930 Bad experience.

[Windows Central Question]

So I have had the 930 for a year now, immediately updated to W10 at the time. It got dust in front of the sensor so now people have to put down calls for me, it randomly restarts, spotify often hangs on loading, and whatsapp often just glitches and does not receive or send messages for ten minutes, creating weird conversation situations where my messages will take off late in the middle of group conversations. Also the speaker sometimes sounds like the phone wants me to kill it fast so it does not suffer.

After having had a 3310, 6600, N80, N97, N8, 920 I am sorely disappointed this time. I always took the lack of apps with a shrug, the maps made up for it, and the sturdiness too but now I'm pissed. I know I can fix the dust by opening it, but resetting and various tools did not fix the other issues. I don't know if the phone is a dud, if W10 is still crap or what, but I'm tired of seeing it.

Unfortunately ios and android both disgust me. So, I am wondering between a used cheap 1520 or a 950xl. I'm not inclined to drop the money on the 950XL since Microsoft seems to uncertain on if its going to really back the os at this point, but I also don't really want to remain far behind. I don't game on the device however, at all, ever.

Are my issues a one of a kind aside from the dust, and would the 1520 (which I wanted in the first place) put me in a good mood again, or would the 950 fix them, or am I just screwed.

Thanks

Did you tried a full hard reset? All 930 forum users are pretty happy with last win10 vers. (on 16th Redstone will be released).
Only annoing app is as always Whatsapp (not a MS app), despite their updates, we cover them with negative feedbacks for kiking their developers
And abut dust in front of sensor, only arepair laboratory (even a cheap one) could peel off glass and clean it without damage
