++ the manufacturing process of Microsoft Lumia mobile phones is discontinued, but many of them are still in action and competitive. In my opinion, the timing for their launch alongside the first versions of Windows 10 mobile has been a problem (later versions of Windows 10 mobile are more competitive). I compare the path of Microsoft Lumia phones with the path of Mercedes F1 Team. If you have perseverance, you can win, but you need to have realistic intermediary goals. You must not be number one from the start, but rather be on the field, with competitive, distinctive devices (1% market share can be achieved with the core fans of Microsoft Windows). 1% is not a small number of users & translates to even more when we focus on Windows users. So my question is for Microsoft & fans // is it possible to continue the manufacturing process of Microsoft Lumias for the fans of the brand & Windows ? // ++  #theWindowsthatneversleeps +

    Sorry, but I can't let this almost criminal string of non-sequiturs on the long-lost topic go unchallenged.

    First, anybody quoting Mike Pence should know that one of his nicknames when he was in Congress was, "Mike Dense"; an allusion to his demonstrated inability to actually grasp the essentials as opposed to effectively parroting the party line. I'd be afraid to actually have to watch him figure out how to set up and run an actual W10 mobile phone. It won't be on YouTube unless SNL runs a skit.

    Second, Volkswagen established its position with a 4 cylinder, air-cooled engine in various configurations and frames. I know that because I rebuilt and ran any number of the little gems, both beetles and buses starting in the 1960's. You will note that VW quit building these years ago (their last plant was in South America) because the market changed. Do I miss them? Yes, for many reasons. Do I spin my wheels trying to organize and get VW to bring them back? No, because somewhere along the way I figured out that I had better things to do.

    The essential to be grasped is that the market has changed and manufacturing has ceased both for VW and W10 mobile phones. Sadly, however, we're stuck with Mr. Dense for the foreseeable future.

    Nokia Lumia 1020 and 2520 are still on 8.1 update. Don't understand why? But Lumia 950 is now on 10 which is very good. I hope they will continue manufacturing the smartphones so the fans of Microsoft must not have to go anywhere to buy other low specs mobiles at a high price.

    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4K7JgPJ8-s ++ the story of Lightning McQueen 95 from Cars 3 has reminded me the falling (but still existing) share of Windows Mobile handsets in the mobile world ++ "you will never be so fast, but can be smarter" ++ the users can greet the monthly updates for February 2019 for versions 1709, 1703 & 1607 is still in top shape & Windows Phone 8.1 Lumia Denim handsets still are worth to be kept & the OS is still in Bronze position & many updates to the apps & games //

    This exit door holds too many risks for the company's reputation, as Szilard's sentiments here reflect the feelings of millions of people out there...
