Upgrade to Lumia 930

[Mitesh Somani1]

Hello everyone, I have a big confusion on which I want some suggestions. I currently have a Lumia 820 from past 2 years. Now I am thinking of upgrading and I am getting an offer of 23.5k for Lumia 930 in exchange of my Lumia 820. And around 13.5k for Lumia 830. I am getting confused that should I go for any one of them right now or should I wait for a newer model which are going to be launched may be this year? And if I should go for it now then which one? 830 or 930? Thanx in advance

If u got the budget then 930 all the way unless u prioritize battery life and Glance screen.

Thanx for the response...is battery life less in 930?

How about checking the Bugs and Defects section for both the 830 and 930? From what I've learnt so far, the 830 has a significantly better battery life when compared to the 930. 930's battery life can be compared to that of a 920, only slightly better though. The 830 is a great device kinda balancing between the high and mid/low end devices. The only thing missing would be the Hey Cortana passive listening feature but you'll also have glance and removable storage, plus a cooler phone with amazing battery life

Depends on how much of a power user u are.
Check the Gsmarena review for a good comparison of both.
930 will be a lot more future proof than 830 since SD800 is in an absolutely different league to SD400 of 830 and the 2gb ram definitely helps.

definitely not worse than the 820, but its battery life isn't anything to be amazed with.

The 830 has better battery life, but a normal working 930 doesnt suck, its not just as great. Otherwise its better in most every regard. (except no Glance, no microSD, no replaceable battery.)
