++ 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 +
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
That Wiley Fox new parent is running a production is good news but tempered by the fact that its highlighting MS support will stop shortly.
Being a hub for F1 is not the same as being a hub for scale manufacturing of consumer devices, I think it would be a struggle to get the pricing right if you use UK suppliers for anything other than prototypes
I would love to see MS make a decision to revive mobile but not until they've fixed their issues with mass market support
I'm fairly sure the Katy Perry video was a product placement during the launch - though I may be wrong.
The on-going use of Lumia in business is, sadly, more a reflection on resistance to change than genuine desire to maintain the brand, if it were otherwise there would be the same pressure to maintain support for W10M as there was/is for XP
Space is fine because you won't have too many more updates, and since there isn't many apps. And if you need help with it, jump in a time machine back to 2015, and look for the other company that released it back then.
This is just getting funny now.
Also, i hear there is a new Windows 95 laptop coming out
From a Microsoft email, sent out to companies and anyone subscribed to its quarterly 'lifecycle' newsletter, here are some selected lines of interest:
Microsoft provides industry-leading lifecycle policies – in length and provision – giving customers consistent, transparent, and predictable software support and servicing guidelines.
IMPORTANT: Security fixes are NO LONGER available for unsupported products. It is recommended to upgrade as soon as possible before this date.
On October 9, 2018 the following products will NO longer be supported:
• Windows 10 Mobile (released in Aug. 2016)
On June 11, 2019 the following products will NO longer be supported:
• Windows 10 Mobile (released in April 2017)
Which is as expected. Thus branch 1607 ('Anniversary Update'), first rolled out in August 2016, will cease to be supported as of Patch Tuesday in October this year, while the same will happen in June 2019 to branch 1703 ('Creators Update'), and so on.
Passion, persuasion, persistence, ....beginning to pay off.
