After playing 1 whole day of this phone,
I like... 1. Metro is so cool and smooth ! 2. IE10 is better than my expectation 3. Nokia Drive offline gps is freeeeee, no nid to buy those expensive gps software ! 4. All the games is in the GAMES section, so ur applist wont too long. 5. Photobeamer is a cool app ! 6. Very nice outlook, despite its entry level phone. 7. Build quality is good. Dont look like cheap phone. BUT... 1. i hate my contact are messing up. Even u filter up fb/skype, ur hotmail still have tons of un-number contact (from ur old msn). its frustrated. The only way(from wat i search from internet) is open another LIVE ID, and sign in with that new ID, so only SIM contact is inside. But then i have to redo all the things i done today. 2. FB app not user friendly. 3. No Instagram ! 4. Im not a technology idiot but i cant figure out how to set a playlist from music on sd card. Both native music app and 酷我. 5. Games amount are terribly low. Worse than i expected. Kinda similar like symbian game to me. 6. Whatsapp/Line push notification always doesnt work. Line doesnt have TIMELINE in the app. Tango is not in the market. And nobody on skype, so basically u cant internet call anyone. -.- 7. PPS or any apps, when u want to DL media >100mb, u have to connect to charger, no matter how full ur battery is. Kinda ridiculous right ? 8. My unit have multi touch issue as well. Even 2 point is not stable when not charging. 9. Connectivity shortcut doesnt include GPS on off button. So u have to go deep in the menu to enable it when u nid it. troublesome. 10. Cant NFC with Samsung Note 2. Just sending picture also fail. Sometimes show "The other party cant receiving large file" and sometimes show a empty store url. Android's prob with WP ? or lumia 620's prob ? 11. phone slip from my hand twice. my ex-phone also matte finish but dont have this prob. 12. Cant group app/contact on homescreen. I have more than 10 always call number and contact are messed up, if all pin to start then very messy, if not then hard to find...zzz.... 13. handsfree dont have any button ? how to answer call ? touch the screen? .........zzzzzzzzzzz......................... Overall, i like this phone, but i wont recommend other ppl to buy window phone, for now. The games and app is really far far behind ios and android and social app like Line, whatsapp is not functioning well... This post has been edited by Ah hao: Feb 20 2013, 12:56 AM |

QUOTE(dgboy @ Feb 20 2013, 12:39 AM) Nokia wins with a great piece of hardware. Microsoft is still on trial with an unfinished os in need of many improvements. auto hide of battery, signal, WiFi, Bluetooth iconsReally annoying things include: cannot off the auto rotate cannot save, edit or delete sim contacts cannot share a file via Bluetooth without switching Bluetooth on before going to the file on-screen menu button very poor design choice, fouls the screen content dunno how to exit music player - hit the volume control shows last song paused auto hide of battery, signal, WiFi, Bluetooth icons clock hidden when using browser Things that impressed me include : solid, compact and good quality build great display good touch sensitivity very loud - useful for alarm can take screenshot even of the lock screen Nokia maps GPS very fast one smooth and stable with slowness hidden by screen activity to me this is good, just a swipe on top they will show again. just don like the battery dont have % indicator... great display i agree this one, my last phone is huawei x5, 480x800 too, but this screen looks definitely better |

QUOTE(happy_berry @ Feb 21 2013, 06:21 PM) How bout you connect your phone to a computer, open the sd/phone file and organise the songs you want in your playlist to be in a folder (and other songs separate folders). Then try "save as playlist" one of the songs in the folder and I THINK the result will be all the songs in that specific folder, becomes your official playlist in the phone. i understand wat u mean, will try next time see if it works ,thanks ! Ya get me, brah? This post has been edited by Ah hao: Feb 21 2013, 08:21 PM |

Live with it. 2. Send to Nokia Care and face endless misery. My phone is with them for more than a month now. Still no ETA. Also, I have the multiple clock flash, yes I had it too. LOL Workaround was restarting. It's annoying, but I could live with it. I couldn't live with the multi touch problem. I can't even pinch and zoom properly. |

QUOTE(dgboy @ Feb 21 2013, 08:31 PM) First week I was very tempted to sell mine. Now three weeks gone and I still got it. The phone is quite jeckyll and hide. Plenty of good but some seriously irritating things too. Luckily the bad one are all software issues and hopefully future updates will solved it. ya, window phone really have some seriously irritating bugs. Music app beside the ridiculous playlist thing, the player cant shake to next song and no button on the handsfree. So even when u wear the handsfree, u have to take out the phone to answer call, or as simple as skip song. So troublesome when driving. And the alarm/notification/ringtone wont stop when u click any physical button. u hv to take out the phone again. (i think ios and android both can do this) |

QUOTE(more2teayap @ Feb 21 2013, 09:13 PM) agree, ios default alarm sound depends on your ringing tone, if your ringing tone is low then your alarm will be low too. But WP if u on vibrate only when gaming, later ur call wont sound right ? and if u listen to the music on like 5/30, later ur ringtone volume also 5/30 only right ? This is another ridiculous WP setting to me |

QUOTE(ultimate93 @ Feb 22 2013, 01:27 AM) Really, WP still a not perfect OS, or i should say no perfect OS in this world? My suggestion : switch on flight mode, so phone is on also no prob, wont ring or watsoever.Things that amazed me & my frends ~ GPS very very very fast ~ A perfect screen( for me ) ~ Smooth OS Things that annoyed me ~ Always switch on while charging althought I had switched off ( who can solve this ??) QUOTE(dgboy @ Feb 22 2013, 07:02 AM) I don't need perfection, yet I expect basic convenience to use out of the box. Yes, easy connect is a must We need to install app like Easy Connect or Toggle to easily on/off WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. But anyone know how to pin "location" (gps satelite on off) on start ? Any apps for that ? |

QUOTE(imahappyklown @ Feb 22 2013, 10:57 AM) Honestly,like I said,this would be my first smartphone. So, I haven't really been exposed to apps and such thus I can't really put a benchmark on what to expect. The nearest thing to a smartphone experience that I had was on the Ipad. Even that I use for only surfing, youtube, scheduling appointments and nothing else. Then i guess this phone will suits u well Heh,I'm more of the old-school type. Very hard for me to comprehend paying a lot for a phone when all I really want is just calling and SMS'ing. Hahaha, I even started my search looking for smartphones with buttons. But times are changing, thats why I'm making this experimental leap. Oh,one more question though. Is the OS newbie friendly? Thanks brahs Apps variety is not everyones need, but basic apps is there, so nothing to worry about. With this price u only can get a laggy android phone,since u dont need tons of apps, 620 is perfect for u. 620 is perfect for a outdoor person, under bright sunlight the screen still clear like indoor, first time i see a phone can performance like this. |

QUOTE(godhpf @ Feb 22 2013, 04:46 PM) for those having multi touch problem, can you guys plug in one end of the charging cable to the phone and hold the other end with your fingers? Yeah u are right, as long as the charger port is plug in cable, multi touch works.It means you're not charging the phone. Is the multi touch working? Some has reported that the multi touch works if you do that. If more people confirms this, then it can be concluded that the hardware is faulty and this is not something that a software update could fix. EDIT: This appears to be a widespread problem. Some people has reported that it happens on every single 620 that he can lay his hands on. Anyone can test for me the Smart Shoot function ? My smart shoot cant work. |
