Microsoft, which, following the recent dismissal of the former head of Nokia, announced more cuts. Most of all it will affect the mobile unit, which is also, according to the head of Satya Nadella will lead to a sharp reduction in the range. Flagships will still be in the portfolio of the software giant, however, for it will have to pay a significant amount.

German MyWindows learned from a reliable source of new details about the future Lumia 940 price and Lumia 940 XL, and received a confirmation number of early leaks and rumors about their specifications. According to him, the main mobile gadgets Microsoft will be more expensive Apple iPhone 6 and Samsung GALAXY S6. Unfortunately, the specific amount was not disclosed.

Why will be Lumia 940 price higher for the competition?

The cost of new products on a level with the main competitors is justified for the company, but if Microsoft decides to establish a price tag higher than its competitors, it could undermine the already not very high sales of more expensive devices on Windows Phone – according to sales statistics: it cost gadgets take up the lion’s share of sales Smartphone manufacturer. Moreover, the historian said usage carbonate as housing materials. It is to be expected given the current lineup, however, looks a bit strange in 2015 when even the Samsung develops glass and aluminum.

Rumor: Microsoft Lumia 940 price the flagship will be more expensive iPhone 6 and GALAXY S6

On the other hand, the source did not specify whether it is a Lumia 940 price or Lumia still 940 XL. If his information about the “higher price” refers to the increased gadget, this is obvious, and its cost can be expected at the level of GALAXY S6 edge or iPhone 6 Plus. In addition, Microsoft will ask for about 100 euros for feature Continuum Smartphone, or rather for the adapter that will turn your smartphone into a full-fledged computer. By doing this dock on sale in early 2016.

Regarding the technical characteristics of the source only confirmed data already known to us. Lumia 940 price will get a 5.2-inch Full HD-display chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 808, 3GB of RAM and 32 GB of permanent memory, expandable via Micro SD, 20-megapixel main (supplemented with a triple LED-flash) and a 5-megapixel front camera and iris scanner. Microsoft Lumia 940 XL please a large screen (5.7-inch with a resolution of 2K) and more productive (and hot) processor Snapdragon 810. Work news, of course, will be on Windows 10 Mobile.

Experience in the used of new Nokia Lumia 930

This flagship operating system Windows Phone 8.1 released already some time ago, but in this article we would like to introduce to you is not an ordinary review, and the prevailing opinion after six months of using a smartphone. The text at the same time to answer, as far as viable – to use Windows Phone as the main operating system.

Ergonomics

Smartphone Lumia 930 is still the best smartphone on Windows Phone in particular, and one of the best champions of all smartphones in general. This also applies to its performance and speed and wireless capabilities and quality of the camera. The latter, incidentally, top branded chip devices Microsoft Devices – perhaps the only smartphones that camera quality can really compete with the iPhone.

Smartphone Lumia 930

But first I want to say a few words about ergonomics smartphone. There is only one minus – the case of heavy. However, this can strain only at the beginning, during the transition to Lumia 930 with another smartphone. In the future, a relatively large mass of the smartphone is not felt, but the device in your hand with confidence, does not slip and fall.

Slightly convex screen, incidentally, is also easy to handle. On the one hand, the edges perfectly grope the other – no irritating protrusions. Initially may have feared that because of this form will overwrite the screen quickly, covered with scratches, but in reality all appeared six months minor scratches and scrapes hardly noticeable. While that film on the screen is not stuck.

Buttons and connectors are located and comfortable feel them blindly is not a problem. Pleases and hide the SIM-card (nano-SIM), which can be easily opened without the use of third-party tools (such as “clip” for iPhone). However, hot-swappable SIM cards still somehow not – have to restart your smartphone (turns off).

Performance

We have said many times (and not just in this article) that the performance of all devices on Windows Phone is no problem, especially in the Lumia 930. However, “just in case”, decided to include in the article a paragraph. Incidentally, the benchmark for WP and especially not and because the platform does not trust, but because special meaning in them not. The fact there are both positive and negative reasons.

Positive – good optimization of the interface and the operating system kernel and rigid requirements to the software do its job.

In general, in the Lumia 930 still “flying” applications open almost instantly, those games that is, do not brake at all.

Operating system

Perhaps the only problem that users may encounter with your smartphone on Windows Phone – lack of application services (branded application of various brands, restaurants, etc.). On the other hand, on the same Android client Instagram, for example, appeared much later iOS – and one of Android-users it stop? Of course, the number of applications for WP is constantly growing, that is, there is no stagnation and not going, despite criticism spiteful critics.

Office on Windows Phone

In practice, all that is needed the most – there. Even Instagram, although it is still in beta status and problems with encoding in notifications (only in them, in the application Russian language is displayed without problems).

Notification system Windows Phone

Experience in the used of new Nokia Lumia 930

But Windows Phone, there are many strengths. First of all, it is practically impossible to find a smartphone, which inhibits WP. More precisely, the interface of the OS does not slow down at all anywhere, just some applications for state employees may lag. However, we’re talking about the Lumia 930, the flagship, and you can be sure – this smartphone will become obsolete very long. You could even say that the Lumia (any) – a profitable investment and competent purchase, if you do not love me smartphone every six months or a year.

Music player – nothing extra and everything is clear

Next – the convenience of the OS, its interface. Yes, it is convenience. We do not write nothing about this is in the “experience of using” – it is no secret that the Windows Phone interface paradigms are very different from iOS and Android (the last rose of iOS, like Eve from Adam’s rib) which is why for a beginner WP highly unusual . But the “unusual” and “uncomfortable” – not only different-sounding words, but even not synonymous. If you, for example, went to the hatchback, and then boarded a jeep – also initially be an unusually long time.

Thus, in Windows Phone indeed many advantages. First of all, the clever use of display area on the start screen. If you have experience with Android-smartphone, you probably imagine what we are. There difficult one screen to dial a lot of widgets, but that they were made in the same style. As a rule, on the same screen typical of Android-smartphone can accommodate one or two widgets – the authors very much like graphic excesses, while the user is interested in the first place, the information itself.

Experience in the used of new Nokia Lumia 930

In Windows Phone, in addition to the standardized size “tiles” are also very well choose the size, and the very writing of the text (font). However, large page titles settings a bit knocked out of this rule (but still look organically). Look at how much info is placed on one screen smartphone on Windows Phone.

And if a little scroll down, there will be more. The advantage of the interface is active for that tile (widgets) and simple static icons includes the same dimensions. And it just fine. And the problems with mixing visual styles arise – everything looks organically.

Also very interesting is the possibility tracking status updates on social networks particular person – that he wrote in facebook, vkontakte, twitter. You can synchronize data with their social networks contacts list on your smartphone, view social activity of friends, their photos and albums directly from the notebook.

By the way, it is convenient that the update for Lumia Denim WP 8.1 added the ability to group tiles in the folder. Moreover, innovation does not destroy the visual interface paradigm – this is important.

Folder in Windows Phone can also be of different sizes – choose

Well, in general, in the interface of Windows Phone happy minimalism. This more than any other operating system is tuned exactly to the perception of information, so there is nothing superfluous. Incidentally, in the iOS and Android gradually begin to appear interface elements and paradigms of Windows Phone. Although generally similar to minimalism and angles – a modern trend and may, Microsoft just managed its first “catch”.

But most importantly, the interface Lumia 930 responsive as possible – this is often lacking on Android. In addition, it is very comfortable virtual keyboard, you do not even want anything to change (alas, iOS has not yet acquired is as comfortable keyboard).

Camera – Nokia Lumia 930

At Nokia, and now Microsoft has a lot of experience in the production of camera phones. One can recall the Nokia N8 – the first smartphone with a matrix of 1 / 1,8 ”, Nokia 808 PureView – the first smartphone with a camera 41 megapixel, or the same Lumia 1020 – almost 808 analogue of the cell, but on Windows Phone.

Experience in the used of new Nokia Lumia 930

Lumia 930 is also not knocked out of the series. By the way, they say that it is worth the same camera module as in the Lumia 1520, but we have the photos do not think so. But anything can happen – post-processing software also makes its own adjustments.

20-megapixel module Lumia 930 takes off really well, even though the camera’s software, and there are problems with the assessment of white balance, because of what can suffer color rendition in JPEG (or rather, can look unnatural color reproduction from the point of view of the user, so that the color is quite normal).

By default, the camera takes pictures in 5 megapixel resolution, more than enough even for viewing on a computer screen, and the “extra” megapixels uses to sharpen, plus as a reserve for the digital zoom. That is, zoom in approximately 2.5 times you can almost lossless (fall field will still be, but is not as noticeable as on other smartphones).

In addition to this, you can specify in the settings of the camera to take one picture in 5 megapixels and a 19 megapixel. But the most interesting – is setting up a 5 megapixel JPEG and 19 megapixel RAW (using the format DNG, Adobe proposed and supported by all anciently widespread RAW-converters). If you are a fan of processed pictures (and process a series of shots Lightroom – easier than ever), it can be useful. From the RAW image actually can be pulled and the lights and shadows and even make HDR. And for white balance can not worry – colors will be such as you wish.

Although, admittedly, often to the processing of RAW, we did not use – still mobile photography is more about “navёl, removed, laid out in the social network” than about image processing.

Battery

Any surprises from the Lumia 930 was not. Smartphone always lived out until the end of the working day and sometimes had the stock the next day. However, the Windows Phone does not have one very nice feature – even in standby mode, it consumes a lot of energy. That is, if you do not use your smartphone, put it on the shelf, it “will live” is not much longer than in the operating mode.

On the other hand, the disadvantage is difficult to call it – in fact, do not buy smartphones in order to lie on the shelf. In addition, any modern man who prefers a top model among smartphones, a long time is worth to have a useful habit to charge the smartphone once a day, and even carry a compact external battery. We recommend using some equipped with a diode flashlight – always handy. Or brand – for example, portable charger Microsoft DC-21. Well, just in case (and the cases are different).

In total – Nokia Lumia 930

Experience in the used of new Nokia Lumia 930

So, in practice, the smartphone Lumia 930 was not just viable, but also extremely convenient mobile device. Since it is much less of a problem than a typical smartphone Android (even if we are only talking about the top models), with no particular disadvantage, and the camera can and does work wonders in the right hands.

The screen did not cause any complaints – use it comfortably warm even on the beach of the bright hot sun. Music headphones sounds right. The performance is sufficient for all released for Windows Phone toys.

Well, the OS still after prolonged use leaves a good impression. Do not argue, there are drawbacks, but “childhood diseases” is not there for a long time, and proprietary advantages sometimes very severely lacking when using other smartphones on the iOS and Android.

Lumia 535 review - is not Nokia, is Microsoft

Everyone starts review of this Windows Phone device with the words «Nokia fell, long live the Microsoft», and all that sort of thing: “Who would have known that would happen,” “This is the first nedonokiya branded melkomyagkih”, “Let’s see what has changed” . I warn you in advance – nothing has changed, except the icon of the brand on the front and rear. And now driven.

Video about this smartphone will not. If you thought “is not the same Raqwe-oh-oh-oh-ort! Text review! Where is the video? “, Keep yourself in the hands. We reserve forces before more text-vidyashnym Looking MWC 2015, and everything you need to know about the Lumia 535, you will learn from the review. And I want to start with a complete set. Firstly, it is poor. In the box there is no headphone jack and a strange charge, both from zero – no adapter and USB-microUSB cable, and solid shnurochek. And practical, and not, I do not determine. In a box with bright patterns, like me – the color orange, or the color of fresh spring grass, or the blue (in the common orange, green and blue) put the lid black. Once a reservation – both plastic cover, but one – glossy, shiny, very good collects absolutely fine dust all around (if you leave the phone on the table and do not wipe it off, after a while it becomes a shaggy and fluffy gadget) and Complete – matte, softtach plastic, dust collects not so good, but still.

Design – Lumia 535

On the one hand, when Microsoft bought Nokia, all experienced, so that she did not come with his samovar and it’s not spoiled. On the other hand, waiting for the first smartphone from the company updated, hoping to see the best of what it can do. Get a kind of credibility. And when they say – the first budget phone melkomyagkie released immediately think: “Well, this is the best of all state employees that Nokia has ever produced, because the first attempt should not be lumpy.” Microsoft decided not to do anything at all – nothing new, nothing extraordinary – and just released a model, whatever it was published under the Finnish brand. That’s all. I was surprised straight – this is really unexpected!

5-inch glossy plastic – behind only the glass – front. Externally, it is not much different from its predecessor Lumia 530, only that the screen size is less than an inch in the front can not be distinguished. Oh no! According to the rating plate in fact, by line! Well, you get the idea. Next to «Microsoft» located on the front-facing camera 5 MP, proximity sensors and lighting hidden above them – the earpiece, which, as for me, would be nice to add a little volume. Under the screen – chin wide phalanx, which is absolutely not necessary, because the virtual control buttons, called swipe from the bottom edge in any menu and placed on top of everything.

At the ends of the devices are located: on the top – audiodzhek 3.5 mm on the bottom right in the middle – the connector microUSB, on the right side – the power button and the volume key on it (for the short and clear) on the left side of the void.

Rear camera lens are located at 5 MP (slightly enters), near – the flash, the brand along the “spine” and short speaker, who is also on the volume is far from ideal. The cap is removed, the device goes into it, as in the boat, and without it you will not have control buttons on and volume. Under the backdrop are slots for two microSIM-cards, microSD and a removable battery capacity of 1905 mAh. There are models with two SIM cards, is – one, in different price hryvnia 100-200.

With dimensions of 140 x 72 x 8.8 mm and weighs 146 grams handle easily. In his hand is confident skolzkovat plastic, but not enough to sound the alarm, not pocket pulls in uzkachi fit, if necessary. I did not like assembly – orange cap goes to shake, rattle all. And as you put on the black cover – all ok, no squeaks. Wonders.

Display

5 inch IPS-matrix, covered with Gorilla Glass 3. The very first feeling – finger glides easily on the back cover than on the screen, oleophobic coating is not. At such low resolution inches – 960 by 540 pixels, it is 220 ppi. Not much, but enough pikselezatsiya there, but there is no feeling that the picture is divided. Black black enough, viewing angles are not the maximum, the normal budgetary display, nothing special, most importantly, that the right angle it looks passable. Brightness will regulate only in three variations: low, medium and high. WP developers think that this is enough, and the freedom of choice – it’s all bad. However, the text remains readable in the sun. Natural color reproduction, may not be sufficiently intense. Customize the display of additional system impossible. Awakening double tapa is present. The color of the substrate under the virtual keys can be changed.

Camera

Not the strength of the unit. Unlike the Lumia 530, 535 became the owner as much as the front camera of 5 MP. Special quality, it is no different, and special features of any no. There is a mode Nokia Selfie, but there’s also no frills – focuses on your face and takes a picture, so you can shoot both the anterior and in the posterior chamber, add effect clean skin and white teeth. It is a wide-angle, you can fit the whole situation with a single shot. Or all your friends.

The main camera also received a 5 MP, autofocus, flash. The resulting image is not enough rich, quality in general is not a fountain, but can be used. Applications such as in the other VF-smartphones. Sliders ISO, shutter speed, white balance and focus can also be traction. Exposure changes tapom

Hopes for the video is not worth it – its maximum resolution is 480 x 848 pixels.

Features & Software

Powered Lumia 535 running Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 quad-core processor with 1.2 GHz each, RAM 1 GB or video accelerator Adreno 302. The functional raises no objections, if you know what I mean. RAM twice than Lumia 530, 630, 635, and it is cool. Well this vindousfon baby, he even running bucket will work well. And the interface is flying, and toys, and speed to run applications – all good. User memory devices have 8 GB free out of the box about 4 GB. The smartphone supports cards up to 128 GB, and still gives OneDrive Free 15 GB. In short, the memory will not exactly deprived. Applications and absolutely all the content can be placed by default on the memory card.

Operating system – Windows Phone 8.1 with a superstructure Lumia Denim. Like everything in it already, and nothing but every time I come across on the menu item “Send your review,” I’m uncomfortable.

Read more about the system, its advantages and disadvantages can be found in numerous texts Sergei Shamanov. I will say that this version has a number of advantages, namely:

  • desktop icons can unites in a folder;
  • for each SIM cards, you can create a “live”;
  • messages and calls are divided for each card separately;
  • virtual control buttons available everywhere on swipe and hiding superfluous, freeing up space on the screen;
  • is present a number of useful applications, such as Microsoft Office, MixRadio, HERE Maps, Facebook preinstalled out of the box.

The smartphone is a radio, but the second SIM card remains active even when you call the first blagodaryatehnologii X-divert. And it is very cool because most podovlyuschee dvuhsimochny machine sends you besedovyt with automatic aunt when calling the second sim, if the first is busy.

Autonomy

Lumia 535 review - is not Nokia, is Microsoft

1905 mAh battery for capable, according to the manufacturer, to give the user the joy of continuous communication for 11 hours or 14 days to lie on the shelf in the standby mode. Neither the first nor the second I try failed, but just the fact that as a smartphone with two sim-cards (one – for communication, the second – to the Internet), toys and social networks Lumia 535 does not hold full-time. I love to play Asphalt 8 on the network – discharged within hours 4. If you use it only for communication – calls and SMS, it all depends on your sociability. In principle, 20 minutes plus 10 interviews messages plus synchronization of mail – about two days. If you use instant messenger, while the decline.

Output – Lumia 535

There is a tendency, when in six months strongly jumped prices for equipment and all the while the market is unstable, people pay attention to the price tag, and system – virtually none. You can argue long on the topic “Windows Phone – good or bad?”, Love or hate – it is better reasons, but we can not say that the system is defective. Yes, the first evening with WP, I was confused and unaccustomed Shamanov called him to tell that here and where, but for a day or three moves in and continue skating Asphalt 8 as if nothing had happened. Especially (and this is an advantage vindous android smartphones before) even a budget model will pull all the heavy game. Tanks in the shop No, but enough.

As in touch dialer in Lumia 535 has a chance, especially two SIM cards, and the second is accessible even when the first call, and convenient distribution of calls and messages, and easily switch between cards – one slider. But it is not expensive it? In all other respects it is the most common representative of the budget line, and on the change of name plate panels for absolutely nothing has changed. A pity. Read an interesting idea that you can buy the Lumia 535 only by accident or out of curiosity – “What has changed with the arrival of the giant four-color?”. And if the answer to the second question you already know that … Not that I want to put the final nail in the coffin, but the Lumia 530, which is still Nokia, still rules as state employees-dialer, just 4 inches in Ukraine, you can buy for $ 80, and in Europe – for all 30-40, if you search. Do not thank. If you are looking for a budget alternative exclusively on Android, you can find and cheaper with a similar screen, but clearly decelerating. By itself, the device is good both in the amount of $ 120.

So Enthusiasts launched Windows 10 for Lumia 520 yet... early Microsoft

Last week, Microsoft introduced a new test build of Windows 10 for smartphones. The list of supported models listed Lumia 630 and 635, which means that the system works on devices with 512MB of RAM. However, the most popular device on Windows Phone in the list is not ranked.

Lumia 520 – the most popular smartphone on Windows Phone. For summer 2014 has sold over 12 million units. Against the background of Apple in smartphone sales, this figure looks funny, but for the Microsoft operating system component is very, very high. At the moment, this budget is not in the best-seller list of supported devices Windows 10 Technical Preview, but enthusiasts still have managed to run this devayse new operating system. Its responsiveness is not so high, but you can work.

Will Lumia 520 official update? Previously, Joe Belfiore wrote on Twitter that the Lumia 520 will receive the update, though truncated and, therefore, on the street and users of this device should still happen holiday, because the promise has already been given. Hope this event gives Microsoft and arranged sale on eBay. The company distributes Lumia 520 at a discount of 70% for just $ 29 a pair with a contract from AT & T. However, this act of goodwill can be interpreted in different ways.

But whatever it was, leave the most popular budget smartphone without the “new things” would be very strange, considering that Microsoft increases the presence of its operating system in the market is through budget devices.
