++ 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 +

    • // Windows Core OS could run on Lumia 950s (some independent developers or hackers has had success with the present technology as well just search the net) // 

    Windows Core OS does not exist yet, so don't see how it could run on anything.

    • phone production has been discontinued, because they cannot produce a much better phone than the Lumia 950s (cannot manufacture a game changer, so they optimize the Lumia line waiting for better days). You better sing "They don't care about us" than "This is it" // 

    There was a deluded Winphan who kept posting here for 3 years that the Surface phone is definitely going to be released in 2016, then it was 2017, then it was 2018 and finally he posted a month ago that he is moving over to the Nokia/HMD Global forums because he has given up on Windows and MS and got a Nokia Android. I am perfectly willing to wait and see how long it will take you to also wake up and smell the coffee/tea/roses (whatever you prefer).

    Phone production was discontinued because it was a hopeless cause and MS cut their losses. Nobody is optimizing the Lumia line, because it no longer exists in the plans of Microsoft and because there is no one left to work on it. I don't understand why you think that "This is it" and "They don't care about us" are mutually exclusive - I think they are both true and valid at the same time.

    +  you have to pay attention, there are still fans of the Lumia line inside Microsoft (just to be there, they have sold in this year some Lumias testing the fan base).

    You mean the couple of hundred 650s which someone found lying forgotten in a warehouse ? There no fans, there are no developers left, the whole team was sacked a year ago, there is just a skeleton crew fixing bugs.

    +There are chances that the Lumia 950s could run full Windows 10 OS

    Absolute, complete and utter total nonsense.
