Yes, indeed! Windows mobile is now exclusive rarity! I really enjoy this!
For example how many Idol 4 Pro were sold in total?

++ 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 +

2018-08-13T07:38:56+00:00 Nice thoughts (as always) but whilst not impossible the likelihood certainly approaches zero; platitudes and hope won't change strategic plans. The best we can hope for is a re-invention of Windows in a mobile form factor as the article Cfordg linked implies.
What Apple's success has shown is that most people don't care what's under the hood as long as it runs properly most of the time, is functional and well designed. Trying to force the windows architecture into a form it was never designed for by providing a kludgy skin is where MS screwed up. If they've acknowledged that and moved on then there is some hope of an MS written Mobile OS in the future but I highly doubt it will look/feel like W10M and probably won't be on a Smartphone form factor as we know it today - and that shouldn't matter at all as long as it works.

2018-08-13T07:35:41+00:00 Whilst I don't share Szilard Lazar unfettered enthusiasm for the current situation I recently bought a 'new old stock' Lumia phone and it works fine, my five year old 920 was also working fine until I dropped it on a tiled floor. The HTC and Samsung phones I bought before that both slowed to a crawl with minimal battery life after 18 months and my daughter's Iphones have to be replaced every two years because Apple cripple them 'for safety reasons'.
The state of MS Mobile may be parlous and I too am frustrated with the steadily dwindling supply of working/updated apps (Kindle is a particular bugbear for me) but the direction Apple has pushed the market and Android has striven to follow *must* be challenged or we will be nickle and dime'd to penury by micro transactions and the inability to move out of the walled gardens to a properly competitive market place. Whether or not MS are the best company to find a new direction I (strongly) doubt but they are the best of limited alternatives at the moment
