Guys I'm interested in Windows phone but then I read this. Any truth in this?

The writer has over exaggerated the problems
Whatsapp - only issue I don't like is the bigger fonts
I rarely had this loading and resuming issues
Both Twitter and Facebook app are OK and no such issues as him
Waze has been fine for me so far

Seriously quality wise is true Windows app still lag behind Android/IOS equivalents

I don't know how experienced he is as a user !! Seems he had so much problems with his phone !!

Always think of getting a window phone...950 is sufficient?
*
For an Android or IOS regular user, one will be dissapointed with Windows app quality
I suggest you start off with a much cheaper model eg 640xl instead of the pricier 950
I had upgraded from 1520 to 640XL n now on 950XL
Seriously I am not a Windows mobile fan but just interested to keep up with its development
The 950xl will never be my main daily phone and I am still a very much Android user

Get the 650 instead. Better built quality.

If these specs are true, and if it's priced similar or less than the 950XL, then this will definitely be my next phone.

Great specs indeed
In overseas 950 n 950xl Microsoft are already cutting prices up to us$100 !!

Just don't understand why are u all still stick with this expensive but really buggy phones. This phones got nothing to offer with no apps & games at all.  sad.gif
*
There are 300000 app available but honestly only their quality mostly poorer vs Android n IOS
I can find all the app I commonly used n so is not a big issue
I am using the 950xl as a testing phone only to explore Windows 10 mobile
I wont say the phone is buggy - try yourself before throwing exaggerated comments
