Lol I now seeing this, sorry there.

I got a lemon with my 930 basically. My phone had a common problem with the proximity sensor would activate soon as a make a call and screen blank off and not come back on unless the call ended or a press the screen hard. Was gonna return it but it fell and got some minor cosmetic damage.

Phone battery is average, the feel is far less premium that my 920. 920's quality and strength is unmatched imo. I generally like windows is cuz ita pretty smooth and easy to use, no tweaking required.
Camera is amazing, Lumia camera had living images which Apple acting like they now invent and ppl going crazy for.

Bought a note 5 to try something new. 930 fell and unlike my bulletproof 920, screen broke and the frame bent so my back plate isn't fitting all the way in, so my flash isn't working :/ also voice on video isn't working good.
I pretty much overestimated the strength of the phone. I was team #nocase.

Phone is still working pretty well though, just too lazy to try n fix. Trying out Android

Trying out Android

sighhhhhhhhhh


i left the lumia line and upgraded my battered 820 for the HTC One M8 (Windows) <--- dumbest name for a phone ever

had a massive internal debate between the htc and the lumia 930 with the camera of course being the big problem

glance was also an issue for me

but i got the htc significantly cheaper and the camera is actually quite awesome... it aint up there with the 930's and iphones of the world... but its good!

in general i love it... she's a sexy powerful beast and wp runs buttery smooth... will try out 10 at the next insider build

if anybody buying the HTC tho... thing cries out for a case...

Windows Phone...RIP

[Crazydriver]

so microsoft getting greedy, downsized from free and unlimited cloud storage for phone users just went to $69.99USD a yr for 1TB cloud storage on one drive, without paying you have 9 months access in which you can catch up with payments, other than that iz just 5gb of storage. after this I am considering switching to android. disappointed with this move by MS

You still using Windows Phone as your main phone bai? Wheyyy

yep, I like the layout. Its faster and easier than other platforms. Plus imo it looks more modern than the others

That used to be me until the reality hit me. It's a nice platform with lots of promise. I hope Microsoft is rebooting this platform for 2017.

no... theyre not

its all about windows 10 being everywhere....

windowsphone usage and adoption has tanked and is around 1% market share nowadays... sigh

im still proudly part of the 1% tho

[christopherwilliams2]

I did not switch to android...I always had android then I tried windows phone for a year, had a 520, 925, 1020 but although they were good phones and the platform was solid... the app gap was too much. Not just having the app but actually updating it often..not once every year.

Windows Phone may be making a comeback in the future. Word is that the Windows 12 (October 2024) project is targeting ARM chips and RISC architecture as opposed to the more traditional CISC and x86 architecture that Microsoft partnered with Intel has always been known for. Microsoft already has a working ARM chip SQ1 in their Surface Pro X made by Qualcomm since 2019, but it looks like they're following the current market trend of Apple and Google on making their own proprietary chips through a chip manufacturer with tailored software OS for it.

So I'm guessing Windows 12 will come in two versions one for RISC machines and one for CISC. But these two environments will be seamless and fully integrated with their AI models. And I believe they're going to make a leap in the mobile gaming platforms too with this plan. Windows 12 is something to look forward to. I'm bypassing Windows 11 after I tried it for a bit.

Windows mobile was solid, smooth and consistent, performed better than android, but their crippling downside with the complete shitshow of an app ecosystem. Unless they pump some resources there too, or make it easy for devs to port code....I suspect the same will happen again.

This is an interesting watch showing the future of TSMC’s 3nM process
