Did you use Windows Phone or a phone running Windows Mobile?

There were very few Windows Phone devices. Windows Mobile, however, had a bunch. It was a PDA operating system that pre-dated iOS, Android, and Blackberry. It was a competitor to PalmOS.

Both? Pretty sure I had this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_Lumia_520

Looks like it ran the mobile version of Windows 8.
