New here and thought I'd share some initial impressions on the Lumia 900.
I've used iPhone exclusively since it came out in 2007 and have had every version. Last week I got an itch for something new so, I purchased a black Lumia 900 from Ebay (I can switch my sim card into it).
Well, after playing with it for a day I found this so far:
Good stuff:
Beautiful huge screen!
Very fluid and fun UI
Like the "back" button
Ease of setup
The bad:
No screenshot function (I use this way more than one would expect on my iPhone)
No google option without having to actually nav to google.com (or am I missing something?
It seems that there is no ear piece isolation. Even at low volume, people near me could hear my caller speaking to me. That is NOT good.
No iTunes (I know, I know )
That's it for now. I'm sure after a few days of real-world use I have some more goods and bads. It's just weird getting used to a new UI after all these years. Like having a new girlfriend: Fun and exciting and refreshing but missing the comfort of knowing someone so well after a long time!
Thanks for reading!
