Lumia

Try as it may, Microsoft simply can’t compete in a smartphone market still dominated by Apple’s iPhone and an assortment of Android handsets

It’s been a long time, but Microsoft has finally unveiled a new flagship device based on Windows Phone. In fact, it’s unveiled two new devices to quench Windows users’ thirsts for high-end hardware: The Lumia 950 and the larger Lumia 950 XL.

There are several hot phones on the market right now, and side note: if you are looking for a great deal, you may be able to score one at Frugaa.com. Anyway, without further ado, here’s a look at some of our favorite smartphones for 2015

Automobile manufacturer, BMW, has been reported to be acquiring 57,000 Lumia smartphones for its employees, to replace older Nokia devices running on Symbian.

It’s perfectly normal for a company that designs and makes mobile phones to create and release newer and newer devices but when it comes to Microsoft things become a bit more special not only because of the famous Nokia purchase but also because of the first Microsoft-branded smartphones.

In the past few weeks the Internet has seen numerous reports of a new bug that affects Lumia 925 and Lumia 1020 smartphones running Windows Phone 8.1. The bug reportedly freezes the phone where the smartphone fails to wake up from sleep mode. As a result users have to force a soft reset in order to make it work again.

We know Microsoft has something special planned for tomorrow with the company unveiling their brand new, self-branded smartphone. And just to whet your appetite, Microsoft has posted another teaser.

The retirement of the Nokia brand will enter a full force stage later this week when Microsoft plans to unveil the first Nokia-free Lumia smartphone. The event will take place on November 11, 2014 and an announcement for it was published on Microsoft’s Nokia Conversations blog along with a teaser image of the upcoming device.
