Not at all, it is just a fad among some bloggers. I haven't done a hard reset since the first .586 build, if not earlier, and everything works fine on my phones.
I have not tried to revert back to 8.1 yet. But the focusing works sometimes which is really weird. If it was something completely mechanical that was broken then I would expect it to never work.
I hope it's something software related that can get fixed once and for all in a future update.
Please share your W10 experience on the 830. I've tried it 3 times in the past and had to revert to 8.1 everytime, I'm still not ready to jump aboard the W10 boat yet.Ignore that... I'm a bellend!!! After all that fannying around I've found I'm looking at the wrong bit.. I was looking at the Firmware, which in my defence looks remarkably similar (in numbers) to the Software version!!! well it ends in .36
Anyhew, I am running .71 :winktongue:

Main concerns were stability, bt not reliably connecting in car, crazy camera, crashing apps, resume resume resume...
I've been getting a massive data leak since this update. Almost a GB a day, even I'd I hardly touch my phone
Updated my 640xl yesterday and then hard reset. Gmail account live tile badge notification is still broken...works good for other accounts. It worked great for a couple of hours but then stop refreshing correctly. Driving mode still does not switch off automatically when leaving the car when I also have my Band 2 connected to the phone. And Edge still crashes, freezes when scrolling down in a page, does not load pages and history windows remains visible after typing in the address bar. Actually Edge is quite poor. And battery life looks to have taken a hit on this build compared to .63 but I am not quite sure yet.
I understand this is a preview software and we agreed to live with bugs but this is a cumulative update to an OS pre installed on device they are selling now. This is quite disappointing. I came from iPhone ans I was amazed by WP 8.1 and hot stable it was but I can't see any improvement on stability on W10M for the last 2 months and things that were working great are now again broken. I am pulling the plug...just ordered a Nexus 6P...sadly
Even with Skype video signed out, Messaging+ is eating my battery like crazy.
I did hard reset when I installed. Have very few apps selected for background.
This is the worst build to date for me. Hoping for a fix or back to 8.1 until 10 is fully ready.
Skype Video can kill your battery fast if you don't sign out of it when not using it.
I never sign out my Skype and Skype video, I keep them running in background. It appears that it works just fine. My screen display consumes about 70% of my battery even I have the brightness to 40% to 50%.

Installed .71 last Friday on my 1520 and i gotta say everything has improved but the battery life im getting is just worse, reverting back to wp8.1 as we speak
