This is ridiculous excuse to say about microsd. I might as well say you can easily lose both the USB OTG and the flash drive if you are that careless to even lose the microsd every time you take it out. You don't even often have to take out the microsd whereby USB OTG you have to constantly remind yourself to bring it along with you which increase the likely hood of you misplace the cable.

That is the only advantage of USB OTG, but I have rarely encounter situation where I need to use USB OTG to transfer data to someone else. It must have been like 2-3 times I did that. Majority of my transfer was done via Wifi / data cable transfer, or simply email to them.

Also, micro sd card reader are small nowadays, can also be kept anywhere.

See this:



A lot more convenient to carry than USB OTG, can even stick on your keychain.

haha ASPIRE already explain 2 us y he is jumping out of the bandwagon already

I was looking forward to his photos using 920.

Even now, I have to stick my unused micro-sd cards into sd adapters to prevent them from getting misplaced, because there are too small. Anyway, removing micro-sd cards from phones is itself a hassle.

Like I said, the situation to use the USB OTG is when you are on the move and there is no computer around, so card readers are useless anyway. That's why it is called USB On-the-go. The main use of this to backup photos into one or more usb drives, to prevent total loss of photos when you are on vacation, in case you lose the phone.

At first yes because they keep twisting like that I also scare. I only keep using Nokia because of the camera. But now it's getting worse and worse the tech. I prefer iOS becaus of its notification and simplify.

Just look at 920 camera is worse than a Nokia n8 camera except for OIS and floating lens.

Nokia is not famous like last time they can simply twist and turn.

Have u seen iPhone suddenly give u 8mp tomorrow become 5mp the device keeps getting better.
See s3 how sux it keep getting better.

Well, your photos will be missed sifu.

For me personally, I believe the floating lens and its low light abilities will better suit shaky hands like mine. Just that like I've previously said, I hope the pricing will be reasonable. Nokia pricing frighten me most of the time.

As this is a smartphone, not a DSLR, the most important thing that I want out from its camera is the ability to shoot in dark situations without using flash and to be able to take videos without shakiness. I think Nokia is spot on, in these regards, to focus on these two key features.

If I'm really into super high resolution, I would expect that from a DSLR, not from a smartphone.

A smartphone is often used for taking pictures in unplanned situations, so megapixel count does not matter. Correct exposure and non-blurry images is all that matters in such situations.

Agreed.

I have dslr and tell you the truth there tons of burden you need consider
1st high maintenance and cost
2nd many places not allow to bring camera
3rd size too big and heavy
4th Not practical

Indeed smartphone is often used for taking pictures in unplanned situation with stunning image quality. Our disappointment is not about the usage of the camera but the tech given. Make it this way someone gave u a nokia lumia 920 then suddenly he take it away and give u a Nokia n73. Get it you feel downgrade and u are still paying the same price

It does matter if you know how to use the feature. I have learn how to utilized megapixels to capture stunning images and some dslr users with the same price of my mobile phone can't take the photos I took with a smartphone. The best my phone can take amazing photos, can SMS, can email, can access Internet and etc

If u ask a lot ppl here they know I spend a lot time in mobile photography and I know the potential. With a more expensive camera doesn't make you better is how you use it matters.

Have u used a Nokia 808 pureview? If yes u will understand if not hard to explain . Just imagine 808 pureview add floating lens and OIS that would be an ultimate camera phone a standard nobody can beat for now.


Have u heard the audio recorded by a Nokia 808 pureview it's better than a dslr mic u know.

Have u seen video recorded by 808 especially low light. You will be amaze from a mobile phone.

Have u tried Nokia lossless zoom in video and photos there no pixelated not even crop it's clear that is also what consumer needs.

I totally understand the needs from a photography enthusiast's point of view. I used to be very interested in photography as a hobby. But for people who doesn't have the interest, the ability to shoot good enough photos without harsh flashing and blurriness is definitely something that we look for in a smartphone.

Obviously, the 808 is a superb cameraphone, but its bulkiness is a hindrance for the features to be included into a mainstream, multi-purpose smartphone. For photography enthusiats like you, better hope for another Nokia model then, which comes with the combined 41MP sensor and ther new Lumia 920 features. I doubt the upcoming IP5 would be having those features that you are looking for.

Yeap for normal users 920 consider okay. I understand where you coming from. Ip5 yes won't have those features but like many said overall for a smart phone it's already sufficient. Camera I guess I either use back my Nokia n8 or get a 808 pureview.

What really matters to me is the resell value

i think you disappointed with Nokia Lumia but not Windows Phone,right?

Yeap you are right.

if you want pureview 808 with floating lense then you cannot expect it to fit into a sexy chasis like lumia. the tech is just not there yet. Don't thing apple or samsung can give u that as well.

But i understand where you are coming from. You already have the 808, then no point going for 920. But for the rest of us who don't have 808 and want a sexy phone, 920 is awesome

In a way you are right. I dont expect it to be an 808 just expect half of it. The problem with 920 it has the name of pureview but there nothing to do with its previous successor. Its more like a marketing name thats it. My expectation benefit is for consumers.

Like i said numerous time

Nokia 808 pureview

Lossless zoom - Not on 920
Nokia Rich recording - Not on 920
Nokia pixels oversampling - Not on 920
Nokia Xenon flash - Not on 920
Nokia OIS - not on 808
Nokia so called float sensor - Not on 808
Nokia LED flash pulse - not on 808

For nokia rich recording watch this video




Lossless zoom


They just removed all this from the Nokia Lumia 920

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_camera-4961.php

2G Network N/A
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE

Its aperture is only 2.8 . Only good thing about this is the android and optical zoom
