Windows Central Question
Hey there! I've been doing tons of research looking into windows devices and i'm more than welcome to join the community despite "app-gap". My options have been between the Alcatel Idol 4S and the Lumia 950 (non xl). I know the Idol 4S is newer than the Lumia but I do have a few concerns.
1. Will the Lumia 950 be more likley to not receive any future support to any major Window's updates to the platform? Clearly ARM is out of the question on any mobile device other than the Elite x3 but I want to know if I will have any issues in the future.
2. How is the battery life on the 950? My current phone usually drops pretty low by the time i'm home, around 40% battery life I don't charge it. This is an 8 hour work day, I usually watch twitch for most of that time but even being at home my phone dies quickly from surfing the web and using social media. I'm looking for something super reliable in terms of battery.
3. This one is a bit of a cosmetic gripe, but how does the phone feel in the hand? It's VERY hard to tell from the reviews I have seen considering its larger than a iPhone but smaller than a iPhone Plus. I'm in no way a fan of small devices which is why I always opted for phablets over normal devices. But the 950 seems like it hits a certain sweet spot in size. What are your opinions on the size of the phone?
Thanks for your time!
