    Does Lumia 950 XL have support in 2018?

    I've just sold my 950XL. I just don't think it has much leg to stand on software wise. hardware is brill, but software is a let down. How is the "Huawei Mate 9" camera compared to 950xl?

    revert windows 10 back to windows 8 mobile

    Hi, Disappointed with the speed of the camera with win10 installed on my 1020. I am sure back in the win8.1 days, it was a lot faster! Am I making that up? If so, how can I revert it back? I tried that microsoft recovery tool, but it still win10. TBH, most of the apps (that I would use)...

    Where can I still buy 950 XL?

    obviously amazon would be the best bet, and I was gonna give you a few places where you can buy it, but you are correct - they all seem to not stock them or "discontinued" (ffs, its not that old!) I am selling my 950xl on ebay, but I hope those reviews don't put you off. I guess follow ebay...

    New battery

    I second that. More expensive, but looks really genuine and quick delivery. Battery holding its charge - now at 23% after 41 hours so far with medium use which I am sure far better then the original battery I had!

    Crashing/Battery Issues

    get a new battery. I just replaced mine - and not crashed once. Previously, it used to reboot just after I typed in the PIN, use the camera or when texting. Battery appears to be about 60% and then phone shutdown with dead battery symbol now I don't get any reboots. In fact, I charged it up...

    I gave up on the 950 XL

    Surprise, about that as I just did a walk through with both 4k and lower resolution going from indoors to outdoors, both with OIS on and off and didn't get as much (if at all) of any shakes. I was comparing to a potential purchase of oneplus5 and disappointed that there is no stability in 4k...

    Pictures + Videos Taken With My Lumia 950 XL

    Crashing/Battery Issues

    Someone mentioned on this forum somewhere that microsoft is selling genuine batteries from 27th March. will see if I can find the link. FYI: I am having the exact problem as you - except the sd card resetting. just posting it off back to b2x support and I hear it had been fixed and is on...

    Lumia 950xl dual sim overheating and 🔋 drain, abnormally.

    Funny, you should mention this. I don't have a dual sim, but lately, I have been experiencing the same problem as you. battery drain in literally seconds for no reason. shutdown when it was about 50% with a flat battery icon. restarting in the middle of an inconvenient time, heck even...

    Project Astoria - For emulating Android apps

    To be honest, I am not sure why win32 emulator would make any difference. I don't want a full windows desktop app running on my mobile phone. I just want mobile apps, and with 2.2 million+ android apps it makes sense to have an android emulator. As for "developers revenue" - you would still...
