    Nokia Lumia. 1020 still worth to buy?

    And don't forget that the 1020's sensor is about three times the size too :D

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    Your response was very eloquent and well delivered, and i completely and utterly agree with you. We loved the consistent layout, margins and fonts of all the apps, we loved the white space which some called "wasted space." I loved windows phone for its design, and now it's gone, :(

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    Because people asked for it? That really isn't a very good reason for me at all. One of my favourite quotes is from steve jobs who said, "The customer doesn't know what they want, you have to show them," and I believe that is so true with design. I have been reading forums where people are...

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    I know, with our duel and quad for phone with millions of gigs of ram, you'd think that phones would blaze through the os these days, but day to day, my 1020 feels slower than my surround

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    and also with design. The distinctive typography, the clean lines, white space, the consistent layout of apps that we all love is slowly being ebbed away to reveal a cluttered chaotic mess of different fonts, colours and margins. The design is the main reason why I loathe android

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    well, I've been with Windows Phone since the very start, and I have always been a dedicated ambassador of sorts in they eyes of the people around me, so switching to an iPhone is like me surrendering and admitting defeat, and that I have been wrong for all these years :( And why wouldn't I be...

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    Adding features is fine, but they're loosing focus, and are thus neglecting what WP was about, what it stood for and what we loved about it. Lets face it, we bought a Windows Phone for its gorgeous UI design, the beautiful typography, its smoothness, the hubs, the live tiles, the integrated...

    Is Windows Phone becoming android?

    I would like to begin with my history with Windows Phone. My first experience with wp7 was flicking through the the start screen of a HTC HD7, admiring the gorgeous simple squares, the unusual bounce that stopped when you scrolled too hard, the Zune hub with that transparent background and the...

    Survey: are you satisfied with WP8.1 so far, or is it not what you expected?

    What do you mean it's absurd, it's a perfectly reasonable comment to make if I'm honest. Something that really sold WP7 to me back in the day way undoubtably the design and the general UI. Metro was utterly stunning, so simple pure and clean, with its sold blocks of colour, tasteful use of white...

    Is the music app really that bad?

    Don't upgrade. 8.1 has completely ruined the WP experience for me. The music hub although has similar functionality to the old one, performance is a lot worse. There are now significant splash screens that really ruin the experience for me. The gorgeous live titles are now gone. This is also...

    1020 or Samsung K Zoom

    I don't want to go into a wp8 vs android debate, you can probably make up your own mind, but in terms of image quality, the 1020 should blow the samsung into the weeds. As you pointed out, it has a bigger sensor (that is actually twice as big) and its aperture is so much larger at 2.2 as opposed...

    "Other" memory limitation fixed in 8.1?

    Actually mine's now at 3gb, so I'm not too sure... Anyone else?

    "Other" memory limitation fixed in 8.1?

    My other storage in my 1020 went from 12gb down to 2gb after installing 8.1, so I think it's been solved :)

    Facebook integration Problems

    I agree with absolutely everything you're saying. I remember back in the day during the wp7 era, I was first attracted to windows phone because the Facebook chat and man was integrated with your messages, and you could switch between them so easily. The people's hub was also fantastic and...

    1020 vs 920 low light

    Sorry guys, I don't usually post, but this thread is really starting to annoy me. Firstly it is impossible for the 920 to have better low light capabilities than the 1020, for the sensor is four times smaller, and thus it can only capture 1/4th of the light that the 1020 gathers. Furthermore...
