) for directions on foot or Nokia Drive (pre-loaded to Lumia handsets) for driving with turn-by-turn directions,

• Marketplace – Like iPhone & Android marketplace, your one stop location for over 50,000 useful apps (*no number bumping crApps you might see on other marketplaces) from Last.FM, Wikipedia, an amazing Xbox Companion app that controls your 360 over xbox live! and of course our own 1800PocketPC app from Cris Rowlands

In conclusion…
