++ 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 +

    The Launcher is terrible. 

    Couldn't agree more, absolutely awful, messed up my phone completely, worst experience ever in the 10 minutes it took me to get the stupid thing off my device.

    • 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 ?

    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?

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

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

    I can't start my True Caller... Anytime I try, it asks me to check my internet connection or no internet connection.....while data connection is on. What could be the problem....?

    • just have spotted an unusual high number of new Lumia 930s on EBAY ++ interesting trend & maybe it is new only for me

    ++ for Chris : https://www.windowslatest.com/2018/06/25/truecaller-ends-support-for-its-windows-phone-app/ ++ maybe your problem has to do something with this situation of discontinuation 

    ++ as for security updates : I have thought that new challenges need new patches & I sincerely think that the powerful competition cares not so much for their older OS versions //

    And Microsoft cares about older versions? 

    How is an old, relatively crappy phone on an awful website a trend? Unless the trend is attempting to pawn off bad phones on unsuspecting people without a warning of "OS is dead! Do not buy"!
