Windows 10 now on mobile
Microsoft has introduced Windows 10 mobile operating software on its smartphones. The software is on Lumia 950 and 950 XL.
Introducing the phone to stakeholders in
Lagos, the company said it was introducing the best it had to offer
with the Lumia 950 XL and Lumia 950. This will be followed up with more
affordable devices.
Beyond the devices, it said the aim was
to showcase its newest Windows 10 mobile OS, which it hoped would
resonate with consumers already using Windows 10 on their desktops and
ultimately “coax developers into making more universal apps for the
platform.”
The 950XL comes with a 5.7-inch Quad HD Amoled display with Nokia’s iconic ClearBlack technology for better sunlight legibility.
“The display is absolutely stunning,
producing neutral colours and high brightness levels for almost any
lighting conditions. Our test unit seems to produce a bluish tinge if
you tilt the phone vertically or horizontally.
“This is easily noticeable on white
backgrounds but not so much on other colours. We checked this with a
couple of other units as well and noticed the same problem,” the company
said in a statement.
According to the Public Relations and
Communications Lead at Microsoft Nigeria, Mr. Yemi Orimolade, all the
buttons are placed on the right, including the camera shutter button,
while the headphone socket and USB Type-C charging ports are placed on
the top and bottom respectively.
“Around the back, we have the
20-megapixel PureView camera, a triple-LED dual-tone flash and speaker
grille. The camera cluster bulges out very slightly so that the speaker
is not muffled when placed on a flat surface.
“You shouldn’t worry too much about
scratches to the lens either as the glass cover is slightly recessed so
that it doesn’t make direct contact with the surface. The rear cover is
removable just as the 3340mAh battery. You will also find two slots for
Nano-SIM cards and a microSD card slot,” Orimolade said.
He said Lumia 950 XL might not look as
glamorous as some of the other flagship products but noted that it was
well-built for durability.
“The design does feel a bit bland
however and not as exciting as past Lumia devices. The phone comes
bundled with a charger with a fixed cable, USB data cable, headset and a
couple of instruction booklets. The quality of the accessories is very
good and they feel durable enough,” he added.
