    Is the HTC One M8 for just .01 cent worth it?

    Re: HTC One M8 for Just .01 The HTC One M8 has dropped to ~$300 in the NYC area new on Craigslist. I'm not sure I'd engage in a contract considering even the $300 difference.

    ATT Lumia 635 for $40 at Best Buy

    I'm an Android guy and honestly will not use such a phone until Windows Mobile is of the same caliber. However, I am very impressed with this phone and WinMo. The Lumias seem very durable vs. say my flimsy LG G2 (2 screen replacements) or the LG G3. Note however that these AT&T GoPhones DO WORK...

    Why do so many people say WP is good for first smartphones?

    Based on experimenting with family members and friends, WP is the easier to learn. The UI is very clean, minimalist and focusing on readability. iOS is a close 2nd, and Android is the most difficult. (due to the wide range of customization depending on manufacturer)

    Black Friday of January sales for an Xbox one and possibly a phone

    I'm not sure how many people here are from the UK as they would be able to confirm if this is a good deal. However, where is this deal for 299?

    Battery life better than expected.

    Silly Q but has the battery endurance improved after 10 or so charge cycles?

    Why is Windows better than Android?

    Windows is not better than Android in any way. However Windows mobile may be: - More straightforward, simpler, easier to use - More readable due to the simplicity of the OS and apps

    Lumia 1520.3 or UNLOCKED AT&T 1520

    Be careful that since AT&T also finances phones now..you may buy a phone and find out 3-4 months later that AT&T blacklisted it forever. I had this issue with T-Mobile.

    Lumia's reply to my tweet regarding Denim Rollout.

    Basically they don't know. That's the canned way to state that as probably a good amount of people ask this daily.

    Anandtech reviews Lumia 830...

    It would be interesting to see 'durability' become a more serious review effort. I bet Lumia's would do very well there vs. these flimsy Android phones.

    Carriers, MS and Billboards.

    I don't think Microsoft is profiting from Windows Mobile yet. It's still relatively a gamble for them..

    Lumia 520 for $29.99

    Excellent Deal. However the Nokia 635 for AT&T is $40 on Amazon and other places. That is probably a better offer. Keep in mind that locked AT&T GoPhones usually work on their prepaid providers such as H2O Wireless, NET10, Black Wireless, etc. This is a list of AT&T's resellers: AT&T Prepaid...

    Where are the deals? T-Mobile needs to compete with the $99 ATT 520

    You can use the $99 Nokia 520 on T-Mobile as well. Or therefore any of the prepaid resellers under these 2 networks.

    Buying Lumia 520 at Amazon

    This is a great phone for the price. Compared to the other Android 2.x prepaid phones, this is the "cutting-edge." It will work on any prepaid service operating on AT&T or T-Mobile.
