Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Soon MS will stop providing support for all lower / mid range dual core Lumia's

yeah windows 10 will be the last update. Whatever is next in 2016.. 10.1 ... will have minimum specs of 1 gb ram. I'm sure.
But still the support has been marvellous.

I think they will keep releasing updates but without most newer features etc
they wont repeat WP7's fiasco again im sure
WP7 nearly killed WP's popularity

I think MS's plan is to gain marketshare by replacing android on popular handsets as a ROM + Lumias as exclusive phones with exclusive apps
just like Nexus and android but minus fragmentation , "performance-crippling" updates etc

Whatever they do I am with them till they do not piss me off properly. I am half pissed at them for not releasing a new flagship.

That's the actual cost of the phone. It'll be more with tax-related-stuffs when it comes to market.

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Around 9 k after taxes etc for 640 is good imo...
I'm waiting for good price drop of 730 may get that around 11k.

Lumia 635 with 512MB itself itself, costs 10K. So, L640 will be definitely be >10K (say 10-11K) and L640XL be 12-13K.

yeah..i have a feeling that 640 will be around that price bracket.( 10-11k).. anything lower than that is gonna hurt 535's market.

if that happens it would be good for MS. Since 1320 is a good device and making it more affordable to the masses.

not really
other than the larger display, camera,cpu
theres not much of a difference between the two
people who want smaller form factor might buy 535
or 535 might even get a price drop

still theres always a chance of taxes increasing the price of the phone to higher

what else is important apart from display, cpu & camera ?? ( that is a big change..The SD200 in 535 is much behind than the SD400 in 640..

& if 535 gets a drop, markets of 532 & 435 will get affected

You won't feel that sd200 is lagging behind a lot when using the device.
