VAIO Trots Out A Windows 10 Handset
Nice
Good to see an OEM putting out a high-end Windows 10 phone. Unfortunately, without major carrier support in the U.S., it will not sell very well. That's been one of the biggest issues with WP gaining popularity, and in relation, major app support from developers.

What do you think about the 950 and 950 XL with the first one only being available at AT&T? Do you think more carriers means more success for WP or is it simply never going to be as popular as iOS and Android due to lack of apps?

I don't think it will gain the same type of popularity as Android and iOS, initially. I do believe that more carrier support would help sells. I do wish the XL was available, but I'm sure if those phones were available on other carriers, they would have sold fairly well. Without carrier support, it will keep WP in the mindset that it's dead. Marketing is a key component of this. Microsoft definitely has to do more on this end, but if no one is biting, that is limited, too.
