"Very good phone with good specs, performance and quality"

"As a two-year user of Windows phone, I was enthusiastic about getting this device, but have had to initiate return as I am massively disappointed in the battery life"

"It has all the other great features of a later Nokia/Microsoft handset - clean, fast and uncluttered Windows Phone interface; great camera & picture quality; excellent, hardy physical design with dedicated camera button and good audio quality; and I was optimistic about the possibilities the Continuum/Display Dock feature would provide after the bugs were ironed out"

"EDIT: In response to a comment on this review, recommending "a good couple of days" of use before calling the battery poor and referencing the "norm with other Windows Phones" I'd like to re-iterate that this was my third Windows Phone, and add that I posted the review/returned the product after a full seven days of use, progressively reducing the demands I made on it with every day after the three-day mark and gaining no increase in battery performance - no matter what I did"

" Could have been a better phone if it was offered in price bracket of Rs"

"Camera - The BEST smartphone camera that your money can buy today (I am considering Nokia 808, Lumia 1020, Lumia 1520, Lumia 930, Galaxy S7 and the (in)famous Xperia Z5)"

" Its feels amazing and brings out the premium look of the phone"

"1) The phone is great in overall performance"

" This phone has best camera till date"

"If u r a lumia fan, this is perfect phone for u till date"

"If u r coming from android, I m sure u'll love this phone as it has now basically all apps that we need for day to day use"

" Plus its more secure than android phones"

"If you are Windows Fan it's best ever phone i have seen,But Looking to the Reliance JIO Launch In India, It is not Supporting VoLTE on JIO Network , you won't be able to Make Phone Calls"

" Display is amazing, leaving all that advanced specs aside, its very vibrant, and even with the lowest of brightness, you will hardly feel the difference"

"The QHD screen is impressive and the phone excels in low light photography"

" The phones performance is consistent without any throttling and the call quality is excellent with its 4 directional microphones"

" With Iris scanner, hardware encryption and continuum, this is a perfect office phone"

" The best phone at this price, seems like my wait was worth it"

"Always been a windows fan and after using 950 for just few days will say Windows is the future just amazing phone great OS and no match to its camera"

"For docking, I think waiting for a snapdragon 820 chipset phone might be worthwhile"

"I was using lumia 720 from april 2013 and liked 720 very much, from last few months i have another office no so want to buy dual sim phone and very much confused as i dont want to use android phones"

"after using 5 days of lumia 950 i can say that my decision to stick with windows phones is right and i totally love the phone in every aspect"

"Superb Camera and specs are just not comparable with any other mobile, solid build"

" But the battery life is Great, provided one knows how to control charge draining applications, solutions for which, the OS generously bestows"

" USB type C charger works as they marketed"

" With 3000mAh , battery is sufficient enough"

" It's still enough to last a full day, but you'll more than likely need to charge it every night if you're a heavy user"

" It also supports wireless charging, and is compatible with regular Qi charge mats"

" The 15W charger provided charges the phone really fast, that helps with battery issue"

"*Battery Back up has improved drastically, i could get through almost 2 days of normal usage"

"3000 mAh battery - good battery life"

"Type C usb - lightening fast charging - charges more than 50% battery in less than 30 minutes"

"The main reason I love windows phone is the amazing battery life, 36 months promised updates and of course the premium camera sensors"

"Windows phone have always been better in terms of battery life they offer"

"Though with Lumia 950 the battery life is just decent"

"The battery is replaceable which is great if somehow you got the battery damaged after the guarantee period"

"There is nothing like a battery draining issue "

"There is a battery saver mode in windows 10 which works pretty well and does help getting through the day with enough juice remaining in the end"

"It has a beautiful screen, removable battery, removable/replaceable case, slick fast operating system, and with a USB-c to HDMI, dock, and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse is a PC in your pocket"

" Running one Microsoft account (Mail, Calendar & Contacts) and WhatsApp - having uninstalled all other possible apps, put on 25% brightness, blocked all apps except Phone, Message & WhatsApp from running in the background and with neither WiFi nor Bluetooth on, it dies within 8 hours of removing from the charger, even in good cellular coverage regions"

"VERY SLIM AND AWESOME LOOKS WITH REMOVABLE BATTERY"

" Battery, Removable and good mAH abttery"

" You will again need to check for updates to get to 10586.318 build (super stable build with no battery or heating issues)"

" I would recommend doing power cycling (complete charge and discharge till 10%) for 3-4 times and then you should have a stable battery"

" Don't follow this practice after initial phase as this is Li-ion battery and doesn't suffer from battery memory loss effect (Google it to find out more)"

" General thumb rule is to keep the battery over 35-40% at all times to maintain a healthy battery for the phone"

"Battery - Good enough for one day"

" But this also gives us advantage of removable battery"

" The matte polycarbonate encasing is cool to touch but does get considerably warm while using quick charge"

" The battery life is fine, i get one full day with 24/7 3g net on, two emails sync, with glance screen set to 30min timeout, Iris scanning turned on "

"GREAT CAMERA AND DISPLAY || HONEST AND DETAILED REVIEW || Read this before you buy"

"good phone great camera"

"Excellent camera, network connection"

"Findings: Best camera ever in Lumia and compared with Galaxy note 5"

"Awesome camera"

" While its Peacekeeper score of 750 isn't particularly promising on paper, web pages loaded quickly and it didn't stutter over images or embedded videos either"

" Weighing 150g and measuring 8.2mm thick, the Lumia 950 is reasonably chunky for its size, but its smooth plastic rear does sit well in your hand"

" Colour accuracy is also very high, covering 99.6% of the sRGB colour gamut, and its infinity:1 contrast ratio means that images look absolutely stunning"

"All this doesn't sound particularly promising, but the Lumia 950 does have one redeeming feature: its rear 20-megapixel camera"

" Regardless of whether I had our external lamp turned on or off, the Lumia 950 produced stunning photos, showing plenty of detail, rich, vibrant colours and hardly any noise to speak of"

" Its triple LED flash also produces beautifully clean images, maintaining an accurate colour balance without making lighter objects appear green or blue"

" You probably won't need to use it that often when the flash is so good in the first place, but it's still a brilliant tool to have if you're not particularly pleased with the end result"

"---------PROS---------► Continuum► Camera---------CONS---------► Battery► Performance In General► Native App Selection-------------VERDICT-------------The Lumia 950 has a superb camera and Windows 10 Continuum is a revelation, but it's crippled by sluggish performance and a mediocre battery✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽PLEASE REVIEW THE IMAGES FOR MORE INFO✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽“I HOPE, MY REVIEW WOULD BE HELPFUL TO YOU"

"The videos the photos look great,nothing to complain here"

"Live tiles, like the Photo tile, really are nice, with the latest news scrolling on the News tile, latest apps for sale on the Store button etc"

"The camera quality is truly great and no surprise here"

"The pictures are very well saturated to give that natural look with a slighter touch of bright colours"

" There is also this really cool feature when taking a flash photo where you can change the lighting effect to reduce the effect of the flash, which really improved some harshly lit photos"

" If you prioritise a great screen, good camera, expandable memory and CONTANIUM then look no further"

" For Camera lovers this is the one to go for"

"It has all the other great features of a later Nokia/Microsoft handset - clean, fast and uncluttered Windows Phone interface; great camera & picture quality; excellent, hardy physical design with dedicated camera button and good audio quality; and I was optimistic about the possibilities the Continuum/Display Dock feature would provide after the bugs were ironed out"

" Camera, its good"

" I personally have purchased it for the joy of using a beautiful OS along with the best smartphone camera available today"

"Camera - The BEST smartphone camera that your money can buy today (I am considering Nokia 808, Lumia 1020, Lumia 1520, Lumia 930, Galaxy S7 and the (in)famous Xperia Z5)"

" The best camera3"

" Camera was excellent at start but now it's shaking like anything"

" Camera is superb, the captured images and videos are very sharp and produces apt color"

"Superb Camera and specs are just not comparable with any other mobile, solid build"

" It could just about manage simple 3D games like Beach Buggy Racing, but controls weren't particularly responsive and I even experienced frame rate drops in 2D games like Jetpack Joyride"

" Its super fast, the hexacore and ram make this device a lean mean graphics processor,; from streaming videos to playing games, there is NO lag at all"

"- Friends please do not blame about the heating issues unless ur mobile is upgraded with latest firmware & OS Build (though there is a minor heating issue which is available on every Snapdragon mobiles)"

" Lumia 950 does not have heating problem once firmware is updated"

" WhatsApp: Eats huge memory so better to re-install once in a month and do not forget to take back-up before uninstalling"

" Don't follow this practice after initial phase as this is Li-ion battery and doesn't suffer from battery memory loss effect (Google it to find out more)"

"great screen"

" Its has got best display around in the market"

"The screen is super sharp and vibrant,"

"First the good things - Fantastic Display and camera performance "

" Dual sim, free display dock(preorder offer)"

" Good display and lots of features that changed the perception of using windows mobile"

" That might not sound like a long time, but in the context of a mobile operating system, it's enough to make you question whether you even tapped the screen correctly, which just isn't good enough when you're spending this amount of money"

"Battery life, however, was a little underwhelming, as its 3,000mAh battery lasted just 10h 01m in my continuous video playback test with the screen brightness set to 170cd/m2"

" This really makes the refreshed Live Tile interface of Windows 10 jump out of the screen, delivering pitch perfect 0.00cd/m2 blacks in the notification bar and individual settings options"

" This is just about enough to see the screen clearly outside, but overhead lights or bright sunshine play havoc with its visibility, even when brightness is set to max"

" Its camera and Windows 10 Continuum are fantastic, but its day-to-day performance, battery life and low screen brightness just aren't quite good enough to warrant a whole-hearted recommendation"

" Fantastic display with a great camera and super fast operation"

" The DISPLAY is amazing, watching videos or viewing pictures is a treat"

"5.2 Screen, 564 ppi - Awesome clarity"

" The clarity on the screen is awesome"

"Free Display Dock after 20 days of purchase is surprising"

"The OLED display with Nokia's clear black technology looks fabulous"

"Its one of the sharpest and brightest display present in the market"

"The light sensors does the job flawlessly in adjusting the screen brightness"

"As seen in most of the windows phone ,it also has this super sensitive touch screen for using it with gloves and It does matter a lot"

" The start screen looks so dynamic With windows 10 in this phone, you can expand external memory upto 200GB"

"The on-screen time is comparably better than other flagships with full HD + displays"

" If you prioritise a great screen, good camera, expandable memory and CONTANIUM then look no further"

"It has a beautiful screen, removable battery, removable/replaceable case, slick fast operating system, and with a USB-c to HDMI, dock, and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse is a PC in your pocket"

"AWESOME DISPLAY AND FEATURES"

" Display, Impressive"

"in and register your device to receive a free Continuum display dock (market price is 6000 rupees)"

" To compare, remember that Sony TV that you saw at the mall which was priced at 100000, this will match that screen in terms of vividness, clarity and colour reproduction"

"3) The display is excellent, QHD display with AMOLED screen, the phone has sunlight readability setting, it is very bright even under sunlight"

" We just need to look on the top of the screen to unlock the phone, so simple"

" Display is amazing, leaving all that advanced specs aside, its very vibrant, and even with the lowest of brightness, you will hardly feel the difference"

" Post eecent updates the os has become very stable"

"must buy for Windows fan and all users who got bored with ios and android"

" Windows Phone 10 does indeed feel refreshing even for Windows Phone 8.1 Users"

" If you are Windows fan , you wouldnt mind much and things are to improve as OS keeps on improving"

"Windows hello beta is great, but works only when the handset is about 1 foot away from the eyes"

"As expected its a seamless windows experience"

" Before start to use you need to update firmware by using windows device recovery tool by using PC , then OS update "

" OS improvement"

"Thanks to Windows 10's universal apps, everything on your phone, from Edge, Office, Maps and Cortana right down to the layout of your Start screen, now looks virtually identical to what's on your desktop, delivering the same kind of user experience regardless of which platform you happen to be using"

" This is a real shame, as there's clearly a lot of potential here, but when it costs this much on a contract, you're paying a lot for something that doesn't feel nearly as slick as its Android rivals"

"---------PROS---------► Continuum► Camera---------CONS---------► Battery► Performance In General► Native App Selection-------------VERDICT-------------The Lumia 950 has a superb camera and Windows 10 Continuum is a revelation, but it's crippled by sluggish performance and a mediocre battery✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽PLEASE REVIEW THE IMAGES FOR MORE INFO✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽“I HOPE, MY REVIEW WOULD BE HELPFUL TO YOU"

" The apps might be an issue for some, but i found the 3rd party apps far better than their android counterparts"

" WINDOWS HELLO is great, cant wait to get my hands on the CONTINUUM dock"

" I feel the new OS is good now"

"Buy only if u like windows 10 UI, else u gonna regret for sure"

"The main reason I love windows phone is the amazing battery life, 36 months promised updates and of course the premium camera sensors"

"But that doesn't mean i hate android"

"WINDOWS 10- is it a perfect OS"

"Microsoft is doing the best they could and should do to improve the OS and its functionality"

" The start screen looks so dynamic With windows 10 in this phone, you can expand external memory upto 200GB"

" And of course most of the good quality apps are paid ,while the same app runs free on ANDROID DEVICES (with annoying ads)"

"FOR EXAMPLE: The amazon app available in windows phone store doesn't have many features that android's amazon app has"

"FINALLY i would say, windows phone 10 OS is very beautiful ,decently feature rich and a lot customisable"

"The ability to adjust exposure and stuff with windows 10 camera and that even while the recording is live, is a good feature windows phone has"

"There is a battery saver mode in windows 10 which works pretty well and does help getting through the day with enough juice remaining in the end"

"Though i can guarantee you that windows Phone OS is great in its own class"

"- Friends please do not blame about the heating issues unless ur mobile is upgraded with latest firmware & OS Build (though there is a minor heating issue which is available on every Snapdragon mobiles)"

" Agree, Apps are not as stable like other OS"

"* Once OS gets stable then we can hope App developers get a chance to work more accurately"

" Video calling: I can find only "LINE" till now apart from SKYPE (Works only on Windows 10 after October, 2016) though Viber is listed with Video calling availability"

"## IMO most of the users 98/100 already used Android/IOS and started using Windows so they know how Windows works better than other stuff"

" The windows office suite works great and you get desktop experience for outlook, word a excel powerpoint etc, sync of contacts calenders is easy"

"It has all the other great features of a later Nokia/Microsoft handset - clean, fast and uncluttered Windows Phone interface; great camera & picture quality; excellent, hardy physical design with dedicated camera button and good audio quality; and I was optimistic about the possibilities the Continuum/Display Dock feature would provide after the bugs were ironed out"

"You cannot enjoy the phone completely until the OS becomes stable"

"Overall, Quality is compromised, hardware is upgraded along with the OS ,mainly continuum and windows hello to be excited about"

"nice windows"

" First tip to new buyers, update the firmware through Windows Device Recovery Tool (connect and update through a PC) as soon as you get the phone"

" I personally have purchased it for the joy of using a beautiful OS along with the best smartphone camera available today"

" I still have an Android tablet and I love Android when I want to tinker but I prefer the reliability and ease of use of Windows Phone (now Windows Mobile - I don't know why they keep changing the names)"

"OS - This depends on personal preferences but of course I personally prefer the effortlessness of Windows OS"

" I advise you to please upgrade the firmware via Windows Device Recovery Tool immediately after u get the phone"

" Plus its more secure than android phones"

"If you are Windows Fan it's best ever phone i have seen,But Looking to the Reliance JIO Launch In India, It is not Supporting VoLTE on JIO Network , you won't be able to Make Phone Calls"

" Then use the "Windows device recovery tool" to update, and then the phone can update itself going forward"

"after using 5 days of lumia 950 i can say that my decision to stick with windows phones is right and i totally love the phone in every aspect"

"The speakers sound output also sounds great"

" Imagine being away from your phone, and you feel like listening to some music, all you need to say is," Hey Cortana"

" Sound: For a mobile speaker, its quite impressive"

" Speakers are clear and loud enough"

" Loud and clear speakers8"

"As seen in most of the windows phone ,it also has this super sensitive touch screen for using it with gloves and It does matter a lot"

"The pictures are very well saturated to give that natural look with a slighter touch of bright colours"
