What’s the takeaway here? Well from the looks at it, these are flagship phones on par with the most powerful handsets you’re going to see from the top phones from Samsung, and Google’s Nexus phones. The displays are the same and so are the chipsets. Like other leaders, Microsoft’s adopted the USB Type-C connector.

In Nokia phones, the PureView cameras were a real differentiation. The technology was so good that it made phones running the vastly inferior Windows Phone platform competitive. Microsoft is retaining its focus here with a dedicated camera button.

So in case it wasn’t obvious, the important question here is whether Windows 10 works as a smartphone platform. Microsoft has been the first tech giant to truly embrace the convergence mobile and desktop operating systems.

During the demos today, Microsoft took pains to emphasize the strengths of its ecosystem, and the potential it has to work across platforms. The coolest part was the demo of universal Office apps running off Lumia phones. Do you want to use your phone to power a PowerPoint deck or a Word file on a huge Display? Don’t you?!?! Have you ever wanted anything more in your life? Well you can!
