Roughly the same experience here. I still get more application crashes (wherein the application simply closes and needs to be restarted) than I did with WP 8 and 8.1. However, most apps that exhibit this behavior are holdovers that weren't refreshed for Windows 10 Mobile, such as the Podcasts app. And while app crashes are annoying, the OS is fine and the application restarts quickly enough.

That said, I remain a user who isn't interested in the latest trendy apps. I don't feel an urge to play Pokemon Go (although I find the phenomenon hilariously awesome). For the basics—web browsing, e-mail, text messaging, maps, calendaring—Windows 10 Mobile is great.

Continuum—the feature that converts the phone into a "regular" computer—is quite nice, although I don't use it much since I have more than enough computers already.

I am hopeful that a Surface Phone will eventually arrive and make Continuum more compelling. I could get into the idea of carrying a lightweight keyboard/display thing instead of a laptop. The HP Elite x3 already works this way.

Overall, I remain a bigger fan of Windows Mobile than I was of Android or iOS before that. When I use a modern Android device, Android feels sterile and clunky; meanwhile modern iOS feels too little evolved since iOS 1.

> battery drained in ~6 hours

So, parity with Android then? (I kid, I kid....kinda.)

My Galaxy Note 2 still has a battery life of about a week, still running on the original battery. I just need to remember to enable Wifi only on when needed, or it'll drain the battery in two days.

Actually in my experience, leaving Wifi on saves the battery, compared to telco network. Wifi seems to be more power-efficient than 3G or LTE.

Of course, if you want a week on the battery, you must have data off, both wifi and mobile.
