    Back in my Lumia!

    Yeah, I noticed that one of my weather apps, Amazing Weather HD, is going to shut down on March 17, 2017. It's a shame.

    Back in my Lumia!

    After quite a while using my Galaxy S7 edge, I got bored again. I'm back to WP and my 925! The phone still works peefectly. I found out that I only use a few apps at all in either Android or WP, so I think I can remain in the WP ecosystem for a while. The phone using experience feels new again!

    Well well, I'm actually writing this from my 925! Let's see how long this affair lasts...

    Back to the Future

    It's been a while since I switched my 925 to a Galaxy S7 edge. Obviously, the Galaxy is way better in all respects, but I still miss the simple and intuitive feel of WP. My 925 had W10M the last time I used it, and found that the battery didn't last long. This past weekend I reverted back to...

    is the 950 a threat to the S7

    I started using WP when the 920 came out. I returned my month-old HTC One X (wonderful phone) to try something new. I next bought a Lumia 1520, a 520, a 640, a 1020, and two 925s. I held my ground and stayed with MS even as times changed and WP where left back by new, shiny phones from Apple and...

    L925 is not suited for W10M

    At least for me, running 8.1 is way better than 10. Even some new apps are too much for the S4 processor.

    L925 is not suited for W10M

    Updated to W10 several times, but the battery life is much worse than when running W8.1. I am resigned that if I want the best overall experience with my 925, I need to stay with W8.1.

    Installing W10M facebook app

    I noticed that after installing the W10M facebook app, the phone does not let me uninstall the old app. How I can delete it?

    Who's got build 10581? How's it working for you?

    I few builds ago, i felt very concerned about the performance of W10 in my 1520. The last two builds, however, have been working great for me. No battery drain, good performance.

    Are you planning to get a 950?

    Well, the OP asked if I was planning to get a 950, so I gave my answer, and why. My response was a complete statement, so what was the mistake here?

    Are you planning to get a 950?

    Daniel Rubino's words, not mine: "Microsoft Continuum for the phone is easily one of the most interesting aspects of the new Lumias. However, being able to run Universal Windows Apps on a large display means you are carrying a Windows RT device around with you. Granted, in Windows 10 the UWA...

    Are you planning to get a 950?

    The 950/950XL are the last remnants of the Nokia heritage before MS comes out with a true Win10 phone. If I don't plan to use my phone as a PC because I actually have a laptop (like almost everybody), then this generation of phones does not offer anything compelling for me. I will wait for an...

    Are you planning to get a 950?

    Because it's still ARM. It can't run x86 executables, like a full Win tablet. Even with Continuum, it won't be a full PC, because it can only run Universal apps. Just like WinRT. When they create a phone with an Intel x86 processor, then it will be a full PC when connected to Continuum.

    Are you planning to get a 950?

    No. The 950 is like WindowsRT for phones.
