I’ve been using Lumia 950 dual ever since it came out. Could have bought latest Samsung or iPhone in no time. Main reason I’m still not doing it is that Windows 10’s interface is what I can only sick with. I went from Android and iOS to Windows, not the other way around. If Microsoft doesn’t put out a new decent phone this year or max next one, I’ll be forced to do something against my will – switch to Android cuz by then if there is no new model from Microsoft, we, diehard fans, will be left so far behind in terms of innovation and technology. And, that is a turning point.

I still use my 640 LTE, for the last 3 years and I still can’t imagine using anything else other than Windows 10 Mobile, though Windows 8.1 was decent. I love the interface. Like others, I will wait until this device (I have two just in case) doesn’t work anymore, holding out hopes Microsoft can pull an ace out of the proverbial rear. I believe that if they make an outstanding device, people will change their mind and apps will soon migrate to the Windows Store. Here’s to hoping.

Windows Lumia 950, they really need to put out a surface phone. They are in danger of losing their OS advantage on PC if they don’t.

Lost focus on the small form factor Windows appears to be affecting apps on regular Windows 10 now. Exceptionally poor insight by current Microsoft leader Satya Nadella.

I used to have Lumia 520, then Lumia 930 and now I have Lumia 950XL.
New apps in Iran are made for Android, but I’m going to keep my 950XL until it stops working! Hopefully a miracle happens until then.

I hope it is true. I had to abondon Lumia 950 due to hardware collapse and started Android phone, as advised by Microsoft. It is rather confusing experience. Specially from the point of view of its apps. Majority has annoying ads or are simply web apps. I always thought that good browser is better than apps.That’s the way to go. My only wish is that we finally see that Phone-like device from Microsoft, be it Surface Phone, Phold Phone, whatever, just please, equip it with interface which can be locked down, would not have spontaneously disappearing or moving tiles, which we could name, just as in Android. I hope as well to return to using Windows keyboard, which I see now, was better than anything else.

I have been a windows phone user for a decade,
I was upset to hear that MS pulled the plug from MS phones even when they swore they would not. I currently use HP Elite but I am seeing some hiccups in OS , I plan to change to Samsung Galaxy Note 9 when it comes out later this year, I am not looking forward to that, a new OS for one of the most important business devices I use in the day by day. If Surface appears before then, that will change my plans but I think MS is going to disappear from the hardware markets and just move into the clouds.

I for one will go back to a simple flip phone before I. Will go to ios or android. I’ve used android and it’s too buggy and too many freezes. Played with someone’s iPhone and totally hated the ios system, the way it functions, and its static hone screen. By far, windows 10 mobile has been the best. Since Microsoft has left me high and dry, I guess flip phone, here I come. ?

I’m a Windows phone user since wp7, my latest Lumia was a 925, an excellent piece of hardware, and now I’m using an Alcatel Idol 4 which is not so great, but at least I can keep using the best software for ? phones, which is wp10!!!
I hope that MS don’t let us, all the real core fans, fall in the disgrace to downgrade to iOS or Android. Fingers crossed ?

I have used Windows Phone 7, Windows Phone 8.1, Surface Pro (with Windows 8, 8.1, & 10), Surface Pro 3, and Surface Book i7, all of which I love, and I have no plans to switch to iOS or Android. The real problem is the commercial businesses that refuse to make versions of their apps for Windows 10 (or Windows 8/8.1 before that) or Windows Phone 8.1. Its kind of a Chicken – Egg scenario. I don’t know about everyone else, but as I Windows Phone 8.1 user, I get very frustrated hearing all the advertisements saying “Download our app at…” or “Use your mobile device to…” when what they really mean to say is “Use your iPhone or Android to…”

I am so hopeful that MS will follow thru with the long-rumored Surface Phone. Some major parts are there (Win10 on ARM, foldable screen), but OEMs have proven that they won’t produce smartphones for Windows, unless MS can first prove there is a market, and the Surface line is a proven winner in showcasing Windows technologies.
I am concerned that the Lumia 950s and 950XLs that we use across my company (and for my family) could require replacement before a new Windows smartphone is available, and some of us might have to downgrade to iOS or Android.
