BTW off topic i think the Tetra Lockscreen app by Microsoft gives us a glimpse of how the Windows 10 lockscreen may look like, direct access to app features on the lockscreen. Pretty cool stuff.
I've had two 1020 (with AMOLED screens) and IMHO, I think Nokia has done a fantastic job with their "Clearblack" IPS LCD technology. I've never thought to myself "Gee, that black is just not black enough!" Certainly not "pathetic" as you say... (note, there's the refection of a white ceiling on the phone in this pic)

With that said, I prefer LCD screens over OLED any day. The LCD doesn't suffer from the blurriness and ghosting when scrolling text.. and doesn't suffer from the screen burn in (like my last 1020 did!) Also, much better outdoor/sunlight readability, more accurate colors, better brightness and better whites..
Guys I don't know much about the screen technologies but I've compared both displays of the 1020 & 930 on Gsmarena, if you check attached pic View attachment 93088
Is it because the 930 packs much more pixel density into a 5 inch screen makes the 930 not able to grab Glance? Cause I see both phones using AMOLED capacitive touchscreen.
I've also been hearing conflicting views from users over if Glance uses lots of battery in comparison to double tapping the phone to wake to see lock screen which it seems to some consume more power since it wakes up the cpu & other stuff of the phone. Well IMO when Nokia brought out Glance, they already beated competitors in terms of just "glancing" to your phone to see the notifications instead of just a notification light & would make sure it doesn't drain battery.
If indeed it requires lots more power from phone to double tap to see notifications on 930, would it balance out in terms of battery life since 930 comes with 2420 mAh in comparison to 2000 mAh?
Checking time on my Watch and unlocking phone to check notification or there is another way ?
What a silly topic. Glance is overrated.
Lost Glance also moving to an M8. Got to say between the lock screen and dot view case there is only one feature I miss. That would be the nightstand function, I just can't find a clock app that dims the M8 backlight enough to make it feasible.

Because there is no other way to check time or notification ? yeah right... quite underrated. I think it didn't help my life to be easier on my L920 with Glance. And it is not a bother to me on my L930. I have few watch which i wear all the time and double tap wake my phone instantly so i can check my notification right on it.
People only got lazy in my opinion.
I don't miss it on my 930. Don't want to see the time always and surely impacts battery too.
