interchangeable.. but still have to wait for accessories.. at the moment,since its still new, no one selling the back cover. what are your worries about this phone?

i wonder if the multitouch issue (discussed a while back) is widespread? also how about the battery? any issues with the nfc?

I have no issue on multitouch, so i believe it only affect a certain devices.
Update on battery usage, it has been 23 hours since last charge and still have 40% left~ I think the battery is getting better~ XD To be fair, today I have been using it at minimal usage, whatsapp, facebook, twitter, instagram and about 45 minutes of calling. Getting satisfy with the battery~

Just bought this device from satu gadget (with rebate) this afternoon. Managed to get yellow unit blush.gif
total damage about RM649 (RM599 rebate price + RM30 Tunetalk sim + RM20 matte screen protector (got some freebies from the shop oso rclxms.gif ) biggrin.gif. So far satisfied with the phone.... after using it for a while..here are some of my thoughts about the phone blush.gif

PROS

- Fast, very responsive phone, even at times when changing to one app to another in rapid succession the phone does it quickly. almost no lag (MS hide it very cleverly, replace it with loading screen)

- easy to change cover, just push the camera lens can take it off already, in the future when other covers come out for sale guarantee sell like hotcakes lol. however the headphone jack is embedded with the cover so maybe the cover will cost abit i guess.

-very loud speaker, every call i take/make i can hear the other person very clearly, speakerphone very clear rclxms.gif

-got some nice features like wifi sharing, NFC (havent tried this function yet)

-built in nokia apps very useful (eg nokia drive, but must DL map 1st) free turn by turn offline gps navigation

-gorgeous display~

-ok battery life (have yet to test it thoroughly, but by the looks ofit it can last for some time)

-latest windows phone 8

CONS

- Not enough apps/games, popular apps like instagram, waze, temple run, subway surfers etc are missing from the store, wonder if it'll improve in time

- apps is region restricted (Malaysia store lack quality apps ) sad.gif

- phone got hot when doing heavy task (isnt all smartphone like this?)

- cannot make folder to organize apps <--win phone 8 prob

- cannot universal search using the search button <--also win phone 8 prob, if u dont have data plan this button will be useless unless u want to scan some barcode or something

enough complaining~ should u buy it? YES~! nice price and performance for an entry level phone~ glad to be part of 620's family. ~ whistling.gif

I order 2 sets of yellow 620, using the skmm rebate thingy, he offered me same price as yours per set including postage.

Not too sure what freebies i will get though.

i think that's the standard freebies from satu gadget with rebate, coz 2 weeks ago i bought the item there with rebate they also give free sleeve, usb car charger and microsd card reader blush.gif
