Any Continuum travel dock will work fine. I tested a V-Tin model with a USB port, HDMI port, and charging pass-through and everything operates as expected.

The ARM version of 1809 is available as an ISO through the Volume Licensing Service Center. I'm going to try to install it as an upgrade on an Envy x2. I'm not sure if Microsoft is going to make it available to consumers outside of the VLSC.

I'd really like a high resolution touch external monitor that's no bigger than 22" or 23" to use as an external display for a Surface. I wouldn't have mismatched scaling settings on each display and the size would be in the same ballpark. The only ones I've ever seen start at 27" and are...

I've been messing around with one for the last couple of weeks. It's the cheapest phone Verizon sells on the government contract these days and they come unlocked, so you can use it on any carrier. The camera is very good, white balance is way better than the Lumia, but shots still aren't as...

It's sad to see I'm going to have to switch platforms. It's clear major apps will drop support at some point soon and the phone will be useless. I haven't yet found a phone or OS that will work for all my requirements, but what will get closest? 1. Camera at least as good as a 950 2. Camera...

If everything on the phone worked perfectly, I'd be happy. But there are so many times when it's just not working right, especially the camera, which is the main draw. I know it's not mine since my wife has the exact same Lumia 950 and we have the exact same issues.... - Turn it on and it...

The absolute worst is when it tries to put "It's" into the middle of a sentence when I want to type "its." How does a bug like that even get introduced? Why does it force me to use the wrong word grammatically? Why does it capitalize a word in the middle of the sentence? It's incredibly frustrating.

I've found this to be the case as well, especially with the Mozo cover. I've found the perfect spot to be with the bottom edge of the phone lined up with the edge of the charging pad housing the LED.

I'll second that. I had a problem with a Surface Pro charger and I brought it into the store. They swapped it out immediately and sent me on my way. These stores are probably looked at as advertising for Microsoft, so they bend over backwards to give you good service there.

My notifications just started working again. And my Facebook Messenger notifications, which were hit and miss, seem to be working correctly again. Maybe this was an issue with Microsoft's push notification servers.

I've never received any notifications from MSN Sports. One really weird thing is that Cortana refuses to give me notifications for the Red Sox. I've subscribed for everyone else from the AL East and that works, but I never get anything for the Red Sox games. It would have been nice if MLB just...

They stopped working for me recently, too. I emailed their support and never heard back from them. It must be an ESPN problem since the notifications for other apps seem to work fine.

I upgraded from a 1020 to 950 and it's better in almost every way. The camera is a downgrade in taking pictures of still objects. It's just not that sharp and doesn't focus as well as it should. But regular pictures almost always come out (or can be taken at all) since the camera is so much...

Why? During the week of the buy one get one free deal, you had an alternative to paying $400 for a single phone, but now there's no better offer out there. It's possible there will be a glut of slightly used phones if people who took advantage of the deal find they don't want to keep it.

They wouldn't let me stack the student discount or the 920 trade-in for the BYGO deal at the Boston Microsoft store. I bought the 950 29 days ago with the $100 discount, so I was able to "return" that and get an additional 950xl for $200. I was going to give it to my wife to replace her aging...
