Re: Share your Windows Phone History! Davesparkey
Thought it'd be fun to share our Windows Phone histories with one another. Doing so is simple, just follow the format I use below:
Example: Dell Venue Pro > Nokia Lumia 510 > HTC 8XT > Nokia Lumia 822 > Alcatel One Touch Pixi 3 > Microsoft Lumia 950 XL > HP Elite X3
(my personal history is a lot shorter!) lol
What's your WP history!?
My phone history is quite long, (I'm old) lets see if I can remember them all, starting form the 90s:
>nokia I think It was a 2110 or something like that, it had a great battery life and a pull out aerial!
>nokia 3210, first phone with no aerial!
>nokia 6210, smaller.
>Samsung twin screen flip phone colour screen!!
>Compaq Ipaq pocket pc, with a stylus! amazing piece of kit.
>another Compaq iPAQ with black grille on top newer version.
>SPV smartphone (the spvs and iPAQs may have been the other way round I cant remember.
>SPV500 smartphone.
>Motorola MPX200 flip phone, windows mobile, went rhough a couple of these, in black, sexy little thing.
>Motorola MPX220 flip phone, windows mobile.
>HTC touch with touch flo and window mobile 6.5 I think.
>HTC touch diamond, had a beautiful charging ring that danced round the home button and a lovely hard plastic case and jagged rear case.
>HTC touch HD, beautiful phone lovely in the hand touch flo 3D.
>HTC HD2 also very nice, had a clip on car mount and metal rear.
>fanfare- HTC HD7 with windows phone 7 operating system, had a brilliant kick stand, 5mpx camera, and windows phone 7 was beautifull, faultless and fast, wow was it fast! around 2009 I think.
>HTC 8x, don't really like it to be honest.
> Nokia lumia 900, left HTC as they stopped making windows phones and the Lumia looked good, it was good, tough, comfortable.
>Nokia Lumia 920, windows phone 8. loved it especially how it sat in the hand had everything, wireless charging, great camera.
>nokia Lumia 925, started off nice but scratched terribly, went back to a 920 because I missed it.
>Nokia Lumia 930 or icon, really liked this phone.
>Microsoft Lumia 950 with continuum what I believe is the future of computers and phones, my wife still has this phone with a wooden back, she loves it.
>And last but not least and currently- the HP elite X3 with continuum that by the way does just work really well I can do so much with just a full screen browser let alone anything else, I have the dock permanently set up with wireless keyboard and mouse via usb dongle, the xbox controller works in it too (yep it does try no gravity! uwp game) its great, camera is pretty good, not as good as the Lumia 950 but pretty good (16mpx), I have a 128Gb micor sd card in with my entire music collection and lots of movies which when I stay away I use the Microsoft HDMI receiver to plug into any TV, works a treat.
> what's next..... I must admit I've ben slightly tempted by the Samsung galaxy S8! ( I know sacrilege) it makes me sad to think it, I don't want to leave windows phone but they have DEX and android has pay apps and other things that just are not on windows phone, but I'm sticking to it for no in the hope that windows mobile doesn't die off and that Microsoft will bring out new hardware next year.
