Windows 10 Smartphones News: Lumia Phones' Lack of Top Apps to Become an Issue for Users?
Finally, the Windows 10-powered Lumia 950 XL and 950 are out for consumers to indulge into, and while the smartphones have become a hit among phone buyers, a certain issue has been named by some experts.
According to Express U.K., the problem that all potential buyers will find in the much-anticipated phones is waiting for the latest apps and games to be integrated in the devices. This is true in every aspect since Windows 10 does not support a whole bunch of amazing apps and games that consumers can find in Android and iOS-powered devices.
The outlet further explains that it is possible for the phones to nail some top apps, but it is likely that the apps will "lack the same polish and performance."

One of the top apps that the outlet believes should be in every phone is Instagram. However, it is unclear if Facebook will even release the app on Windows 10 mobile phones.
Also, another problem that could arise in terms of likability is the Lumia 950 XL's design. With its "bland" plastic outer cover and "mediocre" battery life, some consumers who have seen better performing and sharp looking devices may not opt for the new smartphone.
It is also worth noting that there are other devices that can totally slam plastic designs — an option that isn't very much welcome in the critics department.
On the other hand, consumers can still consider the Lumia 950 XL since it boasts of a Quad HD AMOLED display, a SnapDragon processor, 3GB of RAM, and a rear camera that can go toe-to-toe with other devices from industry giants.
It is also one of the first phones that has the same settings panel as what desktop and laptop owners see on their screens. Anyone who feels right at home with Windows 10 in a computer will find navigating the Lumia phones easy.
