I'm going to trade my Note 4 for this phone:

Microsoft Lumia 950 and 950XL Hands-On Review | Digital Trends

To many features to list but it's got the SD slot back (where the Note 5 doesn't anymore) and most often Microsoft Contintuum (use your phone like a Windows 10 computer). Oh and the awesome carl zeiss lens and tripple led flash - SOLD.

Not even remotely interested. I don't want to use my phone as a PC.

Maybe when Samsung makes a Windows phone I may take another look, but there's nothing on this that makes me want to bail on Android.

Certainly report back if you get one.

Nice big screen. Windows phones don't have that many apps. Are you ok with that? It's also not cheap. There's a whole lot of Android phones in that price range

I will probably get mine when I am eligible 1/1/2016.
And, it will be the XL.

App count is over-rated, IMO. It doesn't take thousands or millions of apps to be productive.

It has all the *main* apps that I am interested in, which is good enough. This phone has the right features - SD SLOT (Samsung has since removed from recent models), Microsoft Continuum (use your phone like a Windows PC w/ a Monitor), and USB-C (at least 2x USB 3.0 and can carry video), and a very nice camera, as well as a kick-a** octa processor.

The XL will, for now, be sold unlocked straight from Microsoft.
