    Could Windows Phone 9 have saved Windows Phone?

    I don't think so. Microsoft and there marketing strategy, would ensure the same outcome happened.

    Switching platforms? | Thinking of leaving?...comment here!

    Re: Goodbye Windows Mobile I preordered the xl, I like windows and Microsoft products, but they always just seem to randomly give up. Zune, windows phones, band, music service. all great devices that would of done better if they marketed them right. surprise the xbox is still a thing.

    Windows phone is done. What's the next daily driver?

    battery isn't the issue. its getting slower to open what few apps I have. some don't open at all.it also randomly force closes. there is no point in keeping the phone if Microsoft is not supporting it anymore.

    A dark day

    Microsoft needs to rethink how they market devices. they are bad at it. been this way since the zune in my opinion. they have great devices but either they don't promote the product very much, or like the phones they cut 1/2 there consumers out, by limiting the phones availability to one or...

    ill think ill give Microsoft till the end of the year to say something, or show something. then ill probably switch if nothing happens with windows phone.

    Pictures + Videos Taken With My HP Elite X3

    That might be the camera app for windows. The icon is a 20mp camera but you can only shoot a 16mp jpeg image or a 5mp jpeg or 5mp jpeg + 16 MP dng image, you can't select for a 20mp image.

    Camera Settings

    As long as we are on a camera settings topic, what happened to the settings with wp10, can only chose 16mp instead of 20. And no 4k?

    Will an "unlocked" 950XL work on Verizon?

    The bands for CDMA are not activated in the 950xl How many phones use voice over lte on Verizon, That are not Verizon branded phones? don't think theres that many. sorry but this phone isn't going to be any different. I'm not happy with Verizon lack of care for windows either, but this phone is...

    Will an "unlocked" 950XL work on Verizon?

    It will not work on Verizon. Even with an already active sim, the phone can't connect to the network, I believe people have tried using a Verizon sim in the demo units. If you took it to Verizon they would probably turn you away. From what I heard is that Verizon has to add it on there end so...

    Buy 950 XL now or wait for Surface phone and take the 550 in between?

    Well business may of been the wrong word, but if the so called specs that are out there are somewhat true, with it being and Intel based phone, 64gb+ with Expandable storage, full HD screen, 20+mp camera, 4gb ram, pen support, basically a surface book the size of a phone. Might be priced higher...
