For the windows fan out there. Microsoft has massively dropped the price of this. You get a phone with 5.5" AMOLED Full HD display, 21MP camera and Dual SIM, 32GB storage/expandable to 128GB via microSD

Alot of mobile for the money, Sadly I think it's the end of the road for Windows phone.

Wow, will probably go cold but this is one hec of a lot of phone and functionality at this price!
Essentially this gives you a fantastic phone that is also a 'pseudo pc' ie when you plug in into a monitor and use the supplied keyboard and mouse you get what seems like a full blown PC with full blown office (and not just an enlarged mobile version, the screen is similar to a full PC so it is genuinely useful!)
* Though you don't actually need them as the phone can also be used itself.

Having been using a Lumia 950 for the last couple of days, if I ever saw another Windows phone again it would be too soon.
Even with the latest version of Windows 10 mobile, it was the most buggy, frustrating experience I've ever had with a phone.
If you're going to use this purely as a PC it may serve a (limited) purpose but don't expect anything from it as a phone. I wouldn't waste my money, IMO you'd be better off getting a Windows tablet with HDMI out.

Yes, but there is a problem with the software. There is no whatsapp, only a basic Facebook app, no Google apps, no Pokemon Go, in fact not very much in terms of quality or high profile apps at all. And in PC mode, you can only run universal apps, which excludes most programs. Great hardware, lack of software.

I don't think you get the dock, do you?

Nope. (display dock NOT included)
Still great value though!

Anyone know if you can get the student discount on top of this? I am unable to test myself as not a student but curious. Cheers
