Why shouldn't I drop Windows Phone

I have used Windows phones since they first came out. In the first instance because it was new and second because it wasn't Android or iPhone. Metro and even 8.1 were great operating systems that were fast on low and medium cost phones. It never crashed and worked just about faultlessly for 2.5 - 3 years. Then along came 10. This has been my bug bear. It is slow, appears more complex, and buggy. The earphones, music, calls thing just doesn't work. I have had to re-install 10 several times to get it working again and even then not 100%. Email is buggy and slow too. Apps crash more regularly so much so that I can't see any reason to stick with it. The lack of Apps isn't a reason for me to leave the operating system. The phone has everything I need and other actions can be done via the browser if needed. I've tried to give it as many chances as I can but the experience is now painful on my 650. So if anyone can give me a good reason to stay I'd really like to be convinced - you'll be pushing on an open door.....otherwise I feel that Microsoft is losing the battle hand over fist at the moment.
