++ the future of Microsoft Lumia mobile phones ++

That's true, at least partly, because it is never too late.

It is only true in that they have already sold off/dissipated their former mobile assets, fully irreversibly mostly on the hardware side. Annoyed a lot of good people by doing that and there is no easy way back, that’s right.

The mobile OS itself is still quite competitive with or without minor adjustments. So, if they wanted, they could easily come back by offering it in licensing mode (without hardware, akin early Android), writing a couple of solid productivity apps, offering support for writing main media/comm apps etc.

The point though is, their 'leadership’ made a way more drastic decision; as I was outlining earlier the current matter in question is their OS making (all of it) as such and all the consumer space.

Another point is that the 'leadership' needs to be informed of the opinions of some of the longest-term company's customers. By the way, before on Microsoft forums there used to be some very friendly atmosphere for discussions. Acceptive of ideas and opinions. Nowadays, some have been sleeping for decades probably to wake up suddenly in democratic society where respect to an opinion of others is taken for granted to their surprise. Even if it’s coming from what they consider as a minority. Disgusting! Even more disgusting, they have a title of ‘moderator’, almost unimaginable. Quite reflective of what the company becomes though, so still useful to know.

you're literally 3 years too late. Your expectations argument is junk. Once Microsoft made the announce of ending mobile. any expectation disappeared. 

Microsoft is irreverent in new tech. move on

Dear,

I understand your point of view, & I saw that you are a valuable person In this community from your profile but there is a point here & that is " Expectations " I'm not talking about the time any person understood the end of support thing, I'm talking about a loyal customer which has always enjoyed working with Microsoft products & services & advertised a lot.

From my point of view " Decision is made " is not appropriate sentence from a global corporation in the scales of Microsoft. if I think so it may mean that my Expectations from Microsoft is super high ! 

Phone is the most frequently used Device that every person deal with every day & this decision will remove some major repetitive Microsoft Environment feelings & affects for the ones who love to continue working with it ( since others already switched to other platforms )& it may lead to affect on other services view of these customers. ( Even Cloud ! )

We actually doubled our efforts to inform our worries to Microsoft since we even couldn't believe it's really happening...

That's why we have got hope about what we are insisting...

Thanks for your time

Dear All,

I have raised a suggestion in user voice, please go and Vote, Actually I tried to get familiar with other OSs in phones but I just want to continue working with Windows Phone.

Suggestion title is " Save Windows phone & inject hope for continue supporting Windows 10 on Phones for a special Target Market "

Please go to following link & Vote I know it will work : 

https://microsoftforms.uservoice.com/forums/386451-welcome-to-microsoft-forms-suggestion-box/suggestions/37313488-save-windows-phone-inject-hope-for-continue-supp

My comments & Ideas are into this link. Also I have raised the same in Microsoft community.

There were big impossible Ideas which has finally accepted by Microsoft because of number of Votes. (Like "give the people of Iran access to Microsoft Store in Windows 10" ,                                 Do you remember ?)

Please tell it to all people with same Idea to vote. Let's get United & request them .

On behalf of all the people of the world who wants to continue using Windows Phone & need Microsoft supports.

There was already a global online petition on the same issue, it barely got 15 000 people to support it worldwide. You are wasting your time, the decision was taken more than 2 and half years ago, it cannot and will not be reversed. The fact that you and a couple of other people only woke up to the fact when Microsoft reminded users about the upcoming end of support a few weeks ago does not mean this is something new and is open to debate.

This discussion has already been done years ago, as I already mentioned, there is nothing new to to add to it and it will change nothing. Good luck with your campaign on UserVoice, but it will lead to nothing unfortunately. It would be best if you simply let go and move on, there is no point in wasting any time and effort on this hopeless lost cause.

That's the way to go...
