Released in 2010, Microsoft's Windows Phone operating system was the replacement of the aging stylus-powered Windows Mobile and an ambitious attempt to prove it could still have a spot in a smartphone landscape largely dominated by Android and iOS. In later years, however, the amount of technical catch-ups needed, the lack of sufficient manufacturer support, and a lack of developer interest leading to less apps being available, meant Windows Phone wasn't able to become a sustainable mobile platform it promised to be, and Microsoft eventually decided to wind down its development in 2017.

This category covers Windows Phone 7, Windows Phone 8, and Windows 10 Mobile, the former having the Windows CE architecture and the latter two having the Windows NT architecture.
