I don't understand the logic of micro-sd being 'messy'. The unit is small, and can fit nicely inside the phone micro sd slot. You don't have to worry about running out of space because you can pick the size of micro-sd to your liking.

For phones depended on USB OTG to store extra data, you have to carry a flash drive and the cable itself all the time. 

Extra accessories , thus extra messy.

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.

as for my understanding, not much ppl will take out thier micro sd for data exchange. the micro sd main usage (at least for me) when the fon was critically damaged. i still can retain my own pic & music by taking out the micro sd & transfer to other fon. yes u may say y not using cloud system? i got full 20gb of data & i lazy to upload + i dont trust cloud system + i dowan using my own data quota when i wan to listen my own music when i was abroad.

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.

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.

should be below two Ks. (btw im a cheapo and i am no longer to going to touch any phone more than 1K) especially when a FULL HD 32" japanese brand LCDs are selling below 1K

i still prefer micro sd just keep in the phone so that it will never get lost
but still usb otg support is a huge improvement for wp

Silly comparison.

Like this I might as well say it does not make sense that a a kilo of 24 karat gold cost more than a car.

And TVs can also be mass produced, more so than smart phones. If you think gold is not a proper comparison, then there are other examples.

See the price there? Many times more expensive for HDTV, yet it is nothing more than a camera. So how do you value the price of a product?
And how much do you think phone nowadays cost more than 10 years ago? How much for 4GB RAM over 10 years ago? What about 1TB HDD over 10 years ago?

If you want to play cost & time factor, please take a look at this:

its expensive because consumers are willing to pay it. the same device can cost 2.5K at launch and after 12months - cost 1K. I cant see how LC/Plasma TV price will continue to go down. The price is at same as the tube TV at the time the market was flooded with LCD/Plasma.

At the end of the day - i want value for the device that I buy. Lumia 610 is now selling at RM650 nokia warranty. AP warranty is around RM500. I dont see how huge price difference next year at this time. Thats my argument when i suggest people to buy phone. I also check what people do with their phone! There is just toooo much shit on high end expensive phones that people NEVER NEED or NEVER USE.

the problem with iphone is I would rather find out that i brain cancer and have 1y to live than to be associated with a product bought by people who queue "for days" just to get their hands on the product and when they got it, they had this sense of proudness that make me want to vomit!!

haha typical nokia when the devices are out became outdated dy

Yeap just imagine Honda accord call vtec then they come out another version call Honda accord 2012 edition they remove the vtec then put a abs example but you paying the same price the design also look like old version

Haha that was my decision until the most disappointing announcement. Screen go bigger side ways hahahahna

4 inch Side way Walau eh everything look taller not enlarge Hahahahahahh

I need this phone for my bday. C'mon Nokia do the right thing, release it in October.
