Did I miss something?

It may have been mentioned, but I don't recall hearing it. Were these two phones any good at being a phone? I mean, like actually talking to someone?

Poor battery life. I see, battery too small, system too power hungry, I understand the iPhone suffers from this too. Who needs function when phones look this good.

I have decided (before watching this, but you have confirmed my decision) that my next phone will NOT be Windows based. Ever since my current Windows mobile device crashed on me as someone was trying to ring me. I am now looking around for a replacement, any suggestions?
