    Switching platforms? | Thinking of leaving?...comment here!

    I sold my iPhone 6Plus and grabbed a 950XL to give W10M a go after trialling on a 640XL and liking it. But now I'm finding I'm going to my iPad more than my phone to do things. I've got a Surface 3 as well, and when I got it I didn't use my iPad at all, as I still had my iPhone. I don't carry my...

    Detect phone as removable USB in OSX El-Capitan?

    I'm thinking it's the USB-C driver that's missing, so the phone can't be seen by the app. Hopefully that'll be addressed soon, or Apple will be dicks and not support it at all.

    Detect phone as removable USB in OSX El-Capitan?

    I'm going to transfer music to my Surface 3 and put it on the phone from there. Only reason I hadn't done it before is the Surface isn't set up yet so I can't use it (waiting for internet to be connected in new house). I was hoping I could just connect the phone to my mac and use the windows...

    Detect phone as removable USB in OSX El-Capitan?

    I'm in the same boat, interested to know how to get things going between the two.

    AUSTRALIANS: Lumia 950 XL/ Lumia 950 Waiting Game/ 1st Impression/ Review/ roblems

    No problem. Beats the stupid US spelling corrections too. A few people on the Whirlpool forums are saying they've got it, but have had to do hard resets to get it. I'm not starting over just yet for the sake of a keyboard. No update for me yet either.

    AUSTRALIANS: Lumia 950 XL/ Lumia 950 Waiting Game/ 1st Impression/ Review/ roblems

    Hold the pound symbol and you get a menu with other options, including the $. I'll give the US keyboard/UK language a go. This has been a problem for months now with the AU keyboard, you'd think it would have been sorted by now.

    Free Display Dock via the Lumia Offers app on 950 XL?

    Bought mine outright yesterday. Updated the offers app and opened it, nothing. Says to keep checking for upcoming offers. So on top of high prices, Australia misses the goodies as well. Unless you went with Optus and scored the free Xbox.

    [Quick Impressions] Who Just Got The Lumia 950 XL?

    Picked mine up yesterday. No squeaks from the back cover, for now at least. Coming from an iPhone 6+ I actually like the feel of it. I don't care that it's not metal, it feels good in the hand to me, doesn't feel cheap, like the Galaxy S2 to 5 all do IMO. It doesn't feel slippery like the 6+, so...

    AUSTRALIANS: Lumia 950 XL/ Lumia 950 Waiting Game/ 1st Impression/ Review/ roblems

    Picked one up from Harvey Norman yesterday, only one in Newcastle (for them) according to their inventory. I've got limited net access and data allowance at the moment so it's not set up how I want it just yet, but it's enough for me to use. Still have a lot of updates to do as well. From the...

    [Expired] Free Xbox 1 (1tb) with 950 or 950XL from Optus [Australia]

    Yet the so called best carrier in the country, Telstra, have no info on their plans and pricing, let alone pre ordering. A shame I need to stick with them for coverage, otherwise I'd go the Optus deal. I can't see it happening, but hopefully the plans are on par with Optus, or not too far above...

    What color is everyone getting?

    White, and no case to hide it.

    Lumia 950/XL pulled from MS Store?

    I haven't done the numbers closely myself, but the discussions on Whirlpool sounded about right to me. That is a fair difference if it works out how you say. But, what can we do, pay the price, wait and hope retailers take some off, or hold out until prices start to come down, however long that...

    Lumia 950/XL pulled from MS Store?

    Might be waiting a while for the dollar to pick up. There's been a discussion on Whirlpool about the price and when you take into account th conversion rate (thanks crappy dollar), tax (not included in the US price), and things like logistics to get the phones here (Oz), the price isn't too far...

    Any one else considering moving from OS X to Win 10?

    Mine is just the Surface 3. Went for a cheaper option to see how it was and how I felt about it and the OS. I like it a lot. Maybe in the next 6-12 months I might look at a Pro 4, or even wait for it's successor and get one of those. No problem with the 3 that I've come across so far, but for...

    Any one else considering moving from OS X to Win 10?

    I've done it. Bought a Mac mini about 3 years ago after my windows 7 laptop went south. It's been good, nothing magical or extra special IMO, but with the Xbox One I decided to look at windows again, mainly for the game streaming capability, which works great. Picked up a Surface 3, updated to...
