vrvly, 17 Aug 2017Still expecting slow and 2 fast ring's updates. This phone ... moreYeah this is the problem, that two years after release can be called a good product to go on sale. Kinda late, i can clearly understand the people that did not want to stick with it. But well, i am one who likes "digital trouble" perfection being something i would probably get bored of in a matter of mounts.

I know what you mean about awful, but well, i remained with it just cause, i do not like sharing info with google, and android or ios look dated as hack. When Symbian looked like that android was not even born. Windows 10 has something to it i just can't abandon. The cleanness of the UI is just marvelous

Put it on a flat surface and try to spin it. If it spins, your battery is swollen, which means it's busted and needs to be replaced.

I bought this phone a year back assuming it be one of the best phone is market as it was a flagship from Microsoft. Honestly speaking i did not had a good experience with mobile, my experiences are shared below.
Cons:
1)Related to battery: On heavy usage the battery doesn't even last for half day, though phone supports fast charging it feels hectic to charge the phone 2 to 3 times a day for heavy usage.
The camera app also consumes a high power.
2) Microsoft App store: There aren't many VPN Services app on Microsoft Store therefore a security issue. Few VPN apps are available that to doesn't work well.
--> Also many other day to day Social Apps doesn't work well which is the major reason Microsoft doesn't have a good market share.
3) Encountered many lags and hangs while working.
Pros:
1) Excellent Camera with Optical Image Stabilization, One of the best camera phones in the market.
2)Excellent Display clarity.
3)Excellent Audio Clarity.
4) Microsoft office apps like Word, excel and Power Point works quite well.
5) Continum Support.

Aside from no applications the list of problems:
1) Too easy to crack screen. Have lost 3 costly screen covers thankfully opposed to actual screen.
2) Cannot see screen in natural light or brightly lit artificial environments.
3) Wi-Fi disconnects, forces reboot more than staying connected. Microsoft cannot comprehend adding a "connect" button to settings or making power save work properly.
4) Onscreen keyboard, location of Windows key causes too many lost messages with text input!
Within the first year more applications where discontinued or simply stopped working to make it useful. Lost mobile banking and Starbuck's which never really worked July 2017. Continuim is fun if free, not warranted for purchase. Only UWP applications work which is limited to Microsoft and a few others.
Hope lies in Windows S and application developers waking up to reality of a single application running on PC, tablet, phone, console delivered through the Store. Sadly the phone will be dead before that happens. Great camera, good audio output and capable screen when it can be viewed.

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!
The best feature - Continuum is bullshit - there are no apps available except the Office apps (Word, Powerpoint, Excel, Outlook) and edge (which is not actually a browser - it takes 15-20 seconds to display the contents of a page which are already downloaded!
VLC Media player is available but it just does not work. You can't move your video forward; if you try, you WILL HAVE TO wait for 2 minutes for a 5 second forward.
There are almost no apps. Those which are there are either third quality or just do not work.
It does not support VoLTE - so not future proof.
DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!
I am saying because I am an idiot, who did!

Absolutely the worst phone I have ever had the misfortune of owning. I cannot overstate how much frustration this phone has caused me over the past 6 months of use (as the horribly cracked screen illustrates).
The first month or two I had practically no issues and the one or two I did were related to applications, not the phone itself. Something changed along the way, however, as the device seemed to dedicate itself to my anguish.
At first there were relatively minor glitches (speaker cuts out at times thinking I plugged in headphones, screen becomes stuck in landscape mode) but over time, things only got worse as more debilitating glitches, such as severe lag in the browser with practically 0 load on the device, input lag upwards of FIVE SECONDS and even the occasional freeze. Of course my weeks are never complete without at least one total freeze forcing a reboot either.
That's not to say that every Lumia 950xl has these issues or will ever exhibit even one of them, just that I paid $350 new for the phone and I feel ripped off.
My next device will be an iPhone.
