The Lumia 1020 has a puremotion HD+ display too and its an AMOLED. I'm pretty sure its just an advertising term exaggerating how smooth the images move in 60 Hz
Edit: Most Lumias have these features now http://lumiaconversations.microsoft.com/2012/09/06/the-smartphone-display-redefined-puremotion-hd/

In that link it says about HD ips..
But you're right, 1020 it has amoled and pure motion. Even so, imagine a 1.8 L engine, with turbo, and a 4 L engine with turbo. In terms of branding and engineering, both are turbo(like amoled and lcd pure motion), but in terms of perfomance, they are so different.
In 1020, actually it's an improoved refresh rate, with some software tweaks, but it cannot equal and lcd(hardware speaking) - every pixel is always on, on amoled they are switching on and off, but both are called pure motion.
Coming back to reality, pure motion is only needed when watching movies, or playing demanding games. I think that no one will play seriously demanding games on their phones, and even if you play this kind of games 60hz are not enough, and when you watch movies, you have to know that you are watching on your mobile device so no cinema quality or HD tv quality expectations.
You can observe the lack of pure motion when switching photos, but for this to happen you have to swithch them very fast, so in reality you want to see photos, not to switch them very fast. Like benchmarks, even so the phone is not with the latest hardware, you will not benchmark it everyday, just because it can, or cannot do something.
On my tv, sometims when watching movies, I switch from 800hz refresh rate to 100 or 200 because altough the motion is more fluid on 800 and you can see more details, the movie loses their cinematic feeling, and it looks like something i just filmed with my camera.
The most evident lack of pure motion is when reading black text on white. If you are scrooling very fast you can see a ghosting effect, because the pixels are turning on white very fast and others turning off, but I doubt that someone can read 2 pages per second to scroll that fast and be affected.
Maybe you will find that 0,0001% situation when pure motion is needed but, even so, the display on Lumia 930 will perform like a champ and will not let you down in that situation...
Before switching to win phone, i remember buying the first HTC one. I was very thrilled about that infrared sensor, and nfc...but guess what: Did I ever used them?! NEVER!
So it's not about what the hardware can perform, it's about what you really need.. Would you feel better just to have an extra display option, on a very good display, that won't basically do any difference?
Now they are adding QHd screens, but those screens are draining battery faster, in sunlight they are loosing readability, and for what? The human eye won't see the difference.
In conclusion, I am very satisfied with the screen, and I think that people are not satisfied by the Idea that something older has something considerred a plus, and with something newer they don't have it, altough they will never use it, need it or see any difference...

The truth is that they are running out of features to show off. If they don't advance with their screen resolutions then there wouldn't be a reason to by a flagship anymore since even cheap phones can have 1080p screens. They can't stop. And while QHD kills the battery. So did 1080p and 720p when they came out but look now, phones like the z3 have long battery life with the resolutions because the displays eventually become more efficient.

That's true..but the best thing that sells it's the image and the interface.
They could invest more in the store, in the interface(look at apple - not such a powerfull device, not even with full HD), because I am mad that I cannot attach files to emails(only pictures).. they could add a finger print scanner and a 64bits processor...it's a lot of room for improvements. They could invest in the battery life researching...etc...
And yes, it's true, that they advance from 720 to 1080, but this happened because the difference was so obvious, you can see pixels on 720p display, but 1080 not anymore, so..why go that direction? And also a cheap 1080p display cannot be compared with a more expensive one.
