That graph doesn't tell the true story. Microsoft simply hasn't released any flagship Lumia's in the past year and has waited to get Windows Phone 10 out. Could be a mistake, and it hasn't helped them. There's some really nice features in Windows Phone OS, however some of the apps are truly terrible.

The 950 was the flagship (snapdragon 808, 3GB RAM, 20MP awesome camera, premium materials) we'd been waiting 2 years for but even diehards have jumped ship. Great hardware, lovely OS, no apps :-(
Will Surface phone save the day?

Though not a biggie, note these come without a USB cable - as it's USB c, you probably won't have one laying around so will need to buy one at the same time.

Are you sure? My XL came with a USB-C cable, and when I ordered my free dock, that also came with a cable.

The one I ordered was listed as "missing accessories" though it still came with a charger. I looked it up and I believe it is supposed to come with both a charger and a separate USB-C lead (rather than them trying to just make the lead attach to the plug).
It also has wireless charging so I'm able to charge it using my Lumia 920 wireless charger. If you look at the list of features this phone has, it ticks ALOT of boxes

In reality is Continium any good? What do people who's used it think?

Yes it is a brilliant idea and in the real world [we do a lot of video marketing] a great concept..
However, this handset is a dumper, it should never have been made and really is a crappy
handset, with 3 year old tech that you can get elsewhere for £100 [ish] on other phones..
Heavy is spot on with the graph and not only has this and the XL failed to even get warm
where MSmobile needed it to as far as sales are going, the Blu Win HD [yes that one!] is
selling like hot cakes and can do everything [nearly] that this *should have been £199 in
the first place* handset can do..
If you are after a stop gap windows based OS phone, would suggest either the Blu Win
HD + Win 10 OS or just wait until MS realize these are still stupid money and sell them
off like the 550's ;-)

There were also the Lumia 950 XL for the same unbelievable price, which I bought. Just bookmark the page and just keep checking.
Many other Lumias also available.
EDIT: As of 03/02 the XL in black & white is back in stock @ £319.97
