    Microsoft Reportedly Testing New Phone With New Windows Mobile OS

    Reboot to what? Another iteration of Windows? Since the introduction of the iOS, the rise of Android and the fall of Windows Mobile/Phone, the message is clear: nobody wants Windows on a mobile device. If MS is planning to reboot its mobile OS platform, it should go to something non-Windows...

    Just got my lumia 950 xl, love WP 10! Why is WP having a hard time?

    Microsoft and Apple are both ancient companies, but Apple had the chance to rebirth from its ashes. Not the same with Microsoft. The company itself and most of their brands (specially Windows), are perceived as outdated and boring. MS will NOT be able sell a smartphone that runs "Windows" (CE...

    I think the problem is that MS was expecting people to get Windows Phones just by pure magic. Nokia was the only one actually investing money on marketing, but then MS killed Nokia, and they are letting the whole mobile platform die. MS always had (and still have) enough money to "convince"...

    Current list of Windows 10/Microsoft problems

    It looks like MS have no idea what the hell they can do to make Win10 as good as Win7.. or even WinXP. They're just adding and removing stuff here and there. The whole OS feels like an eternal beta.

    I keep coming back to Windows Phone

    I always considered myself immune to the app-gap issue... until I installed a security camera at home, and discovered that the camera needs its app in order to be configured/monitored. And guess what, there's no WP/W10M version of the app (not even for Windows 10 Desktop). So I had to put away...

    Why there is no whatsapp push notifications?

    Sounds good. Now, when the Cellular's data connection off, how am I supposed to get notifications when there's no WiFi?

    A date/time error.. seems like some newbie changed the date/time on the server, and now there're at least 10 engineers fixing that

    Exactly which app does the Windows Phone not have that you want/need?

    Something that acts like a blinking notification LED for devices with no Glance support

    I thinking about getting a smartwatch, but apparently, all the existing smartwatches are compatible only with Android and/or iOS.
