I've been skeptical of anything WP lately but for some reason I think this whatsapp is going to be really good. Just a hunch.

I'm counting on them rewriting the app from scratch for wp8. If they didn't then yeah the quality most probably won't be too much different.

ermmmm but this feature IS in Windows Phone. My phone has it, my colleague's phone has it. We are both running on Windows 7.5. I dont see how this is removed from Windows Phone 8.

you go to people hub, type in the first letter of contact J for example, it will list everybodys name starting with j. it will filter further the more letters that you put in.

dialer tai kor dialer not people hub.

You're misreading the link you quoted. Since Malaysian Lumias aren't carrier bound, from the link, those with carrier-linked Lumias would get the update faster than those without carrier-linked. Which points towards the Malaysian version,which means at the earliest, February 2013.

I'm not a fan of waiting, and waiting for 2 months in tech years is a lifetime.  What I dont understand is why the non-carrier-linked Lumias had to wait for the carrier-linked ones are given priority for update first. Wouldn't it be easier to update the non-carrier-linked ones since they should universal across all region, compared to the complexities of those linked to carriers?

Those linked once are the ppl that push their sales just like iphone. Its not apple selling iphone but telco selling the iphones

Seriously? Cos ppl keep telling note 2 is better than ip5 and now Lumia is better than note 2? Can u let me know what makes u think that 920 is a superior phone? Cos right now I am really cant make up my mind between these three.. icon_question.gif
*
depends i have tested both if you are talking about overall note 2 always wins.


1. BATTERY LIFE
Note 2 has a 3100mah battery while the 920 have a 2000mah when i said heavy usage i would use it from 100% until the phone battery died not like some forumer in this forum they tell you 20mins call 30sms 30 whatsapp message and some facebook can roughly last a day.

When u push its limits to the max you know average how long it last on battery life note 2 wins since then i have never bother to worry about battery life furthermore back then on my lumia 800/900 i need to turn off 3G or else the battery will deplete even faster.

So conclusion for battery life Note 2 wins if you monitor the statsitic even its a quad core its not always running at 1.6ghz but only when its needed thats one of the way to extend its battery life


2. CAMERA
Nokia Lumia 920 have a float lens and OIS with this two is enough to beat Samsung Galaxy Note 2 camera even using BSI Sensor.

Here some random test shot i did Lumia 920 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 2
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=56629039

So conclusion Camera in photo imaging and video recording goes to Nokia Lumia 920


3. AUDIO
I have tested the Nokia monster headset on both Nokia Lumia 920 and Samsung Galaxy Note 2 the audio sound alot better on Note 2 because it has a wolfson audio chip built in. The audio on the Nokia Lumia 920 sound very dull and low regardless what you do.
http://www.gizbot.com/mobile/samsung-mobil...-galaxy-s3.html

So conclusion the winner goes to Samsung Galaxy Note 2

5. SCREEN SIZE
user posted image

Since i used the Note 2 it becomes more like a phablet a phone comes tablet so everything looks sharp and clear due to its huge 5.5inch screen visibility while browsing is just great , video play back is amazing. Battery life is also great you can watch 4 to 5 of continous video and still have plenty of juice left. Try it yourself

So conclusion It depends on individual some prefer smaller screen as a phone some like me prefer both world into one.


6. SCREEN DIRECT SUNLIGHT VISIBILITY
For direct sunlight test Nokia Lumia 920 wins due to its clearblack display technology its sharp and clear in most condition unlike note 2 it uses brightness to compensate resulting in heavy battery drain.

Conclusion Nokia Lumia 920 wins


7. WRITING S-PEN

S-pen can do many things like screen hovering over icons, take screenshots, handwriting recognition, crop images and etc watch the above video the learn more while the Nokia Lumia 920 you cant do all those but you can use anything even wearing glove to become a stylus.

Conclusion Samsung Galaxy Note 2 wins here

8. MULTITASKING


In multitasking clearly samsung galaxy note 2 is superior you can even have multi window. If you dont close the apps it will stay running in the background like your computer and multi window like the video you can like send sms while watching watch your youtube video or web browsing and watching video, and many more combination of your choice.

Conclusion : Samsung Galaxy Note 2


9. HOMESCREEN

This part is very subjective because Note 2 you can customizable widgets, icons , various pages and etc when Nokia Lumia 920 you can only do tiles and only 1 way scrolling. Dont forget samsung galaxy note 2 can even add live wallpaper in the background. Some ppl will say you add background the phone will lag from my experience my phone is using live wallpaper and i love it without experiencing any lag.

So conclusion : it depends on invidiual taste for me i prefer samsung galaxy Note 2


10. NETWORK
Nokia Lumia 920 wins because its LTE ready when the samsung galaxy note 2 international version GT7100 available in malaysia do not support LTE

So conclusion goes to Nokia Lumia 920

lol not i dont want its just not enough to show. Since mutt ask for comparison i just give

End up i be talking is the camera , social integration with lots of limitation, customizable tiles to your style. If he have asked whats the pros in WP8 then my approach will be different.

i havent go into apps/ gesture motions / auto pop up shortcuts / expandable storage up to 64GB via micro sd card/ removable back cover/ Notifications lights up to 7 to 10 colours / Glowing phone only work on White Note 2 / Front camera works with local 3G calls/ Custmizable blocking mode / Security if your phone got stolen / modding custom rom / Save whatsapp conversation/ Free 30GB dropbox and so much more.

haha i only giving comparison because forumer ask for it not because purposely go off topic before some noob will start bragging and crying if exist.

My Lumia 920 battery last only 1 day without heavy use. Full in the morning, died (turned off) at around 10pm. Defective battery?

I noticed the phone heats up (at the back) when i play with it for a few minutes. Same case when i'm charging it. The heat is noticeable, not like the residual heat when u hold some thing for some time.

Switch 3G to 2.5g u will be shocked
