    This was my first smartphone

    Such good memories of the Lumia 520. I could not believe for the little price how good this phone was. In fact I still tell people today that in the affordable end of the market, Windows phones are an excellent option. Mine eventually broke down and I was aware of the app disparity between...

    A review of the 2013 Lumia 1020, in end-2015

    Re: Anyone else disappointed MS did not continue 41MP camera? I can tell you that 16MP Galaxy cameras are absolutely fantastic outdoors. You would not believe how much you can pinch zoom before you lose resolution. If the 1020 does better, it would only be by the slightest of margins. In fact...

    A review of the 2013 Lumia 1020, in end-2015

    Anyone else disappointed MS did not continue 41MP camera? Hi all. I did have the Lumia1020 albeit for a month only. The battery life was so bad I could not live with it. I predicted that when MS bought Nokia, they would not continue the 41MP camera. Anyone else disappointed? I have moved...

    My thoughts on the new LG G3-contrary to the rest of the tech press

    Let me be clear. I don't have the Galaxy S5 only because I am waiting for phones with Snapdragon 805 and Adreno 420. In particular, I am hanging out for Note 4 but I will compare all phones before buying. Yes, the Galaxy S5 is not the prettiest. Neither is the Note 3. But to me that doesn't...

    My thoughts on the new LG G3-contrary to the rest of the tech press

    Hi everyone. I have been closely following all the rumours of the LG G3 and of course it now has been officially unveiled. There has been MASSIVE hype of this LG flagship and the hype has continued with it's official release. I have a few thoughts to share on this but I will say straight off...

    Your thoughts on Lumia 1020 vs the just announced Galaxy K Zoom

    I will be honest. I am losing faith in a Lumia 1020 successor now with MS at the helm. Just look at what has surfaced as the first new Microsoft Mobile phone, the one codenamed "Superman". This stunning bit of gear will be the "King of the selfies" featuring a 5MP front camera. Really? Is...

    Your thoughts on Lumia 1020 vs the just announced Galaxy K Zoom

    Oh yeah, totally forgot about the display resolution. Imagine if the 1020 had not only a full HD display, but the now coming out quad HD displays. Imagine viewing those 41mp images on that.

    Your thoughts on Lumia 1020 vs the just announced Galaxy K Zoom

    I tend to agree. I dearly wish Nokia would at the very least put say a Snapdragon 805 or some 6/8 core processor and a much larger battery. For me then, the 1020 would be perfect. I could live without micro SD but that would be the icing on the cake.

    Your thoughts on Lumia 1020 vs the just announced Galaxy K Zoom

    Well Samsung has just announced the Galaxy K Zoom and I must admit that it looks mighty impressive to me. 10X optical zoom with a 6 core processor and sporting a slimmer overall frame than the S4 Zoom. Removable back cover too to replace the battery. And also xenon flash with a 2mp front...

    RANT-The increasing stupidity of smart phone enthusiasts

    The only abomination here is you attempting to silence another WP Forum user because things said make you feel uncomfortable and reveal a few home truths.

    RANT-The increasing stupidity of smart phone enthusiasts

    Hahahaha......I almost forget myself. Oh yeah, increasing compromise of smartphones to appease teenagers and young people and immature adults. To continue now. I understand that you have to accommodate all tastes and ages. A great example-front facing cameras. Selfies is what predominantly...

    RANT-The increasing stupidity of smart phone enthusiasts

    Dude, I"m talking about "home" decors. Decor for the entire home, every room. Yeah, a Galaxy S5 may be more expensive than 1 or more items in your particular home. Hell, it's more expensive than a bunch of stuff in my home too. But certainly not the whole home. I said as a general statement...

    RANT-The increasing stupidity of smart phone enthusiasts

    More expensive than home decors? Really? A mobile phone? Yeah maybe if you're talking about an Indian tee pee or Eskimo igloo. My mind boggles over that statement.

    RANT-The increasing stupidity of smart phone enthusiasts

    I'm sorry, but I just have to rant and vent. I am becomingly increasingly disgusted at just how stupid and airhead grown men and women are becoming over smartphones. To me, smartphones are becoming something like followers of Justin Bieber. A teeny bopper performer for an immature audience...

    Any news about a Lumia 1020 successor?

    Well I got chewed up by another poster around here for suggesting this, but Nokia don't have to do a total revamp of the phone to make a major update of the L1020. There would be a lot of happy Nokia fans if the 1020 got either Snapdragon 805/810 or a separate dedicated chip for just the...

    Question about PPI and battery life

    I've been reading about the OPPO Find 7 with it's quad HD display and the confirmed upcoming LG G3 that is also to have this. About 540PPI. On any article I read when I scroll down to the comments section, I always see some people lamenting about these ultra high PPI displays. Lamenting...

    I have to be honest-love Nokia and Windows but considering LG G3

    Well buddy, I think a Lumia "with everything" as you say is very possible. Other phone makers can do it, why not Nokia? I have just posted in the "upcoming and rumoured devices" section about a possible Lumia 1820 with absolutely top specs. I believe it will happen now as the case for it is...

    Here is a link on a French case maker's website - "Coming soon" case for Lumia 1820

    The title says it all: nokia 1820 | Noreve - Haute Couture for Mobile Devices And you can see that if you type in Samsung Galaxy S5 Zoom, it also says "Coming soon"-just as the rumour mills have suggested for both this Samsung and the Lumia 1820.

    What do you make of this? *Lumia 1820* (posted very recently)

    I was doing some research into the upcoming LG G3, with differing claims of the processor. This site said that the Snapdragon 805 will be avaliable after July this year. Here is another site from an older article but still saying the same thing and actually naming the French case manufacturer...
