Hey, guys. I'm anxiously awaiting November for the new crop of Windows Phones. I'm definitely getting one, but given HTC's announcement, my original choice (Lumia 920) isn't quite as clear.
I actually prefer a slightly smaller phone, as I have tablets. But the Lumia 820 isn't really an option (too many compromises). The HTC 8x looks really good. I like the form factor, style, and specs. It basically seems like it might be an HTC One X with WP8 on it.
It comes down to the camera, for me. Which do you think will be better overall? HTC One X took decent shots and I love the zero lag shutter. If we can get something like that on WP8, it would be awesome. However, Nokia is known for making good cameras and the floating lens is compelling.
Do you think the shot-to-shot time will be slow on the Lumia 920, like it is with current Windows Phones (in comparison to other phones, like the Galaxy Nexus and HTC One X)? Will the image chip give the 8X a distinct advantage in that department, or do you think it's more of a gimmick?
I'm turning this into a poll to see which feature you think matters more: The Dedicated image chip or the floating lens, but I'd be curious to see what your take is on which phone may have the better camera.
