    So is the Lumia 1020 obsolete now?

    While I agree that a lot of people who think their computer is obsolete need to take a better look at what they actually use it for I WOULD submit that a Win98 PC is obsolete even for browsing the web. After all, it's locked to older browser versions which lack CSS3+HTML5 support and are far...

    Nokia to Delay Launch of the 1520?

    Agreed. This was a HUGE agitation for me when I waited on the Lumia 920.

    So who want's Nokia's Phablet?

    Me too. I ditched WP8 after some months with my Lumia 920 but that was mostly for business reasons and I've regretted the decision more and more as details on GDR3 and 8.1 have come out. Now, with the 1520 I'm totally sold on returning to WP as the only thing I like about my current Note II...

    why are we still not getting major apps on wp8

    In terms of the Smartphone market, I believe the US is the second largest market in 2013 sales after China. I wouldn't say that they should bet the farm on the US due to the popularity of the iHerd here in the States but I would still put quite a bit of emphasis on it.

    XBox to be spun-off into its own company [speculation]

    I agree that the idea of selling off xbox is a crazy idea. Right now Microsoft is in their best position in years to revitalize the business. Anything other than this would be making a short term gain at the cost of long term profits. The integrated kernel between WP8, WinRT, Win8, and xbox...

    Who's NOT happy with the screen size?

    Personally I'm excited about this size. I had a 920 on launch day but after a few issues (including a number of friends getting red 920s and making me lose my uniqueness :( ) I went to the Galaxy Note II for that huge screen size. I'm not overly attached to Android though and am positively...

    Would you buy your 920 again?

    Without a doubt I would buy my 920 again. I would even get the red one again despite a friend teasing me about not getting a manly phone color. It just stands out so well and makes me feel really unique to have such a noticeable phone.

    Nokia Music vs Xbox Music Pass

    I'm looking to see if anyone that has experience with both the Xbox Music Pass and Nokia Music would be willing to share a small comparison of the two. So far, all I've really seen that makes me want to pay for Xbox Music Pass is that I can also run it on my xbox 360. I don't use media...

    In Store Free Charging Plate

    I bought my phone in store on Friday and had them ship my plate to the store near my office. Yesterday I went in to pick it up after getting my email that it had arrive (shipping email came on Saturday).

    If your not getting this type of battery life...

    My battery life was running really well with moderate usage and 2 email accounts on push. So far I haven't set up many background tasks but even with that throughout a roughly 10-hour period I'd only lose 10-20% depending on if I spent any time playing games on my Lumia. Yesterday I picked up...

    The lack of knowledge about Lumia is just not acceptable

    I got my first AT&T phones from corporate stores but when I went to college and they were now Cingular I ended up going to a retailer a few times. I had similar experiences with them that led to me swearing off retailers entirely as well. Now, with the Lumia preorder issues I've sworn off...

    [poll] Lumia 920 customer satisfaction

    I have had nothing but good experiences with mine. The battery life has been excellent so far and it is attracting a lot of attention, which is why I went with red. I love the feel of the device so far. The way it feels in my hand is much nicer than my old HTC Vivid. And the curved glass...

    Lumia 920 battery - Your opinions

    According to my phone's stats, it's been 7 hours since I took it off the charging stand and it's at 90% remaining (18 hours estimated). Mind you that's light use with showing it to friends, some surfing, texting, and about 15 minutes of Nokia Music to my car with bluetooth.

    Is anyone not complaining about their 920...

    I ABSOLUTELY love my 920! So glad that I made the switch to Windows Phone after my year on Android (and iOS before that).

    Slipperiness of matte vs gloss

    I bought a matte 920 yesterday because the store only had black and said nobody in town had red. Today, while going to a different store for a charging stand I found a red 920 and exchanged for the color I wanted. I thought I'd share that I have found the gloss finish 920 to be MUCH less...
