Irony...

It runs android though, it will be like a McLaren P1 car towing a horsebox. The 950XL is like a Lotus Exige - doesn't need a v8 to be quick. Try running android L or M on a dual core 1gb ram phone - its crap, yet an unoptimised win 10 preview works smoother on even a 512mb equipped lumia 520.

The 950 XL looks lovely (for an extra £50 you might as well get the best).

Anyone posting performance comparisons is simply an idiot. The phone is not yet released and there have been no proper tests. You can compare specs but to judge a device on this alone makes you the sort of person who likes willy waving contests.

There are a few nice features which could attract people, particularly business. Personally, I would not buy one until there have been some big name reviews.

The magic word "continuum"!. Were looking at dishing out these instead of laptops for our staff. Seriously Microsoft need to push this more as its main feature!:man:

Who would buy this? It's not even a top of the range cpu.

Hence the price....

same cpu and ram as moto x style which is £360, this will probably have a better camera though, but with top end windows phones being few and far between and not that popular microsoft have missed a chance here, if this was around the £350 mark I think it would stand a chance of selling well but not at this price.

lol

Good phone but I will be getting the lumia 950xl.

Too expensive yes, However still much more better value than an iphone.!

This is bordering z5 price. Which is better in every respect.

I'd probably have bitten at a RRP of £400 (for the XL). Hot for those who have more money though :wink:
