Jeff, 06 Jul 2017Better than 950, are you kidding me, that glitzy junk may run on Windows 10 Mobile but it can'... moreLet me enlist the reasons:
Better processor, Snapdragon 820 on Alcatel Idol 4S Windows is way better than Snapdragon 808 on Lumia 950.
More RAM, 4 GB RAM on Alcatel.
More storage, 64 GB storage on Alcatel.
No overheating issues.
Dual front facing and dual rear facing stereo speakers.
The screen resolution may be lower than 950 but 1920 X 1080 is quite good resolution and puts less strain on battery, the screen resolution of 950 is complete overkill.
Better build quality, glass and metal construction.
Slimmer design, easier to carry and feels better in hand.
Camera may not be a Carl-Zeiss optics camera but it isn't bad either.
Costs just $275, which makes it cheaper than Lumia 950.

Glass body which can slip and break anytime, no NFC, inferior camera, inferior screen resolution, I don't see a single good reason why would anyone prefer to buy that Alcatel Idol 4S Windows over Lumia 950.

Disable the brightness auto adjustment and manually change the brightness if required. See if your problem goes away.

Have you lost it, glass body can never be as durable as a metal or polycarbonate body. No matter how much metal flame you put between the glass if the phone falls that glass body will crack like an egg.

All the feature I need are available on Alcatel Idol 4S Windows, it has a way better and way more stable processor, it has better RAM management and twice the storage of this phone, it's design is beautiful. The most important thing is that it has features equivalent of HP Elite x3 at a price lesser than Lumia 950, I bought the factory unlocked Alcatel Idol 4S Windows from Amazon at just $275.
And just because it uses glass body doesn't mean that it isn't durable.

It just not working. I'm ok with windows environment instead of Android, but the phone is not functioning properly. It's not ringing when you get a message on viber, WhatsApp, or facebook messenger, it is stop functioning frequently and needs restart, and many other similar problems.

Your Alcatel may have better processor, RAM and storage but does it have a Carl Zeiss Camera, 1440 x 2560 resolution screen and NFC, I don't think so.
Neither is the Alcatel Idol 4S Windows anywhere as rugged as HP Elite x3, Lumia 950 and 950 XL, one fall and that glass bodied shiny Alcatel of yours would be in pieces.

This is absurd. Hopefully it is just a firmware fix, as the HP Elite x3 came out with a firmware fix last week to fix their phone for the same issue. Knowing how slow MSFT is with updating anything for Lumia I doubt it will be any time soon. I get a lot of texts from the second line, so having just call forwarding on isn't going to fix it, and was the whole point of me getting a dual sim phone.

I have this phone 5 months already & I'm very happy with it. It's my 4th Lumia, I leaved Android 3 years ago and I hope never return.
Lumia 950 has a spectacular display, one of the best cameras ever on the smartphones, the 2 processors and the 3gb of ram are doing an excellent job, etc...
If you buy a Mozo back cover it will look fantastic.

I liked the phone until I came to know that it has 2 antennas
1 antenna is 4G / LTE the other is 2G only
recently the SIM 2 network turned 2G services off
now SIM 2 must be the data sim or no phone calls period on SIM 2 network
that means SIM 1 is now 2G only
I was not too happy with only being able to use 1 of the 2 SIMs for data
and having to switch back and forth for SMS with attached files
now I am VERY unhappy with this phone
