I do own Lumia 710, Lumia 510 (dead for now) Lumia 720, Lumia 625, and Lumia 1520.
I was one among who purchased these models during initial days of its release. None of the phones gave up on me. Sadly, I'll have to.

Same old song. They obsoleted themselves due to lack of apps/app support/the broken Edge engine etc...It was all a chain reaction. Nadella made a smart move. Cost Microsoft a lot but in the end, saved and made much more profit by dumping mobile. Shame though...they should have never started what they can't finish, but that seems to be a trend for Microsoft.

R.I.P, was an amazing OS except for app support. I used Windows Phone 8.0 and 8.1 on ny Lumia 520 which was my first smartphone. I also got a HTC 7 Trophy which my dad gave me but I gave it to my friend a few months later, I used it on Windows Phone 7.8

SpiritWolf, 18 Jan 2019What the heck are you babbling about? There MUST be alterna... moreLook up Eelo. They're becoming an Android formed by Lineage but using an app store full of apks from developers of Lineage. Considering China hates Google, I can see this as a potential replacement for Android down the road for them and considering this doesn't operate under the Google platform, no spy-ware.

nik.007, 18 Jan 2019They seriously had a great OS back in the day, quite stable... moreTheir cameras still compete. Look at the Lumia 1020 v any Huawei device. Lumia wins in many areas, though shot speed is slower. My 950XL still shoots great photos. Even low light shots are decent. The OS still seems to do most things I need. From time to time, I notice Android adding features that I have had for many years.

It was about time, it's sad news for a former Lumia owner here. It has been clear for about 3 or 4 years already, they gave up.

Windows Phone has been dead for a while now. The last relevant WP devices came out in 2015-16 (Lumia 950/XL/650). There hasn't been any OS updates of late and Microsoft simply hasn't backed the platform enough.
Personally, I'm disappointed in Microsoft. WP was a good OS, all it really lacked were third-party apps.

Heck, even old Symbian Belle is better than Pie. (And yes, i know what am i talking about, having used XZ3 for last three months.) Android is AWFUL OS that has only one purpose. Spy on you.
Currently rocking Nokia 808 (Symbian Belle), Lumia 950XL and Xperia XZ3.
