Hey guys.. just wanted to start this topic about the upcoming Nokia Lumia Windows 8 phone. Well I like Nokia Lumia's Slick display.  but hesitated to buy Nokia Lumia 800 cause I heard bad rumours about it 
Wanted to hear all your opinions about the phone before I consider buying it. My budget is around 1k. But if you can, recommend me some competitors that are also around that range.

P.S This is my first thread so go easy on me  XD

bad rumors, what bad rumors?

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 smile.gif

Not buying it because I'm waiting for Windows 8  rclxm9.gif ^^

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 laugh.gif

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.

Yeah also waiting for windows 8. Heard it has Skype integrated and might have better camera XD

About the battery life. And since wp 8 is coming out around November I rather wait till after SPM tongue.gif. Since its gonna be awesome  rclxms.gif
Then I also heard Nokia lumia is faster than most of the androids considering Nokia is only single core XD.

Windows 8? Skype integrated? Are you refering to WP8? sweat.gif
Not just Lumia phones but the entire Windows Phones are smooth and fluid except those with poor memory cards. (I didn't say is faster than most androids, so droid fags don't butthurt kay?)

Some super crappy phone. tongue.gif not rich bro haha.

Doesn't matter as long as the phone works for you, if you truly has maximised the capabilities of the phone and yet feel not enough for their use then by all means, go get a new phone.

lastly, bishes lurve Apples whistling.gif

from a designer's standpoint of view, these images are rendered obviously, not actual product shots and if you look at 820's back camera, it was obviously stamped on it with jagged edges but the camera really reminds me of HD7's kickstand and why curved edges, why?!

Nokia's camera phone could affect my next purchase on WP8.

specs are promising, but any estimate on pricing? these new wp8 phones are meant to save nokia, so they really should be careful with the pricing.

I just hope they (Nokia Malaysia) won't do anything like what happened to Lumia 800.

seems like the rendered photo is legit now.

Is that the 920 or 820? They look different compared to the rendered

And what happened to Lumia 800?

820 I believe, looked the same, 2nd picture.

Lumia 800 was RM1299 then when shortly after Lumia 900 launched in Malaysia, the price dropped to RM999/969, pretty sad for those early birds.

Nokia's new flagship Windows Phone 8 device has been leaked today, revealed as the Lumia 920. Posted to Twitter by @evleaks, the Lumia 920 appears to include a PureView camera that the company has been hinting at in recent weeks. Codenamed the Phi, Nokia's Lumia 920 is said to include a 4.5-inch display and will likely be available in a number of colors judging by the leaked image.


Pureview definitely. rclxms.gif

thanks so for it to result such amazing quality the sensor must be huge. If its small. GG di.

Most probably i will go for iphone 5 this year and retire for any new phones,.

Noise? That much different for that size of sensor? So nice. icon_idea.gif

Well, we still need to wait for the official announcement, seems like WP8 (leaked SDK), doesn't have any 'wow' thing to celebrate about. I'm more interested in the WP8 camera function together with the PureView, things about the functionality and configuration. Don't want to over hype, it will lead to disappointment eventually.

First, if this picture ever gets printed out on a large canvas with some minor touch up, it will definitely be a pretty decent picture.

You can't hype anything yet, just rumors only, still have to wait.

Oi people, dont hype lah, overhype only lead to disappointment. #truestory.

what aspire said is pretty true though. I myself prefer the iPhone camera over the others because the colours and details produced is very decent unlike any other phones camera out there.

Been using the Lumia camera, details are great except the notable noises which is pretty sad IMO. Setting takes time to make it right if you're one of those people who fancy the details and colors.

Average consumers wouldn't bother by these, filters all the way whistling.gif

If you ask Canon or Nikon to come out with a camera phone, certainly they will win in camera but probably not on the phones part.
