Thanks.

My review more or less agreed with what reviews from GSM Arena except below whereby I will update along my daily usage :


Pro
- USB Type C fast charging really FAST.
- Qi Wireless Charging works on my Asus brand
- 1080p MKV playback improved
- 4K video recording
- Decent camera
- FM was there




Con
-Double tap to unlock not there due to hardware limitation (AMOLED Display)
-Iris Beta unlock was cool but having security loophole.
-Sounds quality not in par with Andriod but still Ok, can bought a better earphone like Sony or BOSE tongue.gif


Stay tune...more to come. I don't have the Dock yet and the Miracast not really working with my 65" HDTV mad.gif blink.gif cry.gif

Iris to unlock replace this feature, no big deal. I used 1520 before. 950XL far better Windows experiences brows.gif

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Something to add in, there is still some bugs in the phone, for example, the notification center: when a new message comes in (e.g. wechat), it show notification in the notification bar, if u open the app DIRECTLY to read the msg, the notification icon is still remained at the notification bar until u clear it. I am not sure if anyone else notices this or not.

As for the screen display, it is gorgeous IF u view in indoor, but not under the sunlight. I find the visibility of the screen under the sunlight is not that clear.

The IRIS scanner does not work all the time, nor it works fast everytime. Most of the time, i would rather just swipe to unlock the screen.

As for the people who complain lack of app....I dont think this is a problem of the phone itself.. it is the problem of the developers who never want to make the app available in the Windows store.

Guys, need help, I preordered mine on Lazada at 10/12/2015 14:04:48, but since then, not a single update. Even the confirmation email I didn't get. Usually when we buy at lazada, will get confirmation email right? Not this one. This is my order details:

user posted image

As you can see, it said the ETA was 18th December, but I've yet to receive any updated from them. Not even a tracking number. I've contacted Microsoft Malaysia and they gave this useless reply:

user posted image

I also contacted Microsoft Lumia Malaysia, which they straight ignore me. So I called Lazada yesterday, it said to check on me and get back to me later, and just today they called me and said that they contacted the "merchant" as in MS, and they confirmed it that it's going to be deliver starting 15th of January!! I was like WTF??? Why? If knew this will happened, I wouldn't pre-ordered it in the first place. Better off getting it in store. Do you guys have any idea what this is happening? sad.gif

I'm a loyal fan of Microsoft and this how they treated me? I've had Lumia 800 and now using Lumia 930 since it launched. I've always bought the latest flagship Lumia, yet this is what I get? Not cool Microsoft, not cool.

Things to note:
- I noticed they changed the product title to (ETA: 15th January) last week.
- I'm using Maybank 0% installment on Lazada and successfully checked out.
- Until now the order status still "processing"
- They say they are going to email if I ever get to be the first 100 that will receive the dock, yet not a single email either from lazada or microsoft.

p/s: I envy u guys have the phone in hand already.. I'm crying over here..  cry.gif

But majority of us no free dock. Anyway wish you good luck.

Just received the new firmware update mentioned here.
http://wmpoweruser.com/new-lumia-950-lumia...ware-whats-new/

Let's see if the auto brightness works better now. And wonder if the SD perf will allow my SD card to work with rich capture properly now, was taking a loooooong time to process previously.

Not to mention the fact that any other phone that runs Windows 10 right now is on the generic not for production Windows 10 build, you're really not supposed to be surprised that things don't work!

Honestly, this is the most stable half baked or cook Windows smartphone I used to date. Not regret owned it as my daily smartphone. Something unique out of the crowd icon_idea.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

True, it's over priced and it's a fan boy gadget. cool2.gif

For those who want to try Windows 10, get the 640XL DS LTE instead. rolleyes.gif

For those jump ship folks, this will not be your toy unless you have spare $$$$ notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif
