Three 5-inch FHD Windows Phones. Which one is best?
Is it the Nokia Icon for it's camera and wireless charging?
Or the HTC One M8 for expandable storage and front facing speakers?
What about the Samsung Ativ SE, the middle man?
 
I came in expecting to see an analyst of the three. Let me just get a chair.
 
Its going to depend on what you want. I chose the Icon over the M8 and Ativ because of the camera, AMOLED, wireless charging, dedicated camera button and the support Nokia gives. The speakers and expandable memory dont mean anything to me but they will to someone else. Oh and I don't like on-screen home buttons.
 
If only Samsung dedicate a little attention to their WP line, that would be enough for me to consider their phones. I had the Focus S for a couple of months and it was such nice phone, but at the end i had to go with the L900 for the exclusive apps and the support.

It's not only about specs, the software support matters too like updates and that's where Nokia-MS wins.
