Hey guys, I'm new here. Been a loyal iPhone user/buyer since day 1 of the very first iPhone. I think in Android and Microsoft there are finally competitors with products strong enough to pull me away from Apple. I use Windows PC's daily for work and play, for decades, and am excited at the prospect of having a phone that will not only integrate with everything I do on my PCs, but also have the same interface. For that reason, I am now considering buying a Windows phone. I'm also considering Android (The screen on the Galaxy S6 is jaw dropping), but I'm waiting to see what Microsoft has to say on Oct 6th. Obviously, given my reasoning above, I'd prefer to have a Windows phone rather than buy another alien OS... but I do have my concerns based on Windows Phone performance in the past.
I also use an iPad2 as a daily driver, and have an ancient Dell laptop that needed to be replaced 5 years ago, and am looking to replace them both with either an iPad pro or a Surface Pro. I'm a digital artist, so I'm hoping Microsoft blows me away with their pen tech on the Surface Pro 4's because otherwise I'm going to have to buy an iPad Pro and ruin my grand designs of one OS to rule them all.
Anyway, I'm posting all this just to say I'm excited for the Lumia 950 phones as I think they're very attractive and have several features that I am wicked excited for, in particular the super high resolution OLED screen, USB-C connector, 20MP camera, removable storage, and replaceable battery! The battery on my iPhone only holds a charge for about 6 hours, and it shuts off at 30% and there's nothing the 'geniuses' have been able to do about it.
I'm looking forward to handling one of the new Lumias at an MS store pretty soon and maybe finally making the big leap away from iOS.
