Don't settle for the 950xl. You'll be disappointed coming from a 1520. 1520 is leaps and bounds better than either the 950 or 950xl.
For me double-tap to wake IS indeed a very important feature that i will be missing :/
Also I just found out online, the Super-sensitive Touch is gone in the Lumia 950 and 950XL? Cant use gloves or a pencil with my screen anymore? Unbelievable :/
This way upgrading from a 1520 feels more like losing features rather than improving. I won't be using Continuum anyway.
The "super sensitive" touch on my 1520 just pissed me off to no end, I'm glad its not there on my 950xl.
Even on the least sensitive setting the stupid 1520 touch was too sensitive and would register a "press/tap" when I was trying to scroll.
They have just confirmed that I'm getting the 950XL as a replacement. I hope it's the white one, the black is awful. And I have no money now to buy a Mozo case![]()
It's also nice to see other people agreeing with the fact that coming from a 1520 will make me feel like I'm losing some things. The feeling when holding the phone in the hand, the curved glass, the built quality... and the design
That sounds like your 1520 has the ghost-touch hardware issue, it's not related to the Super Sensitive touch technology. My 1020's screen touch was amazing and it never had any ghost touch.
that's the norm with lumia, cant let go of my 928 because xenon and low light is actually better than 1520, also lcd is meh and no qi charging and so on, I could be settled on a 930 now but it doesn't have glance... its just.. jeez, they seriously cant be Samsung in this regard? Sammy just keeps adding crap no matter what, never taking away
back on topic I think you should accept it, iris unlock is damn cool, camera is back to 920's awesomeness in low light and everything, design is fixed with some mozo badassery, BUT I will miss the 2.5d glass or whatever nokia did their screens simply look outstanding compared to anything design-wise
see if you can live with it, I'm almost certain tap to wake is coming, so it will be 99% perfect, if you still hate it then sell it and get a 1520 that wont cost more than 200-230$ mint, and save the other 400$ or so

Hey! Another Spaniard here with a 1520. How have you managed to send the phone to Madrid? I am not able to contact them in the Microsoft page, just keep saying "no hay ninguna oferta asociada con el tipo de problema seleccionado." when I try to select the problem to send the phone.
I want to try and get the 950XL.
BTW, my 1520 is yellow and new, no scratches, always with hard case, no ghost-touch issue. If you are interested we could change your 950XL for my Lumia 1520 in Barcelona!
If your phone is working correctly, why are you trying to send it to the repair service?
I have decided I will give the 950XL a goobviously if after receiving it I'm not happy I might sell it and get a new 1520 or 930.
