I love this phone despite all of hate,I would still want to have it, the design is perfect 👌
aw13, 09 Dec 2016However, the Alcatel is only on T-MobileIt's finally available unlocked at Microsoft Store.

Now Liquid Jade Primo bundle (with dock, keyboard and mouse) on Boxing Day sale at Microsoft store at C$399. Despite of price, I prefer 950XL (I bought it on Pre-Christmas sale with the same price)
Because
1. Acer Liquid Jade Primo has less LTE bands supported. (Not so good for World Traveler)
2. Acer Liquid Jade Primo has limitation for 2 SIMs or 1 SIM and 1 Micro SD Card.
Yes, I touched/tested both in my hands at the store,
I felt somewhat Acer unit appears to be cheap, doesn't fit right in my palm.
Regardless, I don't need another cheap keyboard and mouse.
aw13, 09 Dec 2016However, the Alcatel is only on T-MobileIt's dual-SIM, you can use another SIM in the second slot.
Or you can go for the off-contract option while buying it and pay one time sum of $469.99, that way you would be able to buy it unlocked. However T-Mobile would still make you pay $20 extra for their SIM which would increase the overall price to $489, but still it isn't that pricey either.
About the SIM, well you are free to either use it or give it to any of your family member or just throw it away, giving away $20 extra isn't that big issue.

Filiberto, 29 Oct 2016You are right but this one is as big as the XL, so you shoud be comparing it to the XLAs of now the Alcatel Idol 4S Windows 10 edition which is powered by a way more powerful Snapdragon 820 processor, has 4 GB RAM and 64 GB of storage costs just $20 more than this device. And its build quality is leagues ahead of this phone and it ships with VR bundle.
Of course it doesn't ship with Continuum dock but one can easily buy it for $99.
This phone is literally destined to fail in the market because it's completely outgunned by other Windows 10 Mobile phones.

I see no reason why would anyone go for this device instead of XL.

Lol! at $50 extra one can buy a Lumia 950 XL. No one with his brain in right place is going to buy this phone.
I could be interested in obtaining this device for discounted price if not terrible design. It reminds me old Galaxy S3... Big soap bar.
Anonymous, 03 Oct 2016Wow windows 10 mobile ? Awesome ! Better than androlag Maybe it could have been, but it has the lousy, power draining 808 and a not too big 2800 mAh battery. Not that good for a high-end device. :-/

The rate of this device is shocking, one can get a Carl Zeiss camera prepared Lumia 950 at a lesser rate than this device. pay for my research paper

Although I've to say that build quality of this phone is better than Lumia 950 but still then people would obviously go for a Lumia device, especially when it's cheaper than this device.
I don't want to sound like a prick but this phone is an epic failure in the market due to its high price tag.
