Writing this with Microsoft Lumia 950, JellyComb Bluetooth keyboard-touchpad, Miracast wireless HDMI adapter and Samsung TV. It works. USB OTG is also great - mouse and keyboard and usb headset and usb memory stick all plugged into phone, with Miracast or HDMI, or even just the phone screen. Microsoft have fixed many bugs this year. There are still some. Continuum is now usable, portable, PC power in a smartphone. Office Apps. Outlook mail. Improved Calendar. People. Banking Apps. Wallet for some banks so far for tap-to-pay. iPlayer projected to TV through Miracast - or YouTube. Replacable battery and SD card. Dual Sim option. i-Boating for sailors. Bright white case, light weight plastic, replacable back cover, with variety of cases. Excellent camera. Qi wireless charging. Cortana voice activation allows you to take notes, create reminders, write emails or sends texts hands-free while driving -with some skill. Downloadable Here Maps from Microsoft Maps gives voice directions. Yes there are some bugs remaining. It is very new, very capable, very effective, and much in need of love and nourishment, as a platform, as a device. It doesn't amaze me that these are not better received, because many people are invested in other mobile platforms. It does take some patience and persistence to wield such a significant toolset. If Microsoft wants to do well in productive mobile computing, which I hope they do, they would do well to recognise how good this technology is, sell it at the great value prices as they are at the moment, resolve the bugs, improve the bundling and advertise the capability. Make people aware of what it can do. Certainly there is potential for a great Microsoft phone experience - this is my second such phone as an investment. Honestly, there is more potential for consistent improvement with Windows Phone, with several reboots along the way. Maybe I'm old fashioned but I'd rather have capability with a reboot, than neither. Through the looking glass.Read full review
