    MAC on ARM vs Windows on ARM

    The reality of things is that the Surface Pro X provide an excellent experience. The problem in my opinion is the same as electric cars. Electric cars were never able to get the attention despite being reasonable in real world environment, with a affordable price. It took Tesla with its reverse...

    MAC on ARM vs Windows on ARM

    This was the plans for Apple since many years. Microsoft is completely new at this. Apple ARM chips are crazy more powerful compared to the best that is available outside of Apple, and that is Qualcomm. Qualcomm turned into Intel, basically. They became the top Android chip maker, and started to...

    Lumia 950/XL still the best Camera in 2018?

    What I don't understanding is why phone manufactures are so disconnected and mostly non-innovative. What I mean is that innovation exists, but limited. Mostly it is rushed to market Apple copied features, some select Chinese manufacture does innovate like full screen phones, and finger print...

    Lumia 950/XL still the best Camera in 2018?

    Stability issue on Lumia 950/950XL is due to old battery. The battery can't deliver a stable voltage anymore, and the OS is not doing like iPhones where it slows down its processor (SoC) to not require anymore as much voltage as initial. So the phone act funny and crashes. The fix is to get a...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    I just bought a new battery for my Lumia 950XL, but i am just waiting for next year Android phone and I'll be switching. Rear cameras on premium phones have surpassed the Lumia 950 series to a level I am happy with, and by that time Android should have Dark theme support, and finally have, in my...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    The problem with Android is that each phone has essentially its own OS. What I mean, is that while all Android phones are, well Android, from the end user perspective, each phone manufacture does it's own interface, keyboard, Settings panel, etc. And even if you get phone with the so call "Stock...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    I am waiting for Android to have Dark theme, so that Android finally joins 2010, and then I'll get myself Samsung Galaxy S10 or some other premium phone, which I hope it will FINALLY have a rear camera that noticeably better than the Lumia 950 series, and install Microsoft Launcher and such to...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    I hope you are wrong. The reason why I have hope is that the Surface Hub 2 is also delayed due to Andromeda. And the Surface Hub was actually selling like hot cake. We have the big one at work, and everyone at the office (which predominantly Linux developers) are seriously impressed by it. So...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    Still like my Lumia 950 XL. To be honest, I had an Android phone before that phone was released, and I never ended up using apps. I use my phone for calling, streaming music (in the car, but owning a Honda, running Android, I see people managing to unlock it and install Android apps), GPS, SMS...

    Jason Ward uses Windows phone (for now) and asks why do you?

    Still use mine, and still funny that it still manages to get update while already getting 1 year of actual support on Android is winning the jackpot (ie: You got a Google phone, or it just happened that the phone you bought sold like hot cakes for the manufacture to care, AND you have the...

    Lumia 950/XL still the best Camera in 2018?

    Very close, both have ups and down. I mean eventually the Lumia 950 (XL) will be defeated at a notable level (probably next gen), but still impressive that it still competitive today.

    Worried about Battery Aging

    Normally I would say it is an issue, but Microsoft uses really high quality batteries. That said, if you plan to have the system functional with some battery life after 10 years, than don't expect that. But you should have ~80% of its original capacity after 4 years. Microsoft does offer a...

    It's now "2018" with music gone from the MSFT Store how are buying your music?

    Huh? Spotify SDK are pretty much JSON or XML, with links to images and music. Why do you think you have several third party Spotify apps on Android? There are no limitations to frameworks or programming languages. If someone is dedicated enough they can make an alternate player. Microsoft has a...
