There has been a price cut for Lumia 950/XL in the US and other countries including India recently. With Ringgit appreciating (now below RM4 for US$1) I am wondering whether we can see a price reduction for Lumia 9xx. Even Apple reduces their watch prices and the new iphone SE starts lower.

They should revise the app prices in the Windows Store as well. Before RM depreciation a $0.99 was priced RM2.99. Now it is RM4.20. With RM appreciating it should be around RM4.

Yeah, unfortunately like no price movement here. Microsoft Malaysia is always very slow.... shakehead.gif

Hi all. I am eyeing Lumia 950. Wanted to know whether you encounter any problems? Like the 950 not XL because I don't like big phones. Any knows hear of promotion?

Looks like prices have been reduced by RM300 for 950XL and RM200 for 950 on Lazada. 950XL now listed RM2699 while 950 is now RM2499.

Actually I called them directly and it is with the dock. At first they said no then I said your website and fb said come free with a dock. Then they checked and said yes. Sometimes salespeople don't have a clue.

i PM directd via lelong.com, they say it is without continuum dock
btw, is it true that using too much iris scanner will cause damage to eye? (infra red)

There are several threads here on failed update. Some suggested to use Windows Device Recovery Tool.

I cracked my screen two weeks ago. Had to replace and costed me RM700+.

Now I am looking for a good case. I like the Nilkin TPU case. At least it can protect the sides and looks good. How is it? Easy to press button?

For the screen, I use tempered glass.

Currently I have a case with a cover. But it does not work well when I put on my wireless charger. So I am looking at soft cases like tpu.

Got my 950 Friday. Single SIM. Seems the latest build update didn't fix the Backup related battery draining issue,so I still turn off the backup to One Drive feature,which do the trick to solved the battery draining issue on my 550,also switch the 'auto wifi switch on' to 'manually',or else the wifi will auto swiith on every 1 hour even the phone is on LTE.
This flagship is feeling cheap,worse than any china made chicken brand selling below RM500. M$ is soooooooooooo KEDEKUT........
So far overall is acceptable,3GB RAM is quite speedy compare to some 4GB RAM Android competitor,no doubt WM10 is a big leap,just needed some more polish. Apps is ok,not much I need,but my favourite Opera Browser is not in the store,that Opera Mini just craps.
With my usage,battery still have 60% now,from a full charge on Friday night. Charging is fast. Good.
Camera is excellent,but not good at macro mode.
QHD screen is definitely great,but WM10 still far behind Android in efficiently utilize the pixel.  Tried to change the text size from 400% to 350%,everything looks better,but Whatsapp and FB Messenger still boost a huge text size that try to show the crowd sitting 5 tables away in a cafe what I'm typing........

This Nillkin Nature TPU skin is good. The only acceptable choice before Otterbox or Rinke Rearth decided to cover my 950...........

Looks interesting and cheap too. Never heard anything about Microsoft Wise Pad. Is it a new product from Microsoft?

It is listed as Windows 10 not Windows Mobile 10. I think the company name is Wise Pad.

You have to double tap slowly... Do not tap too fast.

Sadly no. You have to pay. I cracked mine few months ago and had to pay about RM700++.
