    How's security on Android?

    I completely agree with Nausky above. Android is closely resembling the full Windows, security wise. If you use it in logical reasons, then you have nothing to worry about. Much like with your PC. And if you operate in logical reasons, don't install those miracle apps offering "2086% battery...

    Plenty Wrong with Windows 10 Mobile

    The infinite scrolling and width changing contextual menus (lists) were stated as a bug from Gabe Aul on build 10166 (or so) Well, in 4 months from now, I'm betting that most of the UI which is all over the place right now, will be in the exact same position!

    The overpriced misconception

    The meaning of flagship phones: On top of the line phones priced above 500 euros, the buyer wants to have the best possible experience of today, both software and hardware wise. So when he is planning to spent this kind of money on a phone, he compares the offerings. (and always unbiased in...

    Trust me! Google app in windows phone is awesome

    Nope. This is a pretty nice search app actually, which opens instantly! Basically, if you live outside those countries where bing is usable, this is the best choice. The voice search is actually on par with the experience on Android. This means that I can speak in my native language and...

    From wp to android

    I'm 100% happy with the motoG3. No regrets in the slightest. Everything work like clockwork. One of the best thing I enjoy on this device is battery life, 6.30-7.30 hours of screen on time is right where my limits are as a human being of being able to stare at a screen! :P Firefox (also uc...

    Moto G3 vs Lumia 640/650-Which should I go for?

    I second what manus31 said above. I also haven't got any problem with the moto G coming from a Lumia 730. Also the battery life is top notch (6+ hours easily of screen on time, with medium to heavy use) Front firing speaker and some useful gestures with the moto assist: For example, you can...

    Grass isn't greener on the other side

    Moto G 3rd gen here. (99.8% Stock android) For me the only things !MISSING! on android is Mytube and readit/ baconit. Call me however you want but those apps are the bees knees and no, I don't prejudge the other apps on the playstore, but I've tried and can't find a decent app for reddit and...

    Closing apps running in the background??

    Ok, I'm gonna be THAT guy and point out that not closing the apps on W10m is actually better. (Disclaimer: 4 year Android guy and diagnosed with close-all-apps-syndrome) I did the same from the first day I bought my first WP till one week ago. After really pushing myself NOT to close the apps...

    Does anyone care about seeing an official "8 tracks" UWP app for Windows10 & mobile

    I'm curious to know if I'm the only person on Windows 10 mobile (and desktop) that would LOVE to see the official 8 tracks UWP app.. Currently there are 4 third-party apps on the windows 10 mobile store, they are all WP8-8.1 apps and only 2 of them work on W10m while only one is actually worth...

    is Battery life supposed to be this bad?

    All the above don't have to do with the device itself. They are Windows 10 mobile bugs. I have exactly the same problems on a 730. Give the OS some time if you have the strength to do so. They will fix them! (sometime) And no, your device is not faulty, the OS is faulty :P

    Build 10586.36 battery consumption/ start screen fluidity? (compared to .29)

    Second full day with build 10586.36 on my lovely but underpowered Lumia 730 and I'm seeing a substantial increase in battery life compared to .29 More specifically, while using the phone the battery seems to hold the charge way better than the previews build and also the battery indication is...

    730 screen blink issue

    Yep, it is apparent here on a 730. Quiet annoying (and scary) when using the phone at night! At random instances the whole screen "blinks" either white, or black. It lasts for a fraction of a second and happens 100% randomly while using the phone. It was apparent on WP8.1 and also on W10m...

    W10M started rollout in Europe?

    I saw a Microsoft Lumia 640 demo unit with W10 on one of the biggest stores in Greece and I don't think that any of the employees would have enrolled the insider program because at the label of the device it wrote "MICROSOFT LUMIA" as it was the only Lumia in the world, so I don't think that...

    My silly thinking about continuum on lower priced devices..

    From the first phone I ever had, I was never interested to own the bleeding edge of tech (aka costing an arm and a leg). I always bought devices which were reasonably priced/ bang for the buck, partly because I knew that phones become obsolete like nothing else (well maybe e-cigs hold the crown...

    GSMarena great 950XL review

    Great neutral review. This is how GSMarena has built it's reputation all this year.. I remember visiting their site from the s60 days (oh and when motorola razr came out) :P But I have a question on one thing he said and wrote.. When on continuum, universal apps don't have a right button...

    W10M on Lumia735

    You will see a negative impact in battery life (with almost no apps set to run on background), I remember the good ol' days (WP8.1) when the battery lasted about 24 hours under the same usage as I put it through now on W10m. Now it lasts for about 12-16 hours (aka usually dies on the end of...
