I have seen a review yesterday that said the phone call quality is not quite good.....is it true?
Call quality is as good as I've ever had on a cell phone.

If you read the defects thread, you will see that I am one of those people mentioning a defect. Yes, my screen has a color hue issue (and getting it replaced today), but with that said this is the best phone I've ever had. I'm talking hardware and software.What a beautiful device , the bulls , the screen the 1080p the colors etc - perfection ...
Then I read the reviews , the articles the videos , this forum and what do I see? a device that falls way short of doing what a smart phone should do - I can't get notifications ? wait what?
I see all kinds of bugs - ugh
really ticked.
You can't talk icon without talking OS. OS is like the bread of a sandwich - if the bread sucks so does the sangwich.

That's horrendous tough right ? No you tube app?
Is there an xm app?
Knock off apps ? Yeesh ... I mean WP OS comes off as worse than blackberry is these days .
No google now talk. ?
Limited phone - limiting my options .. Not good @ all .
I wanted to love this phone , hardware is awesome .
So many trolls in the Icon subsection...
iPhones don't have any indicators either.
Wah, I have to press a button to see notifications. Cry me a river!
What are your specific concerns beyond can't get notifications? All windows phones get notifications and show them through live tiles and also on the lock screen. If you don't pin an app/put it on the lock screen that you need notifications for then no you won't see them until you open the app.
I came to the Icon/WP from android, and for me the live tiles can be okay for notifications - but only if you are already on the home screen. If you are doing anything else - making a call, composing an email, using an app, etc., you cannot see the live tiles and therefore you don't know if the chime was because your phone started/stopped charging, you have a new move in WWF, or you have to leave NOW for that client meeting
.
that's a fair and well thought out answer and actually speaks to your use case. Thanks for the perspective as its been a couple of years since I used android. And yes, if notification aggregation that doesn't interrupt app use, buying a windows phone now is not the right buy. Waiting for 8.1 or buying an android/iPhone are the other options in that case.
It's all about the priorities of the user. I was responding to blanket statements about not getting notifications which was flat out wrong on it's face. And I say all that knowing it will probably be nice to have the notification drawer in 8.1, as long as they design it well.
