Microsoft CEO fans the Surface phone flames with talk of an "ultimate mobile device"

24 November 2016
Satya Nadella mostly confirmed that the US giant will be throwing its gloves back in the smartphone ring.

Sort by:

I waited and tried the 950. As soon as I got the SMS message area. I put it down. The interface was a horrid a complete mess. Pity, i wanted to want it. Windows phones don't offer the alpha numeric keypad for typing. Old fashioned yes but all use it as large fingers.

It's real and you can buy it. For example the Zerolemon battery for Note 4. And they will make an extended battery for LG V20, just saying in case someone wants a modern smartphone with removable battery with extended battery.

      Talk of innovation, talk MS, surface style of PCs are a proof and next to come will be in the mobile division

              They keep promising to release something amazing every single year and end up falling short everytime. Good thing they still have these loyal fanboys to defend their ailing platform.

I like Windows 10 but the phone is terrible in the apps support and to be fair i haven't use their phone for the last 2 years cos i gave up on them, won't be looking that way until i can see improvements. Went up the wrong ship and almost drowned. Only thing i like was that it was smooth but not like Android is not so there's no reason to switch over anytime. Even if they can somehow put in a 10000mah battery to keep the phone running for 4 days, it will still take a lot more than that for majority of people to switch over.

                                    [deleted post]Why would anyone be jealous for not using a Windows phone ? They are cheap as hell, there are no apps and therefore the good ram management is useless.

                                      No apps, no games and restricted OS = lack of community, lack of customers. Sufrace phone probably will be expensive device, so if it does no count on a product available for the mass customer.
                                      Their latest products such as Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile and behavior, force pushing their ideas (upgrade ->W10) very much deteriorated trust to Microsoft.
