The issue on the Lumia is that it is the flagships that are missing the SD slot.

yup agree. that is the only thing that stops me from using 930. I have a 735 and love it. got 64gig sd in it.

I believe the apple guys don't complain is because they don't have a choice :-)

anyhow fortunately the 950 has sd slot

The issue on the Lumia is that it is the flagships that are missing the SD slot, unlike iPhones where it was never available. I have a 930 and I do like it except that I was able to carry more photos and music on my 820 :disappointed:

For whatever reason it suits iPhone owners without complaint!

Absolutely, some will have no problem with 32gb. But I don't think that would apply to the majority, certainly not these days as apps & games get more complex and a LOT bigger in mb/gb

I did mention earlier criticism for this phone not having a card slot....although with 32gb memory that is not a problem for everyone including my wife who is fine with it....as it seems some iPhone owners are with their limitations. Personally I wouldn't want a phone without but that's me.

Nothing to do with deserved criticism for NOT putting them in right up to and including the likes of this one, with a few exceptions ?

As of 0925 22/01/16.....BACK IN STOCK.

Actually most Nokia Lumias do come with SD card slots in recent years, which is also now continuing with Microsoft Lumia.

It's baffling, true.
Its such a cracking phone, the Lumia Windows phone, theres plenty apps despite the reputation, but its that lack of sd slot in so many. Badly lets the thing down

Most Lumia's DO actually have SD card slots. However virtually all the flagship models don't such as units based around the 920 & 930 (Icon, 925 etc) and the 1020. Why they did this I have no idea as the 830 could end up with 3x the storage of the 930 :/

YES. "most" - majority of Lumias are without SD slots
This does not apply to Android phones. Android phones massively outsell Windows phones.
Not main reason, but certainly one of the main reasons
Lumias ARE good phones.
Badly let down by the daft decision of refusing to put in an SD slot

Can't say anything bad about my 930,great phone,camera,battery life....has never let me down....the old flagship phone still competes well,just waiting for Windows 10 update! Will never sell it even when upgraded,just too good to let go!

The big let down with most Nokia Wimdows phones is - NO SD slot.
It caused a lot of people to give them a miss.
A shame. Good phones, but how stupid to keep ignoring what people are asking for.

OOS Would have picked up for a play around. However teh 950 may be cheaper soon when they dont sell at their full price ha ha

Initially was in basket saying out of stock then went back few min later and went to basket and let me order.

Anyone with unlocking experience? Thanks

expire

damm missed wanted too soboO

Really a great phone, for this price its a steal.
Honestly better than an IPhone 6s and a Samsung galaxy s6

Just managed to order. Thanks op

available for click and collect. heat added.

the only reason I am not going for this is that there is no sd card slot on this. I really need big local storage. I know, I am weird :-)

Good price though

Got one from work, buy one if you enjoy your phone becoming 4000 degrees, is ridiculous how hot this phone gets. Also there are no apps at all, for a high end handset all the major apps go through 3rd parties and non work correctly. Even facebook doesn't work, only loads pages you like and not your normal facebook wall. I never used it after 2 weeks

Must have had a return! Damn. Only 5 minutes and I still missed it.

EXPIRED! missed it.

Back in stock, you can un-expire.

holly crap this phone is the best ever lumia. that was some serious deal

I bought one of these brand new, sold it on after 3 weeks, mine got so hot on the metal shell when using it, also most of the apps were by third party dev, very poor app support, shame as I really liked the phone, still a good price above

As O2 aren't meant to include chargers with refurbished phones is there a recommended brand to consider apart from getting official charger.

​thanks for believing, however as a previous owner of a nokia 930, and current owner or a s5 and a iPhone 5s I talk from experience, thanks for your opinion though :wink:

Wife has one of these, really nice premium build quality and gorgeous OLED screen, and fantastic camera. Main problem I find is the absurd lack of storage.

The back of these is not really an issue. The SIM tray can be removed and you can easily use a bent paperclip to release the clip in that position holding on the back cover and then proceed to unpop all remaining clips to take off the back cover and replace with whatever colour option you like from eBay sellers.

If anyone who got one is after a case, I recommend Snakehive. I've bought a few from this company. Very good quality, the leather ones are real leather. Very reasonable prices.

Damn, was too late, I've been looking out for one of these for ages.

Damn! Missed it. Green isn't a problem - it's a bonus. The green ones come with a silver frame and you can swap the backs out for whatever colour you want. Well spotted OP, I just didn't get there fast enough :disappointed:

This is a great 'previous generation' phone but not in the same league as the 950. Or 950lx or even (imho) the 1520

oos

that was limited....

Now listed as "Out of stock for home delivery".

Are these easy to unlock, fancy trying a good spec windows phone for windows 10 when the upgrade comes.
