    Do snapchat have any plans to make an app for the Windows Phone community?

    Well you're just one person, just because you don't want App x doesn't mean others don't and vice versa.

    What browser do you use on your PC?

    Chrome works best on my Windows 7 Sony Vaio. However nothing compares to IE11 on SP3. Chrome is buggy on touch screens and Firefox at least in my experience loves to crash on Windows 8.1

    Do snapchat have any plans to make an app for the Windows Phone community?

    I think if everyone here at Windows Central all took 2 minutes to go write these developers emails we might at least solicit an official response. At least from Snapchat, YikYak, etc. but not Google. Google could give two sh*ts about apps on WP, under any market share figure.

    MS Band as a Pipboy 3000?

    "I don't want to set the world on fire... I just want to start a flame in your heart." Well minus the teleportation a PipBoy Is basically just a smart phone in the form of an armband. IDK if the mainstream consumer would want such a large device stuck on them, If anything it would be niche...

    If apple can do it alone, why not Microsoft Lumia?

    What I think Microsoft needs to do with the upcoming Lumia 1030 (assuming it's actually coming) is bundle it with popular Microsoft services to create more product differentiation and appeal. 1.) enterprise user package: 2 year Office 365 subscription & Skype included with purchase of Lumia...

    Xbox Music As A Major Record Label?

    This model works for Microsoft with low levels of smartphone/tablet market share with the end goal being platform growth. This model would only eat away at Apple and Google's profits which have far less room for growth, so it would be unlikely the competitors would be enticed to match this model...

    Xbox Music As A Major Record Label?

    **Disclaimer : This is just postulation and idea sharing from a Microsoft enthusiast to other enthusiasts, it?s not some leaked rumor out of Redmond or anything like that** (If you don?t want to read the whole piece, scroll down below the SWOT analysis). Hear this proposition out, what is the...

    If you're using a Lumia check your settings in "Data Sense" and tweak the settings to suit your needs.

    Is Xbox 360 with buying?

    Well the Xbox 360 is still supported by Microsoft with updates and games. So given the price is reasonable to you then I don't see why it wouldn't be worth the money. Just don't expect all of the newest blockbuster games to also be available for 360. Like Forza 5, Forza Horizon 2, Halo 5, etc...

    (Optimistic Surface Phone Theory) Could it be possible that Lumia is for low/mid range and Surface i

    First of all I'm not an Android fan, I'm actually a former iOS user who left because Apple got so stale and boring. I don't think you even read my reply in its entirety. The top line iPhone6+ is $1200 that's American dollars not Mexican pesos. For that price I can buy a 256GB Surface Pro 3 with...

    (Optimistic Surface Phone Theory) Could it be possible that Lumia is for low/mid range and Surface i

    Are you kidding? There's no way you can be serious or maybe you're just arguing for the sake of it. Just look up all the iPhone 6 rumors and hype leading up to the release. Everyone in the Apple tech journalism community was expecting wireless charging, waterproofing, a camera more similar to...

    Want a i5/8GB/256GB but found a cheap i7/8GB/512GB

    In all honesty you more than likely would have no need for an i7 unless you're into serious video/photo editing or serious engineering AUTOCAD programs. Or for serious PC gaming, but I wouldn't recommend a SP3 for an avid PC gamer because prolonged gaming on such a thin tablet would pose heating...

    (Optimistic Surface Phone Theory) Could it be possible that Lumia is for low/mid range and Surface i

    No that's not always the case, people have bought into crap products that just had brilliant marketing. Like the iPhone 6 for example still only has 1 GB of RAM and only an 8MP camera (although that doesn't make it crap) it just proves that if your marketing is elite and your brand...

    Is it me or are there no more exciting news about WP?

    I've become disenchanted after Microsoft broke my heart with the McLaren cancelation. Even though I know a flagship phone similar to that eventually will come, I now take all WP related rumors with a grain of salt.

    (Optimistic Surface Phone Theory) Could it be possible that Lumia is for low/mid range and Surface i

    No, no, no my friend one of the first things we're taught in business is that a product/service is only as good as its marketing. We've seen amazingly marketed products of poor quality sell like hotcakes, yet no one has ever seen a quality product sell without marketing. Marketing is half the...
