It's bretty good. Nice battery life, very good overall performance.
Also rock solid on WP 10.

WP has those. It doesn't have good stuff. UWP is not taking off, at least not now. Continental might give some boost to Continuum, but right now app selection is pure shit. Especially in US.
WP has like 20% in Europe, MS should focus on european market.
Currently use one, it's really good, no lag/crash whatsoever an is very very responsive. The camera is very good too, and the possibility to take .RAW pics is very useful for post processing. The only downside is that when using mobile internet it becomes a fucking heater
I just had a hands on with the 950 XL. I'm amazed at how slow it feels. It's even worse than Android. The build quality is equal to a $100 Samsung Android phone.
Never, ever, buy any Windows Phone.

You can't judge a type of phone by one of the models

Another coworker of mine has an older version. It's pretty fat and rgb red. I'm not sure of the model number, but the brand is nokia. After 6 months his screen turned yellowish, like using f lux.

I smell a shill.

>b...but muh review tells it's the best phone ever
Go to a store and try it yourself faggot. Notice how slow scrolling from the live tile window to the app overview window is.

I own a 60€ lumia and it's much more responsive/smoother than every android I've ever owned, included ones worth up to 300€
Also the "muh yellow screen" sounds like something made up on the spot. Never heard anyone talk about that, and I know plenty of people with wp, and it would have been /g/ wet dream to post if they ever got an official source talking about it.
I haven't even read any review of the 950, it's just your post that reeks of prejudice from miles away.

I own the 930 v2.0.0.3
Overall a nice device but I have annoying screen flicker in everything not OS related ie. any apps/browser. You can google Lumia 930 screen flicker to see what I'm talking about.
Definitely worth the $330 US I paid for it back in April (Black Gold) but you'd be better off buying a Nexus 5x for the same price with all of these Black Friday deals.Cyber Monday may have better prices on unlocked phones but I'm good for another year.
WM10 runs fine but MS is really dragging their feet getting a modern OS to the market to compete against Apple and Google. Hopefully we Insiders will get a new build that addresses app crashing soon.

The only people who own Windows Phones are either Microsoft developers or retarded hipsters too poor or delusional to buy another other phone. The only reason why it sells so good in the US is muh patriotism.
The yellow screen is real. If you like hardware f-lux, it might be your dream device.
I was merely interested in the continuum thing, but I've been told it's not out yet. I just toyed around with the 950 for about half an hour until I got tired.
I'm not saying the 950 is utter shit, but it's far from good. The equalizer was pretty neat, though it lacked a 'test me' button. The audio quality is trash mainly because of the mono speaker on the back. Having a setting for changing the shutter speed is pretty cool and the pictures looked really good. It only takes a while to process the picture, but that's ok.
I have no idea why the UI was so unresponsive. The hardware is good, so it must be a software issue.
Also the no apps meme is real. I tried installing YouTube and it installed a shortcut linking the the default browser. Nigga, we 2015. Even the toilet has a YouTube app.
Microsoft should really invest in better Quality Control. Even the new Surface Pro arrived broken at work.

I own a £39 Lumia, some model from June. Best phone I've ever had. Stable, no crashes, no issues but limited app store and no games (I use a gba emulator on it anyway.) for £39 it was an absolute steal. I like the ui too.

Not a developer, neither an hipster.
I may have to write just one app I lack (yeah, the lack of apps is not a meme).
I do use f.lux, so that would be a plus.
I'm surprised the UI was unresponsive, and I think it was just on that device probably.
Defective products happen to every brand.
The "default" youtube app is shit, but there are plenty of better options like Tubecast or Metrotube that are better than the default android app (background playing, ability to download a video to quote two features).
Not related to your post:
I like how much it is customizable out of box without having to add bloat apps like android, and I really like the UI.
The only thing I dislike at the moment is that I haven't found a way to hide the porn.
