    I am trying a move back to my favorite OS. Windows mobile. For the most part, I use edge on my iphone. There are very few apps I use. I will try wallet, to see if I can pay for stuff. Also, I will see if garmin connect still works as well. Going to be great going back to the best cameras in the biz.

    Well since I have posted this, I have been doing more investigation. I am now TOTALLY going for these phones. Plus pretty well every lumia out there. Why? one reason, well, a few, but the number one reason is the CAMERA! I have seen some comparison videos of the lumia 950 xl and 1020 vs the iphone 11 pro. The lumia duo creates WAY more pleasing images. I already knew that. They also keep up with, or best the iphone in low light too. Now, the iphone has these "fancy" or as I call them, SILLY filters like portrait mode, where the lumia have the real versions in stopping up your lenses. MUCH better doing it for real!

    Ordering my lumia 950xl next week as my business phone. Proabably will turn into my main device. I have been doing lots of research and even now, windows 10 mobile is working fluidly. I don't care about snapcrap and garbage like that. Real apps and sites work on the 950xl fine.
