Windows RT has been designed specially for ARM architecture based Systems such as Tablets and Windows Phone. What is to be noticed here is Windows RT does not support Typical Windows Program. Users cannot install any third party application on Windows RT based Tablet or Phone.
In contrary to that, you can download and install Apps available on Windows Store only. Additionally, Windows RT provide better battery support, which can turnout to be an advantage for users. Before you think of replacing your ios or Android phone with Windows RT based phone, I would say think twice again. It is not worth a sacrifice.
