    I originally bought a Nokia 635 and upgraded to a 650 when Windows 10 came out. I was considering a 950xl with dual sim and continuum but now I'm getting mixed messages on the direction this is going. I ruled out iPhone long ago as I watched then and continue to today customers waiting in line for hours after new updates crash their Phones and if you live far from a service center tough. IPad minis are fine but not a phone. Surface Pro? Maybe. It seems to be a combo smart phone/laptop. But i can't do anything until i know. Too bad they are not a privately owned Enterprise instead of a corporation. Corporations are just too slow to respond

    No, don't do it.  The Windows 10 phone was a great concept (moving from phone to PC/Tablet/Laptop without missing a beat).  And I still love the idea of being able to run my phone aps on my PC--but Microsoft  just gave up...I do not know --YouTube has a Surface pro phone--but unable to confirm with Microsoft

    My Windows 10 phone die---I could not longer get updates due to lack of storage space--and the SD card did not help because most aps you can't save on your SD card..

    Most banking, business, and new apps don't work on Windows 10 phone.

    What phone are you talking about ?

    Web browsing on Edge is terrible. Very few websites even work.
