++ the future of Microsoft Lumia mobile phones ++

++ 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 +

    @rbasin: 

    Do you try to convince someone about his own opinion?

    I ask you the same way, if Windows is so dead why are you so busy to press under the surface of the water?

    MS has a site where product lifecycles are shown: Here

    The UWP is a platform, and in many cases the apps are exactly the same on desktop and on phone. If you use Continuum then it also scales the same way like on desktop. So after more than a year the OS support may end, but plenty UWP apps will be sill in top shape. 

    @93tid: yes "on rare occasions", on almos every case, like a paid driod chatbot :)

    • there are some months to save the Windows that never sleeps  📱 & in my opinion without a solid Lumia line, a foldable device (which could act as a flagship) can hardly reach an important market share (some maybe will be interested in foldable devices, but the majority will like to have a solid 📱). The competition is not theirs ++ you can look at this ridiculous article: https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/3/17933644/microsoft-android-apps-windows-10-app-mirroring-report  // they are a special app developer & this is it, nothing more // as a company you can build effective cooperation, interaction etc & if this action is profitable, then think about the future & invest in your base, because even a space rocket needs a launch pad & in the future cloud will not be enough & the growth will not be sustainable //

    ++ keep calm basin if things go -, then still can activate Windows XP (like in the Transformers 2007 movie)  📱📱

    hmm, so if google makes a security & bug fix and the OEM needs additional weeks/months to add their own crap to it, then shall we consider it as an advantage?

    No. But releasing bug fixes to fix something broken by the previous month's "fix" only to have it broken again the following month to be fixed again one month later is hardly a glowing recommendation either - especially when it's the same OEM for both hardware and OS.

    anyway, if w10m is so rubbish as you eager to tell, why are you even bothering to reply?

    I generally try to resist, however on rare occasions I can't help myself from responding to the incoherent nonsense sometimes posted in this thread, especially when the same false premises are repeated over and over and over and over again.

    • the fact is that Windows 10 mobile, version 1709 receives more security updates than the vast majority of the competition

    The fact that W10M requires more patches and bug fixes than the competition is not something to consider an advantage.

    the gap to the newest versions of the competition is only single digit % points

    OK, I give up - anyone got any clue what this is referring to ?

    as a regular customer it is only short sightedness to envy the fail of one of the competitors!
