Microsoft has released the new Lumia 950 XL

Microsoft has started to evolve on the smartphone market. These days, the huge company has released the new Microsoft Lumia 950 XL. Moreover, besides this new and larger phone, they have also released a smaller option, called Lumia 950. 

With these two new releases, Microsoft has started promoting their new Windows 10 for mobile. Of course, Microsoft Lumia 950 XL is larger than Lumia 950, featuring a 5.7-inch display, and also has some extra new features. Being Microsoft’s flagship phones, these two models are packed with the latest technology. 

So, the new Microsoft Lumia 950 XL comes with an incredible display, an amazing 20-megapixel camera and a super-fast octa-core processor. As for their new operating system, Windows 10 is a good and probably a refreshing alternative for Android and iOS.

Moreover, Windows 10 comes with a friendly-interface, meaning that it is pretty easy to use, but it has one huge minus: apps. This problem has also been met on the previous operating system, Windows Phone 8. 

So, unfortunately, the app store doesn’t have all the great content that users were used to see on iOS and Android. It seems that app developers are not putting any great effort to bring new releases to Microsoft’s mobile apps. 

If we forget about the app problem, the new Microsoft Lumia 950 XL is an incredible phone and those who are already Windows Phone users will probably accommodate quickly from switching to the newest operating system. 

However, the new Windows 10 has a lot of work to do to become a compelling choice over iOS and Android. This doesn’t mean that it is impossible, because this operating system promises a lot, and with some updates, it can be a tough competitor on the market. 

The new Microsoft Lumia 950 XL is available at the price of 649 dollars. This is not a cheap price, meaning that customers will have to do a lot of thinking before buying this product. As it was earlier mentioned, Microsoft Lumia 950 XL is bigger than the classic 950, having a larger 5.7-inch display. 

This phone measures 78.4mm wide and 152mm long, while the standard 950 has 145 x 73.2 mm. So, this means that Microsoft Lumia 950 XL is designed for customers who are willing to have a larger display. Of course, they are aware that this phone is not for one-handed use. 

Microsoft Lumia 950 XL and Lumia 950 have one of the best displays on the market. 

These two devices share the same resolution, 2,560x1,440-pixels. But, knowing the fact that Microsoft Lumia 950 XL has a larger display means that the pixels are spread out over a wider area. 

This means that the pixel density is reduced. However, this is not a huge difference that should been noticed. Microsoft Lumia 950 XL comes with an octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor, accompanied by 2GB of RAM. 

On the other side, the classic Lumia 950 comes with a Snapdragon 808 hexacore processor, accompanied by the same amount of RAMs.
