People should have a choise to use the button or tap the screen,
now they are forced to tapp the screen........that button was unique and made the lumia's distinguished from other devices.
The xl version is litterly a xl version of a phone ( just like the 1320 and the 1520 )..........these things are sold to be phablets but they are infact just bigger phones, nothing special about it.
Phablets should be unique, just like the Samsung Phablets ( special apps and with stylus suport with special functions ).
WP don't even take advantage of these bigger screens, it doesn't matter if you look at a 4", 5" or a 6" inch screen it just looks exactly the same only bigger.
My 1320 does exactly the same as a 520, it just suports more games,
but thats only because of the ram.
Don't get me wrong, i do love my little 1320, but not as a phablet.
I am stil hoping for a 6" or 7" MS tablet with ful windows and with celphone support.
Waterproof and 20 mp pureview would be nice to.
But cmon Microsoft, make my day and build a true phablet.
I bet my mother in law for it that it would sell a lot better for business use.
Even when i lose, you still may have here............
On the positive side, nowing all this i can save some extra's for whenever they desided to build a phone witch i realy like.
I truly think they are on the good track, but so now and than they shoot some blanks.
Ow.........and make the red color real red and not orange ( just a minor detail ).
On the other hand, I'm happy with a big screen. It is much easier for reading and better for entertainment. I know WP is nothing like the Note 4 with split screens and stylus etc. But if I want to make use of a big screen, why would I split the screen into 2 smaller viewable apps on the screen?? This is not a computer desktop. Even on a desktop, I don't ever use the split screen apps capability on Windows 8. I prefer using an app at its maximum viewing size.
Now sometimes I do go back to my old and trusty 1020 with the tiny 4.5" screen. And believe me, it's a pain to do reading on it. Manga, web sites, Flipboard, RSS readering, etc etc all looking so tiny! Having a big screen is not "just supporting more games" but also much better user experience. Try using 520 for a day instead of your 1320 and you will understand what I meant.
Anyways, I will be getting a Cyan 640 when it is available. A 5" is good enough and easy for single hand operations, although I prefer it to be a 5.5" instead. Having a 1520, I'm not going for another 5.7" (640 XL). Also, don't worry that "these are just bigger phones" because when W10 comes, they will be great devices with the universal apps on bigger screen sizes. I will like to see more sentences when reading emails on Outlook on a big screen.
