Microsoft moving away from consumer phones, might linger in enterprise moving forward

The fate of Windows Phone or Windows 10 on Mobile has been up in the air for some time now since Microsoft has repeatedly proven that it is pulling back (but not out) of the mobile market altogether.

Microsoft discounts Lumia 950 XL by $150, price in Canada is now $699

Microsoft's flagship Lumia 950 XL phablet is currently on sale for CAD $699.00 with a $150.00 discount on the octa-core 5.7-inch smartphone that brings many of the advantages of previous Nokia flagships including wireless charging, a 20 megapixel camera with OIS, expandable storage as well as the ability to run a desktop version of Windows using Continuum and a display dock accessory (this only runs Office, some universal apps and the Edge browser right now). 

Microsoft has been discounting and bundling both the Lumia 950 and the Lumia 950 XL (even bundling the smaller smartphone for free if one bought the phablet). This latest move is aimed at clearing inventory and getting more people to buy these Windows Phones perhaps in anticipation of new hardware.
