looks nice but still i prefer black, want different color jz get a case from taobao  tongue.gif , since even the original soft cover  will cover all the "color" part of the phone except the screen, camera parts, ports.

i had order this white color hard shell  brows.gif

Rendering is actually not really Microsoft's fault. They have been trying very hard to follow web standards, but a lot of web developers only develop their webpages for WebKit, which can be found in iPhone and Android browsers. That's why a lot of mobile/touch optimized sites don't work as good on IE9, which is using the Trident engine.

can you detail on those bolded words? thx

Hmm... Good example would be touch.facebook.com and m.gsmarena.com

Try that with Windows Phone and iPhone, you will get what I mean.

on white background also can notice it...
it will be more obvious if the background is gray color or you adjust the brightness to lowest..
i think similar issue as the Galaxy S2 yellow tint ...

btw.. my lumia 800 is already in the Nokia Care Center... they need at least 3 working days to get back to me on this issue.... damn... cry.gif

ooo isn't that common issue with amoled screen, iirc

other than that issue, what other you noticed?

as what other mentioned... both are totally different platform...
what i can say.. even it is a single core soc inside... it runs smoother than those android which are on dualcore soc...
and wp7 people hub is great... i like it so much.. none of the android apps can complete with it..
anyway... i still not really get into wp7 yet... as i use it as my secondary phone and just got it 3days back...

okies thanks, really appreciate it
i use these to counter them and show off people hub

okay I know I'm very vain on that laugh.gif

Both are very different, can't really compare.

Windows Phone is about simplicity, smoothness, easy to use, stable, reliable; but it has many restriction and limitation (but if you're the user that doesn't care/bother about these, it won't bother you, just like iPhone users, most of them are fine with it).

Android is about flexibility, power, customizations, little/no restrictions and limitations, freedom. People who likes to customize, wants freedom, flexibility, will prefer Android. With this, they may have to sacrifice on the response, smoothness, etc. BUT it doesn't mean it will not have, it depends on HOW the device is being use.
Just like a sports car, if you buy a sports car and want to save fuel, you can drive slow like turtle, or you can utilize the power and sacrifice on fuel. A better example would of course be a PC, it depends how you use your PC, if you run many programs, obviously you may face issue like lag, etc.

So, as above, it really depends which type you prefer, it's very much different. Those who like Android for it's customization, flexibility, freedom, will hate Windows Phone limitation, restriction, although they may like the smoothness and other features like People Hub. Too bad, there's still no one OS that has almost everything to date. Nokia could've done it with Maemo, but sadly, they killed it when it's still a baby.

Being two very different category, it's hard to compare, you may be able to show the responsiveness, smoothness, the People Hub; but Android has the flexibility to customize, the freedom to browse their files, send files, play music, play videos, flash support, tons of browser selection, etc.  So, both have it's pros and cons and suit different category of users.

smile.gif i understand wht you mean, just tht my friends keep pestering me for liking this phone
but they don't really go and do customization for their android, just said that it's duo core :/
and they actually prefer ios too

no matter, thanks, I'll be content with my L800 when I have it (in 2 months..i think)
before tht I have an imaginary one in my head blush.gif
