    Microsoft loses ~12 cents on every phone sold


    Posted: 03 May 2015
    Despite hitting a record 10 million sales in the second quarter of 2015, Microsoft's phone division is in trouble. Competitors, including Apple and Google, are pushing the envelope even further, leaving Microsoft in the dust. Redmond has seemingly chosen to produce only low-end phones with a flagship phone conspicuously absent from the current lineup.

    Microsoft will use it as a tax write off and loose nothing.

    I've been looking for my charger to charge the older window mobile and see if 8 or 10 is offered via wifi :)
    I believe it would be a downgrade even for that old device
    Which was pretty good back then.
