I am rocking my lumia 830. God will punish Xiaomi for me. I was loving Redmi note 7 and arranging my cash to order the thing when I see k20 pro. Now I am stuck with my lumia again till the beast enters 9ja.

This thread still dey breath? It's now a year since I switched to Android - This is my second Redmi Device although I still have my Lumia at home but not using it.

For those still using their Lumia, una dey try o!

Guys still use windows phone, more for reasons of love for the ecosystem than for any other reasons. I still use Lumias 1520 and L650 (double SIM variant). I have other four Lumias down the line that is collectibles, along with few other symbian editions.

Sadly, by December I may be forced to switch to some other ecosystem as MSFT has stopped support for Windows phone. The result of this is that software developers will cease to give updates of their products on the store and may eventually remove such apps from the store.

I got a message from WhatsApp 'bout 3 weeks ago notifying me that the app will be pulled out of the store by December and may cease to work on Windows phone by early next year.

Basically I sense some conspiracy in all these. Windows phone ecosystem is inherently a tough one to toy around with in terms of users' data and information unlike android and iOS in which the only thing needed to get users' info is for the companies to compromise the standard just as android does with snooping on users on their platform.

If the huge mobile users database is to be as inclusive, valid and useful as possible, then there is need to narrow peoples' choices by doing away with OSes like windows and BB OS that is inherently unfriendly to such cause.

Just my opinion though.

You are really right. It was really hard to let it go, but local man wasn't getting enough. I still have mine at home though.
