As long u r not watchinf p0rn at full volume on your phone, nothing to be embarrassed about...

I dropped once, naked, only 1 meter height so no issue. Screen surface landed first. Even though Nokia build is solid it gives me the creeps when i drop it because it is heavier than other others. When u drop it u get the feeling that it crashes harder on the ground than other phones lol.

it's 3 X 4MP (or 4.3MP, from what i heard) stacked sensors, only 12-13MP, even with oversampling. Since it is using stacked sensors instead of a single large sensor, i assume it cant take full resolution 12-13MP photos (and in some sites they mention 4MP in the specsheet instead of 12 or 13MP). No matter how you look at it, 4MP photos are too small to be of any good use especially if you want to work on the photos in a photoshop on a high res monitor (like, 2560X1600 monitor). 5MP is the bare minimum to me.

It's true pixels are not everything, but when a photo is too small the amount of potential to work on decreases. Large res photos, you can work on post-processing without making it look too fake or obvious. You have the extra pixels to play with. HTC trying to beat Nokia in cameras of phones is like telling me A Proton can outrun a Porsche. Size of sensor and optics is also important.

Here's something for you to compare. HTC is becoming Samsung, copying others...

Some sites did mention OIS but i dont think there is, because only a few websites mentioned it. Only ultrapixel i think.

Image output is indeed 4MP only, too small for me. On photoshop work done from phone cameras, i do that a lot. In fact i always tried to push my phone's cam abilities to the max. My cousin kinda surprised when he found out this image is taken with my Lumia 920 (without Portico update), because he thought the composition was pretty good, The photo was slightly post-processed. He thought it came from a standalone camera.

Was surprised actually, i thought many people love to criticize Windows Phone. I guess that's what you call Tsundere eh...

I read them a lot also, along with phonearena. A credible tech blog. But their comments section are filled with trolls, at least not as bad as gsmarena though. GSMarena is filled with trolls who cant even type proper English.

RT was a big no to me, especially when the apps is like only 15% of windows phone store. ==; I dont think i can even play my MKV-FLAC files with 10bit encoding on the tablet. Windows Media Player itself is notorious for not supporting even the most basic codecs.

I like Acer W510 more, RM 16XX get windows 8 full experience, but a bit underpowered. The design makes it look damn nice when placed together with my white Lumia 920. Im waiting to see what Nokia can offer this year before deciding on a windows tablet. Heard they wont reveal a tab in MWC - the speculation is that they delayed it because they wanna put in windows 8 into their tab instead of RT, which is a good thing.

I think the demands are a bit overwhelming when everyone demands this and that for windows phone and Microsoft cant meet the deadline, but i did notice that Microsoft and Nokia did take note on the demands of their customers. Wp7.8 update was the best example - bluetooth sharing feature is added to Nokia's Lumias, Nokia added in that feature, while other models like HTC, Samsung, didnt get bluetooth sharing. I do believe the next big update for WP8 will include notification center.

On apps, it's the problem with developers. Im kind of pissed that they are not making WP apps. Their reason: "No one uses it anyway". Oh, really? Fark U. The current FB app may not be as good as other OS's, but, at least, it doesnt crash often like android's and iOS's ones. I heard a lot of complaints about FB app crashing, it did get updates but when old bugs are solved new bugs appear.

Wah, i like that one! Im into anything RED, best would be metallic red

Ultrapixel also got noise mah, especially the last shot... To me the first 2, HTC ONE's cam overexposed it instead of capturing more light. 2nd comparison ONE is a bit sharper. Lumia's shots overall are slightly better to me. Peter Chou only talk c0ck all the time... last time e says want to beat Samsung, now talk shit about Nokia's PureView tech when their phone cam is still inferior. They maybe able to match the 920, but it wont beat 808PV, and next week ost likely got the new EOS summor. No idea the 920 used has the Portico update or not; Many countries dun have the update yet.

3rd set looked like it was shot on auto; night mode will yield even better colors. One's 3rd shot has a lot of noise in the dark sky area. Only 2nd set One is a bit better, but i think the Lumia used has no portico update judging form the slight softness. 1st set the One overexposed it already.

i used the 920's cam a lot, on auto, lights tend to shift yellow at night, and night mode the lights color will look like the one shot by the HTC One. So, i think both r on auto.

Im thinking of using the voucher to buy monster earphone WH-920 first, then sell it off at original price, at least i can get back my redemption in cash first. Wait wait wait in the end voucher expire also charger not in stock yet...

LOL, thats why im not sure; i dont use earphones, only full size headphones.

Last time ppl say 1st batch got problem, now also say 2nd batch got problem... i believe is all luck lah, you know lah, made in CHINA... Even other phones also have problem, not just Nokia. Mine is first batch, i got mine back in December, no problem. 2 months already, but there are others who bought it at the same period as me but has blinking screen and battery issue.
