This is probably the number one competitor to Whatsapp, which is exiting all Windows phone support at the end of 2019.

a proper Telegram client, in 'Unigram'.

access to a working Store again for 2020 and beyond.

On the other hand, for the cognoscenti who decide to go all in on Windows 10 Mobile, even on such old hardware, there are some upsides, having: So sustainable in the short term, but not very satisfactory in the long term. Is it conceivable that a Lumia 1020 owner might just opt to stay on 8.1 and stick with currently installed applications and damn the presence of a Store? Well, yes, but it's a fragile arrangement in that if the phone ever gets factory reset (troubleshooting, selling, etc.) then there's literally no way to bring applications back. That's far too much for Microsoft to even think of allowing the transition.

Battery life won't be great, as W10M is hungrier in terms of power than 8.1.

Potentially another showstopper for some? (I know there's a very geeky registry hack to re-enable it, but that's outside the scope of even AAWP!)

Glance screen is gone, since all the registry keys that the older phone hardware need are moved competely for Redstone.

Brightness is stuck on 'Auto' - not a huge deal, since most people leave it on this anyway, but.

You can't always use the camera in Skype UWP - the camera hardware is usually somehow locked to other camera applications, even if not running still.Losing HERE Maps/Drive and with a cosmetically crippled Windows 10 Maps as a 'replacement'.Losing stereo audio capture (this is huge).For the record, taking the 1020 'up' has the disadvantages of: I've been asked privately whether Microsoft could be persuaded to officially add the 1020 to the official Windows 10 Mobile compatibility list, but this won't happen - effectively downgrading the capabilities of the hardware just isn't something that could be allowed for regular users.
