I owned two! One died after several years of service, so I bought another, then MS dropped support a few months after I bought it with Windows Phone 8/7.5 and I never bought another one again.
It is was an awesome OS that Google tried really hard to strangle to death.
A phone shop managed to palm one off on my FIL around the same time MS threw in the towel. He was using it until last Christmas when we got him a replacement due to it not having LTE and the 3g signal being switched off in the UK last month.
When I say he used it, I mean he could make and receive calls, and could read (but not send) texts. The lack of app support never bothered him because he never needed a smartphone in the first place. We got him a flip phone with physical keyboard and VoLTE.
I had to use the WP a bit while dealing with the network to get a new 4g SIM and the UI, while alien, was surprisingly snappy for such an old device.
I’ve seen like, one Windows phone in my life.
