$100 $300
Microsoft Store has the Alcatel Idol 4S 5.5" 64GB 4GB RAM Windows 10 GSM Unlocked Smartphone (halo gold) for $100 with free shipping. Windows is done making new phones. Might be worth it just for the 21MP camera though!

  • 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, 5.5" FHD (1920 x 1080)
  • 21MP low light cam, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth: 4.1
  • $100 retail: $300

    I need a new phone, so I bought one cause it's a great deal, it'll be delivered today, but I have an app I like that's not in the MS store, so I'll probably return it and get the android Moto E4.

    ... I really liked my Lumia 635, but app developers are dropping off windows mobile like flies. I think many of the Microsoft apps stopped working first. The specs on this phone look awesome for the price, but it'll be a muted smartphone experience. I recently switched to a Nokia 6, and it's a much more robust digital experience. Ymmv.

    Bought the Moto G4, pretty affordable and a great phone. Very speedy. Love it. Apps on this phone are going to be Very Lousy.

    about last year microsoft admits window phones are dead. The situation just like what happened to the Blackberry and https://coupons.bensbargains.com/redirects/clickTrack?widget_view_id=14&page_view_id=3&platform=desktop&page_merchant_id=3&test_variation_id=0" target="_new">amazon phone, unless without apps, even with impressive hardware spec.

    Microsoft is out, google took its place with android. The next 10 years it is all about google vs https://coupons.bensbargains.com/redirects/clickTrack?widget_view_id=14&page_view_id=3&platform=desktop&page_merchant_id=3&test_variation_id=0" target="_new">Amazon on AI, Apple will soon lose out, as the hardware and software advantage no longer justify its high price and upgrade limitation of products.

    have had a few windows phones in the past, but as others have said, no appstore worth a damn. Too bad because integrated with windows 10 very well on other devices.

    Microsoft has abandoned their Windows phone division and app support is probably dead. invest in this phone only if you are okay with the circumstances.

    They should download a patch that lets you sideload apps.

    App support is dying. If you can get this phone free with rewards points, it is probably still worth it but not with real money. Is this the final sale price from Microsoft store?

    I saw a report that Bill Gates admitted to using an android phone.

    Why would anyone buy this phone? Windows phones are dead. Wake up people Microsoft dropped the ball on mobile phones. Move on.

    Would it be ok as an MP3 player for music and videos, when the price drops to say $50?
