Re: WC 100K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
I guess I should make a guest appearance here.
I'm looking to add a 1520 because I'm on the big phones, big battery kick...Z Ultra and 1+1 (daily driver) in the stable. I like my 925 and next time I travel back home, that's what I may use...if my friend hasn't bought it off me for his wife yet. Even after a year on the market, the 1520 is still overpriced. I can understand the 930 being overpriced because it is still new, but due to MS not launching a credible flagship, there is a need to pay for outdated gear at crazy prices. The W8 by HTC doesn't work here because they'll launch the M9 by spring next year and selling the W8 is a great way to use up M8 hardware quicker.
The 1+1 is great for me right now. The camera is solid as long as there is OK enough lightning. Pure low lights though I miss my Lumia, as the 925's not cutting it anymore for my needs. Wouldn't touch the 930 unless used and a great deal...overheating when using the camera leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Plus the battery is too damn small.
MSFT is still asleep at the wheel because their changes aren't moving fast enough...don't expect breakneck speed but their siloed culture is biting them in the *** as they have to readjust now midstream.
Cannot blame folks like Rue, Chregu before him and myself for shifting focus from WP. Personally, I'd love to see MSFT jump to the 64-bit chips but they may just got to more 801s and 805s next year.
