    4 years ago, Microsoft thought dual-screen devices were the future

    I didn't mind being a Guinea pig for their ideas. Made things fun even if awkward at times. It's great that they are profitable, it's just not very fun for the consumers. Sold all my $Msft stock the day Panos left lol

    Windows Phones in 2020

    you probably figured it out by now, but yes, outlook app can be used to sync contacts. In the google contacts app just change your source default to like all sources or something.

    May Duo Update issues (rotate and keyboard)

    I haven't seen your issue yet, but I do have occasional lockups. I can't interact with my apps but can manage the lock screen. Sometimes waiting fixes itself, I just reboot

    Streaming wirelessly from PC to TV - how easy is it?

    A HDMI cable to your TV is the best bet. If you really want wireless, then you'll need a Microsoft Wireless Display adapter or maybe a chrome cast From your PC you can click on the notifications section to see the quick action button Connect If you don't, find it in settings. Then you can...

    Windows Phones in 2020

    My mom was fine with other windows phones I gave her until the Alcatel 4s, seemed like she had to reach out to me quite often to help her with phone I gave her a lumia 950 when that one freed up and was stable again :) Now I have her on iPhone. We needed Whatsapp!

    Surface 3 2 gb very slow

    Not the same ram but my 4gb S3 is on version 2004 now, my kid uses it zoom meetings, teams meetings, roblox (just enough juice for most games he plays)

    Is Windows 10 in S-mode identified differently in version 2004?

    I installed version 2004 on my arm tablet (Lenovo Miix630) It was my kids computer and kept it in smode on purpose. I decided to reset the computer after installing version 2004. Now the in S mode moniker is gone. Wondering if this is to be expected or did I inadvertently update my device...

    It was growth of Chinese phones around 2014-2015 which killed Windows Phones

    I miss using a windows phone. SwiftKey on Android or iOS still doesn't work as well as it did for me on my windows phones. I've been using SwiftKey on iOS for 3 years and Android for 6 months I have maybe a few more apps and still have like 50+ tabs open in edge on my phone lol

    Surface Neo tech already behind?

    I have my work issued laptop for main work... and currently trying to use a note10 as well. I don't have a light duty device yet... My surface pro3 is not quite the right fit not is the miix630 I have. I'm not sure I'm looking to replace my note10 just yet.

    Android Instability

    Does anyone else's Note 10 for any unexplained reason suddenly have max volume set? No idea how it happens. And all the volume sliders are annoying Now my wife complaining her Nokia 7 plus is crashing often over night, liked the reliability of her lumia 950 much more (she's been on android...

    Surface Neo tech already behind?

    I feel more interested in the Neo than the Duo, for supplementing my workflow. Leave my laptop at my desk for a meeting, bring the Neo with the thought it's less in the way in a meeting room, less distracting for others, can help me continue to check on things at a lighter duty pace while in a...

    Hmm I'm one month into Android and my outlook contacts are not on the phone anymore, contact syncing is on, my email is fine in outlook, what gives? Outlook issue or android? I'm not sure but contacts syncing shouldn't be a big deal

    Android Instability

    My last stretch with windows mobile dec31, 2019 I found to be a pretty stable stretch. I was out an instagram app but going ok with 3rd party Winsta app. Whatsapp caused me some issue with long refresh time but that was the only issue. I guess I should expect "OOB" apps to be solid. Edge was...
