Hello everyone,

I'd like to purchase one of the above. Let me know what you guys have as I'm just looking to fool around with windows 10 as a secondary device.

I am located in Canada so keep that in mind.

Hit me up with prices!

Thanks

I just purchased an unopened box 950 XL off ebay earlier this week. Haven't received it yet, but I can report back on my experience if you want to wait a little. I also have an Idol 4S with a bum battery if you want it. It lasts most of the day with light use, but randomly goes to critical battery at 40 to 30%, which disqualifies it's use as a primary phone. I'm in US though, not sure how the transaction would work. What part of Canada? I travel to Ottawa and Montreal frequently.

I'd kind of like one of the higher end w10 devices. I tried a few of the mid end ones but was curious about the ones I listed

I have all three and the best overall experience is the 950XL in my opinion, look for that

Sadly I sold my 950XL and HP Elite X3. I guess I was lucky to do so. You should be able to get either of them from eBay or Amazon I imagine.

Hey, do you want my Idol 4S?
It's in mint condition. I've never even used it as a phone. In fact, I've never really used it at all.

They are both great members to deal with!!! Methinks Meattray is going for the dtek50 feel with the Idol

Hey! The more I look at it I think I’m going to wait for an elite. I think that’s the device I’m waiting on!

Just upgraded to a 950xl from 950. Brand new out of the box. Updates went smoothly and it installed everything as it was on the 950. Very impressed. One of those strange moments.. I was very happy at the same time very sad. This phone is flawless but wondering how long it will remain functional when the lack of updates from Microsoft and third party updates will out run this phone. As of now... I'm in a Microsoft dream state of mind...lol
