    Would you honestly buy another Microsoft Mobile?

    I love my Lumia 1020 because it solves a problem for me that no other phone does - Excellent photos combined with a smartphone, for sharing/storing the photos and allowing me to carry one device instead of two (camera and phone). However, the 1020 has been relegated to vacation and weekend...

    GPS draining the battery while charging?

    I am using a 1A charger. No issues, even when Nav and Music are running at the same time.

    [L1020] Battery draining on sat nav?

    I'm also voting for the charger. With a good 1A charger from htc, I have no problem using navigation and music while I drive, and still maintain positive charge. Posted via the Windows Central App for Android

    Forgot vote much I love this phone...

    I've mostly moved on from Windows phone and my 1020, for all the usual reasons. I do keep the "yellow phone" as my kids call it for special events. We went to one of those events last night... And I wound up taking shots that simply would nite have come out with other phones. Can't post from...

    Nokia 1020 v Note 4 Camera

    ​I do have both devices. Both take excellent video. I prefer the 1020 because of the zoom, and the really superb OIS. I find at events, I wind up zooming in and out...very little loss of fidelity with the 1020, somewhat more with the note 4.

    denim on the 1020

    Then please explain what it is about the Snapdragon S4 Pro chips that doesn't support continuous autofocus. I can name a variety of phones with an S4 processor (HTC One X is a start) that support continuous autofocus. An alternate explanation: the code in the Lumia Camera app only supports...

    denim on the 1020

    This. The whole reason I use a camera phone is to take spur of the moment pictures of my kids, and of other events. I don't have time to fiddle with the shutter speed every time I want to take a flash picture! Burst mode pictures are grainy at best. I love my 1020 but my daily driver is now...

    Nokia 1020 v Note 4 Camera

    I have a 1020, a Note 4, and a Z3 Compact. I would like to echo some of the comments here. The Note 4 camera is quite good - certainly better than the Z3 for color balance, focus accuracy, and image processing - and is MUCH faster shot to shot than the Lumia 1020. Also, video is no contest...

    iOS8 vs WP8.1 vs Android 4.4 vs BB10

    Best of luck with the 930. Great device, wish it actually got LTE in the US. Keep track of how you actually do things with the 930...and whether you might have had other options on a One X, or on an iPhone for that matter. Posted via the Windows Phone Central App for Android

    iOS8 vs WP8.1 vs Android 4.4 vs BB10

    My company does mobile app development, so I get to test everything. Having said that, I love the look, feel, and functionality of Windows 8.1. I own a Lumia 1020 and a 925, and I've owned an Icon and a 928 (when I was with Verizon). I have been the biggest evangelist for WP. However, I've...

    925 vs 925.1

    Fwiw...i have a 925.5. Not sure how it differs from other models either. Had a fun time this morning with an iPhone ****** comparing size, screen and features with an iPhone 6 16gb in space gray. If the 925 only had a snapdragon 801 it would be about perfect.

    Not very happy so I'm selling both my 925's!

    FWIW...i have an at&t 925, as well as a 1020, a Moto X, and an Xperia Z2. 925 has by far the worst reception. I've had it with 8.0, 8 1 preview, 8.1 official with cyan. My 1020 is loads better. It's the design...get something else.

    Icon Or Stay With 928?

    It really does come down to the screen. The camera is not better enough to justify the switch. I'm very happy with the Icon but the 928 has a lot going for it.
