All About Windows Phone Insight Podcast

In an extra length catch-up AAWP podcast(!), Rafe Blandford and I mull over all the news from the world of Windows 10 Mobile, trying to reassure listeners that the sky isn't falling in. Well, not today anyway, though we do set some timelines up.

With Rafe still catching up after CES 2018, I snatched the opportunity to catch up with a fellow Windows-covering Brit, Zac Bowden, from Windows Central, chatting to him about his smartphone journey, about Surface Mobile, about hyper convergence and the state of Windows 10 Mobile.

In a special 45 minute podcast before CES 2018, Rafe Blandford and I get together over New Year's celebratory drinks to chat about my final Wileyfox Pro verdict, about double-hinges and phablets past and future, and about Cortana's new 'tin ear' for music(!)

Rafe's back in time to wish you all a Happy Christmas and to chat about the mobile world from all angles, including the new Wileyfox Pro and why some businesses might opt to chase security and Windows after all, plus we talk Windows 10 on ARM and Surface Mobile.

With Rafe busy elsewhere, I take the time to call up a podcast regular from the USA, Steve Heinrich. We chat through some of the last few weeks stories and even have time for a listener's letter. Hopefully there will be another podcast before Christmas with Rafe himself - watch this space.

Rafe and I chat about my top 12 third party UWP applications, plus we finally get to the thorny subject of Microsoft apps and services on iOS and Android. How well do they work, what are the limitations, and which is the best platform (and which device) to have a look at if you've got itchy feet in the Windows world?

Rafe Blandford and I chat on-the-go about the week's Windows phone-related news, including two new pieces of hardware that are 'coming up' - possibly. Plus some software and hardware picks and the usual off-topic musings!

Rafe's busy this week, so in this special bonus podcast, I chat to MSCE Siavash Ghahremany about his device history (mainly Nokia and Microsoft), his current use of Windows 10 Mobile and his thoughts on what might happen in 2018 in terms of hardware and strategy.

In an extra length podcast, Rafe Blandford and I chat about the iPhone X, Huawei's PC mode, and comparisons to Windows 10 Mobile solutions. We also talk about the future of the platform and the difficulty of getting hardware repaired. It's not all doom and gloom but hey, we're at least realistic...

In this week's podcast, guest Anthony Fear chats about Windows 10 Mobile, iOS and Android in enterprises, we find a new 'Windows on phones is dead' metaphor, we chat about support until 2019, and what might have been if Microsoft had tried harder with the Lumia hardware. Plus more chat about sites versus apps.

With Rafe getting a week off, freelance developer Matt Lacey and I chew through some of the stories from the site in the last week, plus we hear the developer view on UWP applications, Joe B's tweets and an easier way of getting started with Windows projects.

Rafe Blandford is back, by popular demand, with his take on recent tech tabloid stories regarding the 'death of Windows 10 Mobile'. Covering some of the last week's stories in passing, we muse on the current state of the OS and on the future of mobile, in a wider ranging than planned discussion(!)

In this episode, guest Steve Heinrich joins me again to chat about the week's stories, including six more months added to the 2019 support deadline for Windows 10 Mobile, plus we debate the age old question: Lumia 950 or 950 XL?

In an extra length AAWP podcast, Rafe Blandford and I discuss "Why Windows 10 Mobile?" in a phone world that's increasingly being dominated by other mobile platforms, plus we give shout outs to Alcatel IDOL 4 Pro cases and some new UWP applications for Windows 10.

Anthony Fear and I chat about a few differences between the Windows 10 Mobile-powered IDOL 4S (in the USA) and IDOL 4 Pro (in the rest of the world), along with thoughts on the new Wileyfox Pro.
