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

    I have been using a Galaxy S7, more and more, but I still prefer my Lumia 640. It's just easier to make calls and to text on. Also has a better antenna. I have trouble at my job using any apps or trying to email compared to my Windows phone. One step calling, easy voice messaging or type...

    I'm standing my ground, and sticking with Windows Mobile.

    I tried to stay with Windows phone, I came to the party late and was impressed with Windows Mobile 10, but over the 2 years I used first Windows Mobile 8 and 8.1 and finally 10, I could see that the apps were dying out. Some came back but many left and now I am stuck with my Galaxy S7. I am...

    Windows Phone Is Dead Beyond Resurrection

    Its funny when the iPhone came out in 2007 apps were not even a consideration really. Then they took on a life of their own. I can comfortably work with my Windows phone with the lack of apps for the most part. I can still access my credit union through a saved tile that all I have to do is tap...

    For Windows 10 Mobile users (What are you doing with your current device?)

    I still use my Lumia 640 along with my Galaxy S7. There are just some things that still work better on Windows phones. It is easier to text and easier to use in the car.

    Windows Phone Is Dead Beyond Resurrection

    In other words, Microsoft should pack it in and tell Google that they are now the new OS for home users and Microsoft just bow out of the tech business.

    For Windows 10 Mobile users (What are you doing with your current device?)

    Weird thing is my chromebook is messing up when I try and come to the forums on this site. I had to go on my Windows PC to add this comment. I have a Lumia 640 and I have been switching back and forth between it and a Samsung Galaxy S7, recently I started using Tap to Pay on my S7 and it may...

    Microsoft Wallet Tap to Pay?

    I have a Lumia 640 so it won't work with Tap to Pay. I really just started using it on my Galaxy S7 and have to say I really think this could cause me to stop using my 640. Plus I also just used the Walmart Pay app which is not available in the Microsoft Store. Its really a shame. I prefer my...

    What if there won't be any windows mobile devices?

    I think that Microsoft stock would drop and Microsoft would start losing customers who have wanted a complete solution. Microsoft can be a big winner if they can come up with a phone that will dock up and to a docking station and become a full-fledged computer. It would be cool if it could...

    What's your DREAM Windows Phone look like?

    It would be waterproof, have a fingerprint reader, be able to run Android apps, but maintain its tile style.

    iPhone to block incoming texts while driving.

    so Windows phone has had that feature for a while and it replies with a message that you are driving or you can have the text message read to you and you have the option to reply back by voice

    What if there won't be any windows mobile devices?

    if there was not a windows mobile device like a Windows phone, it would be just a matter of time before the desktop or laptop market would be affected. Android will soon have Chromebooks that will run apps. It would not take much to have Chromebooks take the place of Windows 10 laptops.

    Microsoft silent on windows mobile future

    It seems like Microsoft has given up on Windows Phone. It is such a shame. I still am actively using my Lumia 640 along with my Galaxy S7. I still love some of the features on the Windows phone. The way I can get my text messages read to me and have the choice of responding back with my voice. I...

    Am I wasting my time?

    I still love using my inexpensive Lumia 640. I can't get reception in my office when I try to use my Samsung Galaxy S7. Sure there are way more apps available on Android, but what good is it if the phone can't access them and I can access the important ones with my windows phone. I can listen to...

    Which phone should i get?

    I consider myself an app junkie, but when it comes to my Lumia 640 or my Galaxy S7, I always end up choosing the 640 as my daily driver. Sure the Galaxy S7 has tons more apps. I can pretty much find an app for anything on my S7. There are some definite advantages over the 640. But one phone...

    Share your W10M Start Screens and Backgrounds!

    I truly enjoy using my Lumia640. Every time I try using my Galaxy S7, I can't believe how much easier things are done on my Windows 10 Mobile. Plus my battery is not depleted by the end of the day like it is on the Galaxy S7. I try and try and get used to using it, but I quickly switch my sim...
