I don't recall anyone bashing the specs. They were bashing the price, and rightfully so.
If the 830 is the first to get the "Microsoft" branding I am so buying it!
It sure is sounding good. I can't wait to get my hands on it come Nov 7!Fun thread. Nice to see the L830 has been a nice surprise. I think MS's idea to package it at the announcement as an affordable flagship was the sole reason for the pushback on this phone. Everyone knows the 8XX series is the step below the flagship, with a few trade-offs to get the price down. The L830 hits all the right markers for it to be a top end 8XX series, and a serious improvement over any dual core WP. My L920 is quite a bit more sluggish with 8.1 on it. I am willing to bet the real life performance of the L830 will make me all shades of envious.
Keep the love coming!! I need the good news....
Does 'double-tap to wake' work reliably on the 830? I have a 925 and it works about 30% of the time.
I've come to understand on my 822 that is not really Double tap but "Triple" tap. Try it.Does 'double-tap to wake' work reliably on the 830? I have a 925 and it works about 30% of the time.
Agreed, the haptic feedback is to weak and needs to be increased. I hope this can be done via some quick firmware update, independently of the carriers.I have been trying out an 830 from Nokia/MS and yes it is a great little phone. Things I don't like is the feedback from the buttons its so weak its almost pointless being on there.
That's not happening. The 830 has the Nokia branding on it. It and the 730/735 are the last handsets to have it.
Really!!!!True, although I just heard of a sighting of a Lumia 735 with Microsoft branding. No joke.
