THIS!!!! I'm so tired of getting recycled hardware. Yes, Windows Phone runs FINE on even low-end hardware (evidenced by the 520), but they need to make something that is AHEAD of the curve that will last for a while. The iPhone 4s GPU can still outpace the Lumia 920 GPU in games and stuff, and that's sad that the phone is 2 years old now. I think the problem is Nokia can't afford to go that hard right now, so hopefully this is where Microsoft can kick in and provide some financial backing to get this type of hardware built.
It runs fine as you say, so why spend extra for hardware we really don't need? It just makes the phone more expensive to buy and here we all are with our 920s and tbh we don't really need new phones as it still runs amazingly after a year. I don't play top end games though, maybe a bit more power is required for gamers. Anyway the 1520 has the latest hardware in it, so Nokia have stepped up now in any case.
But I still would like a new toy, for me as a replacement I am fine with the specs of the 1520, but want it in a sub 5" device. I don't really want bigger than the 920's 4.5" screen, but reckon with a thinner device I could go up to 5" wide. So just a best of everything device, 920 built in charging, 1020 camera, 1520 internals and screen res, 625 screen size, 8210 weight (was my first Nokia).
