Trying out two wide tiles on my 5 " screen -
(Updated from previous screenshot where text size was too big and was looking untidy )

Nah, you are just phishing for more Likes.

I won't even go there on my 6" Lumia 1520. Me eyes are too old.

I have reverted back to my normal 3 medium tiles in a row today because could not manage text size in start screen,Settings & messages - either too small or too big.Also battery % on pulling down action centre was too small. Missing the inbuilt Battery Saver app tile in 8.1 which updated with change of % .
Overall the tile size on my phone is bigger on W10 than it was on 8.1.

Does battery last longer with dark theme than with light theme ?

Only if you have a phone with an AMOLED display like the 930, 730/735, 650, 950& 950 XL. Otherwise, it makes no difference.
I have tried to use the light theme when I had a 735 and my battery was done in 22 hours. Dark theme, it lasted much longer.

What happens is that Phone[SUP]1[/SUP] / Messaging[SUP]1[/SUP] match your theme and then Phone[SUP]2[/SUP] / Messaging[SUP]2[/SUP] get assigned a "complimentary" color automatically.

You could use a solid wallpaper and make your tiles transparent...

I like the way they do that.

But another suggestion if you don't is to merge your tiles together. This is in the settings for messaging and in the settings for phone. This will allow you to have just one tile for each but you can still see which calls and messages come from each sim within the apps.

I've already try this, but when you join the phone tiles, calling using different sim ( switching between them) is not very friendly. It's a pity that MS did not create two separate buttons for calling (once you of course join the tiles), but you have to first choose what card and that hit "call". I would definitely love to see two phone icons on the numeric dial pad.

Ok, dumb question. How do you get the black background? Is it a wallpaper you downloaded?

Go to Settings/Personalization/Start ... under 'Choose style' tick 'Tile picture'. Yes the background is one I've downloaded (and blurred via a program on my desktop).

Whoa!!! How did you get the double wide tiles?? I already have my 950 set to show more tiles.

Here's the link to the article -
How to enable four columns for the Start screen on the Lumia 950 | Windows Central

But it does look a bit crowded and I found it difficult to manage text size.

Very cool. Any way you could share the background?
