One word: 630
This phone, as beautiful as it may be, costs more then 3 times the 630, yet includes the same CPU.
Sure there are marginal upgrades like 1GB of RAM, better cameras, and a slightly nicer display, but who will pay THAT much more for a handful of upgrades and a similar, if not identical experience?
The 830 is a nice phone, don't get me wrong. I want it... Just not at the $350 US (approx) price point.
That is nexus money for what is most certainly NOT a flagship device.
That leaves me to my last point, and that is the marketing. This is the first time I have watched a presentation by MS/Nokia and felt genuinely misled. The word flagship should never have been uttered, and this phone should have been $199.
Congrats on another dud, MS.
