Windows Central says (and they're confident about it) that we're not to expect any other high-end MS windows phone after the L950/XL for a year. If there is a Surface Phone, I'd think this would fall in the high-end/flagship category. If true, can wait that long?  tongue.gif

yea..that's what i heard too...but i think surface phone is confirmed. and i think i'm able to wait..maybe opt for mid-range android phone to tank..and I bet surface phone gonna be costly with the latest Microsoft price...so a year to prepare my money for surface phone biggrin.gif

just about to post..

seems like not a bad deal for me...but I'm surprise the dock is RM300 instead of RM4xx since its $99 and with Malaysia currency, would be RM4xx.

RM3k? add 1k can get surface pro 4.

actually, i find the price kind of high... Microsoft should come with lower price tag to secure the market and user so people will find it acceptable and more willing to spend on it.

due to the lack of apps and slow updates makes people doesn't wanna have a windows phone.

btw..surface pro 4 RM4k? specs? entry-level surface pro?

yup..windows 10 for mobile still not ready to be premium product

unless windows 10 can install apk and use it without any issue then yes
*
well..waiting for the project astoria or other sort of ways to import/install apps from other OS. from there, it would Microsoft would be able to pick up from there. with Windows OS fluid and with Android's/iOS's store, would certainly attract more people.

just hope next year the surface phone with the ability to install .exe programs is real. that would be a game changing phone. but i guess the price would be similar to iphone by that time.

4k is entry level but still usable to a certain extend

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 i5 12" 128GB + Bundle with Arc Touch Mouse also cost 4k now (yes its 1 year old but still good)

the phone is definitely overpriced
*
oh..i haven't check the price for surface pro 4 yet...

yea surface pro 3 is sufficient. just that expensive to me cry.gif cry.gif

Looking on the brighter side of things, if the 950XL is RM3k, then the logical conclusion is that the L950 should be cheaper than RM3k? Maybe still can consider. Hehe
*
well..it should be in-range of ~RM2.5k? no? not sure. biggrin.gif

some people argue that 950 doesn't have liquid cooling...not sure about it.

and from GSMarena comments and reviews, seems like the battery life for 950 is bad for now, not sure is because of software or hardware.

To me they look out of focus, not like they are horrible pics, just focus point is wrong. Sadly the camera app still probably put focus at the wrong place if subject is moving or way too many points that the focusing algorithm doesn't know what to do. Usually to take such pics I always lock focus without letting the camera select focus for me.

We all waiting here  drool.gif
Guys, Blackberry already went the route of allowing Android apps installed on their phone & it never helped their marketshare or make their phones desirable. What makes u guys really think able to install Android apps will suddenly make Windows 10 Mobile a premium OS? With the disconnect of the 2 OS in terms of UI & no support of Google services, it will NEVER work out the way u guys hope. In fact anyone installing android APK directly will surely run into more issues & complain even more.

As for Surface phone, I doubt it can install .exe programs but then who knows. But then again, are u ready to PAY for such a phone? It should cost almost a Surface Pro lowest specs.
*
Well...with the apps available, it would be time for marketing strategy to promote the phone..

for the surface phone, yea. i get the idea of the price would be similar or more expensive than iPhone. that will have to see next year when Microsoft introduce it.

Eh... I don't really get what you meant with your 1st paragraph haha.

oh..when apps is available, time for Microsoft to promote the phone...

for now the perception of people towards windows phone is normally "got apps ar?"..

when they finally secure the market place... its time for them to advertise to attract people..

unlike Apple, the just have to announce and people will be queue-ing for hours to get the phone..

have to salute Apple or their marketing during iPhone 4 that time..

Oh haha! So that's what u mean. Unfortunately it's chicken & egg problem. How do u secure market share without enough apps? How do u get devs to make apps when you don't have market share?  brows.gif

Apple is jedi master in marketing. They can come out with the same iPhone next year, slap 7 on it & it will still break sales records.  whistling.gif

yea..the chicken and egg problem..just hope that the project astoria is a success...

It's okay if they don't revive Astoria because Islandwood is still up and running, and apparently the functionality is better when porting over from iOS apps. I don't think there are any major apps which are on Android but not on iOS, so as long as Islandwood exists, the potential is still there.

oh. but good to have both cause sometimes, some apps are easier to develop in Android compare to iOS. biggrin.gif
