++ 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 +

    I cannot access the Statista data because I will not pay $49 a month just for that. The Kantar report from here:

    https://us.kantar.com/tech/mobile/2018/apple-iphone-8-drives-os-share-growth-in-us/

    shows 1.3% share for Windows in the US in June 2017 and 0.1% in June 2018. I think you might be looking at the wrong year when you are claiming over 1% in the US, which was one of the weakest markets for Windows phones globally anyway.

    • the Kantar data is in my post from July 17 & it covers data from March 2018 via GSM arena // sometimes you can access Statista data free & in this case the data shows 0.8% market share for April 2018.
