HahaXD I plan to buy Lumia 800 at first as well. I have read quite a few articles and posts about Lumia 800 and I believe it's quite good based on the low price.
Pros: GPS offline Decent camera Nice design People Hub would be great if you like to socialize
Cons: It does not support ussd code (eg. *100#) Rumours about bad battery life Although camera is good, you might need to adjust the settings to get the best effect No front camera
All the sifus, feel free to add and comment
Not buying it because I'm waiting for Windows 8 ^^

Pros: GPS offline is good, sometimes slow on my end but with assisted gps, this phone works great. The other day my mom tries to pasang her gps on the car while it kept on looking for signal but my phone was able to get the destination and route instantly. Decent camera? Is one of the best camera out there if only you know how to operate a "basic camera" not just snap. Nice design? Yes definitely, not like some phones just plain ripped off another and end up in spending their money on courts. People hub's integration is a godsend stalker ability, I mean I can pull out my phone and check for updates during a gossip, just saying
Cons: USSD code are old and telco should do something about it unless you're on prepaid, "deal with it". If can't live without USSD codes, don't bother getting any WPs. Rumors about bad battery life? My man, where do you get this article or news from? Must be from last year huh? Nokia already updated their firmware and manage to get triple the battery life. I've posted some updates on the battery life on this forum, someone who managed to keep their battery life (Lumia 800) for 3 days since last charge, hows that for a poor battery life? It's not like all the other smartphones out there will last that long. Camera settings, yes but some apps with camera function performs better reported by some forumer but I can live with the default one. Front facing camera, that, you have to ask yourself if you really need to do video calls.
What do you mean by operating a basic camera? LolXD I think I just know how to snap hahaXD Gonna get some online tutorials
Haha, ya, I was told that after the update it improves, that's why I';m mentioning "rumors" Lol

HURMMM... Say if pureview has been put into coming Lumia phones for the front and back camera, front facing camera will have 5MP and the revolutionary 18MP back camera because of the case design limitation.
18MP is cool enough or me XD But how you come out with the 18MP and 5MP thing? LolXD Articles?

for me this is the best phone i have ever seen..but i'm not so sure why the nokia shareholders doesnt think that way..nokia shares plunge to 16%?? why ar??
L820 and L920 lack the "wow" element><
QUOTE(Andrew Lim @ Sep 6 2012, 02:51 PM)
Because...
1) WP8's complete features are still a mystery. 2) No release date for this phone. So for now is vapourware. 3) Motorola released some interesting Droid phones on the same day. 4) Next week is iPhone 5 announced. And everytime it's announced it's available within 2 weeks. 5) Pureview brand but still only 8MP compared to 808's 41MP. 6) Downgraded the polycarbonate chassis to glossy plastic from matte plastic. 7) Doesn't seem that much better than the Samsung ATIV. 8) They posted fake Pureview trailer to con people.
Awww.... I thought they are using polycarbonate? they are not? The polycarbonate on L800 just looks so smooth and nice... Why glossy?!

From the specs given in gsmarena, the 920 supports USB on-the-go. So even though the 920 doesn't have a Micro-SD slot, in theory, you can connect a USB drive to it to copy files in and out.
Which is better? A usb drive or a micro-sd card? For me, handling a micro-sd card is messy because it could easily get lost, so I much prefer using a usb drive.
So, L920 no microSD? I thought it has... Anyway, I'm ok with both.... USB OTG does not come in the box?
QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Sep 7 2012, 06:18 PM)
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
Why they take away the rich recording.... Haiz... the rich recording is really amazing... it sounds like it is playing from a dvd ><
Added on September 9, 2012, 10:08 pmI think that L920 and L820 are just extensions from L800 and L900 as suggested by the phone name... I wonder when will L1000 be released... Really don't hope that it is announced few months after the both phones on sales.... Then the history of L900 will repeat ><

Nokia Lumia 920 come with 3 high amplitude mics which maybe consider come with Nokia Rich Recording Technology the problem is not from Nokia but Microsoft
Hopefully the audio will be great as well >< Ya... but the name of the 2 devices keep reminding me that it is just a little extension from previous device... Just like IPhone 4S ><

haha we r very slow developing country ma...what 2 do
It's funny to note that many WP7 or would be WP8 users in here seemingly compare their current or future WP device to Samsung or Apple frequently in their post. Whereas in Apple threads, Apple fans hardly mentions Nokia or WP at all. In that sense, it seems in here, people need to justify why WP is, can and will be better than Android or iOS. Why is that? Because both are considered benchmarks ... that's the sole reason why comparisons are made.
Agree^^ Hopefully Nokia can become the benchmark one day
Fake contest, Fake camera ads, Fail presentations, bashing other phone brands to advertise, how is that not a fail marketing? And how did the word "fail marketing" made you think I'm comparing with iphone?
nillkin hard case..got limited color choice. lucky me since the seller said got yellow color. you can find it in the mobile phone section of garage sales.
Where did you buy it? Does it give good protection and how much is it? Thank you.
^ as I said, can go and find it in mobile phone section of garage sale. type in nillkin in search box and look for ping23 seller. RM35 inc. SP!. yes it gives good protection on the sides should u drop it (dropped mine just now while installing the SP ).
