    Thanks cwhans2000. I knew I could save GIFs from online to the phone or Onedrive then addthem, however I was jut wondering if there was an app that provided immediate access to a selection of GIFs from within the app (ex: android text messaging apps, facebook messenger, etc.) As far as not all...

    GIF support in a W10M text messaging app?

    Out of curiosity, is there a text messaging app in the Windows Store that has GIF support baked in or links to a GIF datatbase? As far as I'm aware it's not on the regular messenger app. Any and all help with this would be truly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    Hey everyone. Side note question. Is there a text messaging app in the Windows Store that has Gif support or a link to a Gif datatbase baked into it. As far as I'm aware it's not on the regular messenger app. Just curious. Any and all help with this would be truly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    If you are an eBates member, you can also get 3.5% off cash back by linking to the MS store through their site.

    Thanks evilkingteapot! Are you able to comment on the app loading and responsiveness. Apps on my ATIV SE like FB Messenger take forever to load up. Also how is the camera?How is the sound out of the front speakers? What are your thoughts on the display? How bright is it? Thanks again!

    WOW, even Microsoft Store associates suggesting people buy Androids? The writing isn't just on the wall, it's in stone :( So sad. I was gung ho on getting an Elite X3 for Verizon but one can't help but feel deflated at this point.

    Awesome! Thank you sir! I might just get it to play around with to see if I like it enough to stay with W10M. If the camera was better, I probably would without hesitation. However, that and the ultra large size are making me hesitant. I'm coming from an ATIV SE and the Pixel 2 is almost the...

    Thanks for the update! I have a Pixel 2 in had right now charging. Debating whether I should pull the trigger. Do you know what the MicrosoftStore.com return policy is?

    One of the reasons I don't use any Google services at all for personal use. If forced to leave W10M, I'd probably go Android and disable all services except the bare minimum because Android seems to be better suited to allow most of Microsoft's services as default. I just can't bring myself to...

    Re: A New Verizon version of the HP Elite X3 is coming in November UPDATE from HP 10/19/17: Kevin, the Elite X3 rep from HP just emailed me this evening. His exact words: "I’ve been told Microsoft will make the Elite X3 available on 11/1 via their online store." So now it's a technically a...

    Geez Zac, who peed in your corn flakes this morning? Oh, well maybe that was me. My apologies for going personal on the age thing, it was uncalled for. But as for "already written about it coming to Verizon", my argument was (and still is) your coverage of it seems downright invisible compared...

    No they don't. And a senior editor saying there hasn't been any new news? This coming from a site that has a writer who has been writing the same mostly repetitious editorials about one quote the MS CEO said about mobile devices 9 months ago. Based on the Senior Editor's profile photo, I now...
