Alright...
With the:
A) Nokia's event supposedly gone not as expected by the tech community (or at least some as some of us had expected)
B) The "fake ad" debacle
C) and then the entire debate of spec vs performance,
there is a lot of negativity around WP8.
So I take upon myself this task of showing everyone some reasons why I, for one, am still buying a WP8, without doubt.
So here it is:
1. Security.
The single biggest reason I am buying a Windows Phone 8. Specs, performance, camera all become redundant if u can't even start your system.
These 2 write-ups have played the biggest and the most crucial role in me taking this decision of jumping from Android to WP:

2. Hardware:
Spec vs Performance is a raging battle today on many forums. And I choose performance. Yes. I proudly choose to be on the side of performance as I believe that's what should sell a product.
As someone rightly said, Samsung is to be blamed. Samsung is the one offering cores after cores, upping RAM speeds but for a platform that IS resource hungry. WP is not. Even on standard specs, WP flies.
So, hardware-wise I don't NEED an octa-core to boast...I will boast about my phone when I smoke them!
3. Futureproof.
One word says it all, NT Kernel(OK that's two words )
Even though MS had pissed many WP7 users off with their move of changing the kernel, they have secured themselves for the future.
NT, as I read somewhere, supports up to 64 cores was, alone enough for me to understand why this move was so crucial at this stage.
So, the future looks bright, spare some mishaps.
And joining WP now will only mean a secured tomorrow for us.
