so the pricing will be more than Samsung and IPhone 6 huh ? then Microsoft get ready to see your market down. Pricing is everything. you price right according to the given spec and then only you see increase in sales, else you loose market for being greedy like samsung and i phone.

        Amonynous, 15 Jul 2015Windows running phones run better than competitor phones, e... moreStop spreading disinformation (I'm a big windows phone bytheway).
        Web rendering issues are still there.
        -Frequent flickering on many websites
        -Many websites don't display properly (one issue or another)
        -Some websites crush (the page shuts down).
        This experience is on all Lumia devices (920, 1520) with all
        8.1 and further updates.

        PROS:
        -Windows phones doesn't slow down due to a bloatware
        -Superior top notch typing interface and top both text auto correction
        . (as much as I Iike few android android phones, you simply cannot type text with relaxed fingers and fast)
        -HD voice installed on all Lumia phones

              I just hope these upcoming premium Lumia phones performs up to par with popular premium flagships from other brands regardless if they produce them with barely lower specs

                            It would cost more than iPhone if they quit lumia branding and stop plastic hardwares...xbox branding will do with finger touch scanner iris scanner 41mp with no big roubd hump on the back and hardware made of glass and metal....that would be worth more than galaxys6 and iPhone 6 the price..

                              Lumia to cost more than iPhone? MS will fail with this dream because iPhone is a luxury brand, never mind if its any good. Lumia is not luxury, it is good upper mid range. It will never command a luxury price

                                Microsoft is fully committed to Windows 10 mobile. Whoever said they are quitting mobile is dead wrong. In the interview with Satya he said "Even the phone, I just don't want to build another phone, a copycat phone operating system, even." They don't want to make copy cat phone they are building flagship Lumia phones that will stand out. Just like Surface products.

                                  This is stupid. Just traded my 930 for the 735 after trying it while my 930 was beeing repaired for a broken screen. That mad me realyse that the windows phone system runnes ust as good on a low spec phone as a high spec phone. benefits with the slower cpu and low res screen? 3 times the batteri time!!!
                                  Microsoft: its time too stop trying to beat Apple and Samsung at there game and do somthing new and different. (like you should not start making you os familier to ios and android users but bee an alternativ to thoes twins)

                                      I will not pay full price for an windows phone because I do not like the metro design in phone and computers. I have 930 and 920. 930 it is nicer because I can see an image behind tiles. We are living in a world were company's do not care what people want because they know better and they came with an ugly new interface design.
