    [Real Users] My Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Review

    Picked up the M3/4GB/128GB SP4 at Best Buy in December for $699 (including the signature keyboard cover). Had to buy a pen, which happened to be on sale also. So far, I am very happy with it. I have a game laptop that I use for that purpose and for video editing. I use the SP4 every night...

    Would you still buy a L950?

    With the cheaper prices, I picked up a L950 and a dock. Win10 is definitely smoother now, and the continuum feature is pretty slick. I like to work in all technologies because of my job, so I have an iPhone/iPad for work, and I switch between a L950 and an Axon7 for Windows/Android. I...

    Will we see any type of extreme discounts with these coming to an end?

    I had a 950 a long time ago and sold it. Took advantage of the slightly higher cost of $12.07 per month through AT&T to be able to trade in next January. Also picked up the HD500 dock for $59.00. That will let me mess with the 950 again with continuum for a cheap price per month. I have an...

    Does the 950 NOT Charge Via USB?

    I bought the following charger off Amazon. Works great and has an extra USB connection: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018MRYW5G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1&t=wpcentral00-20&tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUwpUvbUpU3500053

    Avoid 14361 on the Lumia 950

    I'm honestly shocked how well its running on my Lumia 950 (just received phone last week). Went from Preview Release to Slow Ring to Fast Ring and with each step things have continued to work. Tried going to the Fast Ring once I received it last week and much wasn't working. Went back to...

    Verizon and 950?

    Re: Verizon and 950 WOW! 260GB of data, I don't blame you for not wanting to leave Verizon. We recently switched to AT&T because we have DirecTV and I was getting tired of Verizon. Our signal for AT&T in our area is incredible, and it works great with the 950 I picked up off eBay. Honestly...

    Loving the 950

    I have to agree. Picked up an L950 on eBay (had the Icon, and lately the 928 just to play with). Phone is really nice, WM10 works pretty well (better than previous experiences). Gives me hope for the future.

    I went ahead and installed Windows 10 on my HTC One M8 - Any questions?

    Double-tap to wake is working with build 10581. Surprised the crap out of me when I tried it! :-)

    Build 10512 Thread

    Overall, I think 10512 is working much better with the Band then on 10166. I am getting notifications for both my email accounts, texts.

    Is the HTC One M8 on Verizon a good choice at this point?

    I really like my M8. 2GB of RAM, plus the storage and expansion have been great (I have a 64GB SD card installed). Fast in 8.1 and runs good with the preview build 10512 of Win10M (outside of the nagging issues). Screen is great, feels good in the hand as well (I did purchase a case for...

    Build 10512 Thread

    Installed 10512 last week on my HTC One M8 (Windows). Had the same upgrade experiencing having to go to 10166 then 10512. Did a hard reset after playing around with it for a while. Overall experience has been good, better than with 10166. Same nagging issues remain that I encountered before...

    Build 10512 Thread

    I had to re-run the Windows Insider app, select fast ring (didn't require a restart) and then it allowed me to start the download of 10512. Weird.

    W10M Insider Bugs & Defects Thread (pre 10586.164)

    Re: BUILD 10166 : BUGS Thread For the heck of it, I powered the phone off and back on, and now I can rotate the screen and see the settings. Overall, I like 10166 but will be glad if they eliminate (hopefully) the little glitches.

    W10M Insider Bugs & Defects Thread (pre 10586.164)

    Re: BUILD 10166 : BUGS Thread I think the soft buttons on my HTC One M8 are hiding that menu on 10166, unfortunately, I can't hide it or rotate to see the bottom gear :-(

    If Win10 Mobile now only receives polish and bug fixes, will you upgrade from 8.1 when 10 is out?

    I would say yes. I do like the changes that have been made to the OS, and further bug fixes will be good enough for me to stay with it. I know that there will be ongoing improvements over time, so anything else added will be great.

    W10M Insider Bugs & Defects Thread (pre 10586.164)

    Re: BUILD 10166 : BUGS Thread I went ahead and re-downloaded 10166, did the hard reset, and set it up as a new phone like I did the first time and now everything appears to be working fine (other than what everyone else has mentioned). Go figure!!

    Re: BUILD 10166 : BUGS Thread I ran into some strange things on my HTC One M8 while sending/receiving texts. Even though I select the right contact, it shows the text thread taking place with the next contact down on the list. It does get to the correct recipient, however. When they reply...

    Save me from going iPhone? Future of Windows phone, etc.

    I use a lot of different tech in my personal and professional life. That includes a Macbook Pro at home, a Lenovo Carbon X1 at work, an iPad Air2 for home and work, and until Friday an iPhone 6. I moved from a Lumia Icon to the iPhone 6 last year primarily due to the apps and what I thought...

    WPRT - How long does it normally take to flash the image?

    Ok thanks. I was able to power off, power back on, go through the process again and it appears to be working normally. Whew! Thanks for the information. :-)
