Forget the specs, my dream windows phone would run apps. It would have actual, useful and desirable apps in the store.

Update I went to the local MS store yesterday as a last ditch effort. My phone is several months out of warranty so i wasn't too hopeful but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. After 10 minutes I walked out with a new 950xl. It was that easy. The employees were knowledgeable and helpful...

I can tell you why I used to enjoy Windows Phone and why I don't so much anymore. The UI is superior. I've used everything else and hands down WP wins the UI contest to this day. If I was going to pick a phone where I just look at the UI all day and don't actually attempt to use it I would...

You can't talk to MS either. They've handed off support to B2X. If you have a problem with b2x there is no way to talk to me about it. I spent two days trying to find a way to contact me about it...cant be done. Every single number or link related to Lumia eventually takes you to b2x...

Good luck. W10M Compatible, that's pretty good. You're funny.

I looked into it more later. MS contracted out support of the Lumia line to a company called B2X. It's supposed to be "seamless" which really just means they will never say they're not Microsoft and their website matches the look of MS. If you go to MS and start a support chat you'll find...

I can assure that I'm not lying. I don't have that much free time. As far as moving on, I am. I failed to realize until just recently that all MS support for Lumia goes to a third party called B2X now. Microsoft has essentially completely disowned the Lumia. I'm out. Forget I said...

My functionality comment was more based on stuff not freezing/closing randomly, sorry for the ambiguity. I don't bother using iris recognition anymore since late last year . The camera app has been randomly freezing after about every 3rd or 4th photo (not taken rapidly, sometimes hours apart)...

Same here. You're not alone.

I'd be happy if they would just stop breaking stuff that works with each update. I would swear it was a conspiracy to get me to buy the new model except there is no new model, so I guess it's just reckless incompetence.

What software?

I'd be content if they would just stop breaking what's left at this point.

I feel completely.ripped off at this point. I was all in on the whole Microsoft ecosystem. Not anymore. There is no advantage to holding on to my 950xl at this point other than to just be stubborn and tell people I'm not using android or an iDevice. I'm at a stage where I want stuff to work...

Microsoft sold the 950 series phone as a flagship at flagship prices then promptly trashed it. Those of us with these phones essentially have no advantage over a cheap android phone with the exception of continuum, which isn't exactly a killer app for a lot of people. Microsoft promised the...

I'm ready to start a class action lawsuit over the treatment of the Lumia line shortly after releasing the flagship 950 series. Are you interested in joining?

The Lumia line is junk now. You're better off trying to use MS apps on other vendor platforms at this point. MS sold us all nice expensive phones and then scrapped them. I'm considering getting a class action lawsuit going over it. Their "updates" are actually breaking the phones worse and...

I've had all sorts of issues with mine. It's become embarrassing to use it in front of people with the latest phones by other vendors. Every update makes it worse. Ove done hard and soft resets in addition to involuntary daily reboots. I tried tech support today to see what my options were...

That is beyond ridiculous. I don't care if we're talking about your preferred phone OS or a spatula. If someone comes in and wants to buy something (or has an order to pick up) there is no reason or excuse for a salesperson to step in your way. That is rude and it should not be tolerated...

My wife and I went into a VZW corporate store to buy the M8 and Icon (I'm the Icon person). We weren't browsing or on the fence about what we wanted, we wanted to pick up the phones and go as quickly as possible. When the rep asked us what he could do for us we told him we wanted the phones...
