    Sharing the same opinion as MichaelPipkins, I made at least 10 people in my office, all my family change their phones to Lumias, but i'm getting tired of defending a lost cause.

    M$ft needs to wake up urgently, customers need quick a reliable updates and improvements, or it will continue to loss more and more market share then disappear...

    My Lumia 950XL Dual SIM Code = 059X4S4) is not usable in my car with Bluetooth as it keeps disconnecting randomly, and people around don't understand i have such issues with the latest Microsoft flagship device !

    My 950XL DS could be my last Windows Phone or Windows 10 Mobile phone. I have been a long time Nokia->Microsoft user. I was super proud of WP8.1 fluidity and stability but W10M is a major let down. I know it's a new built from ground OS but the time taken for MS to address bugs for basic day to day usability took months. I have the phone for about 3 months now and until today I am not sure when it will reboot randomly. Hard reset a couple of times throughout this period. I have so many random reboots up to a point that I have to remove my SIM PIN just to make sure that others can contact me. And talking about phone freezing in a middle of a call and bluetooth disconnecting, it's like paying for a flagship with my hard-earned money and getting an unusable phone. And with MS moving away from hardware with amazing PureView imaging in the future, i see no point hanging around now that other hardware+OS is getting better and better with imaging. So, 950XL will be my last... and seeing MS offering goodies apps to Android and IOS (i do use these other devices) that works even better than in W10M...

    Well anyhow, this is just my rant. A rant from a single user that MS will just ignore. Sad.

    How to undo what you just installed... and do it without access to the settings menu.

    Please, continue there…
