Microsoft Lumia 950 XL Dual SIM - user opinions and reviews

The 950 XL is an ok phone, it gets hot at times, and the screen picks up fingerprints easily so get a good screen protector with an oleophobic coating. The connectivity is good, as I used it I saw no differences between the 950 XL, and my Nexus 6p. The camera takes great pictures and doesnt leave me wanting a better camera. With the addition of panorama to the photo app, it's just about feature complete. I love the edge browser, with the exception of certain embedded videos that would not play, I'm sure it's a standards thing which may be updated in the future. I have the dual sim variant which leaves a second sim icon at the top showing that the sim is not inserted, which looks bad but I may just buy a sim with no service, which will make it go away. The phone wont have as many case options obviously, but MOZO makes some really good high end cases so thats one
really good thing about the Lumia.

Anyone use lumia 950XL or any other model to do Forex Metatrader 4? Is it good using full version Meta Trader 4 on 950XL or have to use the Meta Trader 4 mobile version?

I have had several Lumias, the 800, 820, 920 and now the 950 XL dual sim.
It is the best and the worst phone I have ever owned.
It gets so hot it is uncomfortable to hold, and that is just browsing or using sat nav.
The battery does not last a full day, and I only make maybe 3 minutes of phone calls, send 20 texts, 20 minutes of sat nav and maybe 5 minutes of browsing.
This is the only phone I have had that has died on me during the above usage.
In addition, the dual sim does not work. If I turn off sim 1 then sim 2 will work, but not both at the same time. Useless.
I have a £50 Doogee phone that will let me run sat nav for 2 hours, plus both dual sims work with whatever network, and if I don't use much sat nav as is normal, it will last 2 days.
There is absolutely no excuse for a £500 phone to behave so poorly.
I love the screen, I love the Windows OS, but there does not appear to be a good phone to go with it from anyone.
Do I really have to switch to Android? And a £50 phone to get what I need?

Agyemang, 13 Jun 2016To read that Microsoft Mobile has folded up is a big disappointment to some of us. I love MS p... moreWhat are you talking about? MS Mobile did not "fold up". Stop believing all those hater articles. MS is still producing mobile phones (though not the Lumia line, no flip phones) and MS is still supporting Windows 10 mobile. They're just pulling back because they want other manufacturers to focus on the hardware so MS can focus on the software. Having said that MS will still be producing some phone hardware of their own, but not as much as previously.

I find this phone slower than a 1GB RAM (Lumia 540 dual sim) i have held, just annoying plus the restarts that happen every now and then.

Anonymous, 06 Jul 2016does this phone have led notification ?No only glance screen.Led notification is now outdated .Glance screen display is the best one and more useful than led notification.

please consider 640xl dual sim . only the restriction is with the number of apps available.
been using it almost one year now. fully satisfied after the windows 10 upgrade.

Most Idiocy by Microsoft 810 was already notorious for heating, with internal pipeing, a shortcut was chosen. Now system plus set plastic is boiling. 750$ worth mobile, gone to rotten!
