Thinking of getting a Lumia 920? This review did it for me!

[evilrob]

Some of you may have seen I have been thinking about switching from Apple to Microsoft, and I've been asking for peoples' experiences of switching from iPhone to Windows Phone.

Well this review was the tipping point for me:


And a follow-up:


Great review, done beautifully.

Beautifully done. The author is a designer at Microsoft. Wish I was half as talented. My best creations are merely stick people in comparison. :unhappy:

Well done. Love my 920!

I managed to find a yellow Lumia 920 on ebay at a good price, got it today...it is way better than I expected and makes my Lumia 900 look and feel old! So yes, definitely no buyers regret here!

The awesome photography helped that review as well... I wonder what the camera was...

I'm guessing it was a Sony RX-1:

The honesty of that review is what makes it stand out. Really great camera work to sell the phone's different features, too.

I like to think that it was another L920

What a shame - was a really great review.

No kidding, what a terrible policy. I understand it is a Mobile Nations forum and they can make all the self serving rules they want.
However, it really limits a real Windows Phone community voice with corporate rules like this.
What if Facebook only allowed links to Facebook posts, or Twitter only allowed links to Twitter Posts?
What is Mobile Nations so scared of, the cream always rises to the top.

Wow. Unbelievable policy.

Completely agreed, looks very absurd. But it must be because they must generate some income somehow - not that I quite get how this would work though. But if people were thus allowed to register and post links to other pages that generate revenues for their owners, then I do see the point of this. Not that i think that was Evilrob's intention at all.
"Chances are we wrote it first, better, and deserve a little love.". Chances are they didn't write it in the first place and/or have no intention to write about every story out there.... that's the problem.

Now I'll never read the review :'(

Their policy is so freaking unfair. Citing the source is a must for solution and journalism, period. Their policy is hypocritical. They want you to post your content/hacks/tips on their discussion forum without citing source. Lot of people run their blog/site which provides useful/helpful tips and if they take the chance to post their article here or if someone else does....THE SOURCE has to be cited. "No Outside links" crap builds a pool of resource that they OWN?? dahell.
We have to find a better, more open posting for Windows Phone and Windows related issue.

Holy cow, really? What a terrible policy

If you were to type " into your favourite search engine, if you come across a review with beautiful photos written by a guy who switched from an iPhone, you will have found it.

I am shocked that is a rule here on mobile nation. But as a forum owner, I do understand.

The review was excellent though. I searched through Bing
