Thoughts from this past week

Want an affordable phone? Catch the Lumia 630. Want a phone to supplement your current phone? Grab the Lumia 630. That's one affair I took away from this past calendar week. We looked at how the Lumia 530 compared to the Lumia 520. Surprise, the Lumia 530 is better than the Lumia 520. So nosotros compared the Lumia 530 and the Lumia 630.

While the two devices take somewhat similar specs and functioning, the Lumia 630 is preferred over the Lumia 530. The vastly superior display of the Lumia 630 make it a better buy and one you should go for if y'all're looking for an affordable phone. Yes, the Lumia 530 is cheaper, merely your eyesight is worth the actress fleck of money you'll spend on the Lumia 630.

Microsoft announced Age of Empires: Castle Siege for Windows Phone and Windows viii. I tin't wait for this game. It comes erstwhile during September, and it brings my favorite RTS series to phones and tablets. John had a great interview with the dev team, and you should read it to get pumped for this game. The power to control where units go, something you can't do in Cloud Raiders or Disharmonism of Clans, will be welcomed past RTS fans.

This week wasn't likewise busy in terms of news, only I estimate that's because we're in that calm before the storm stage. Next week is IFA, and Microsoft is expected to announce 2 new handsets. The next edition of ICYMI will probably have a lot of exciting information. Till next week.
