What's the issue with flagships anyway? For me, whenever I buy something, I only look for what I need. I don't have to buy the best, most expensive model because I don't have the need to show off that I have the best model.

Those who are angry that Nokia releases top models too quickly, surely have some kind of ego issues coupled with financial issues.

Just buy what you're comfortable with and use the phone for 2-3 years. After that change again.  biggrin.gif

Yes, that's what I always do. I buy something that I am comfortable with and use it for a couple of years. That's why I bought the Lumia 620. After all, I can still use my point-and-shoot camera if I need to take better photos.

I tend to avoid buying flagships because I also know that this year's flagship may be a just a cheap normal phone in a year or two.

So no point chasing flagships. Just be patient and everything would drop in price, because that has always been the case for all technological products. Those who always chase flagships would always become disappointed very fast because the rate of new releases are becoming more frequent due to fierce competition.

On the hand, I think the Lumia 1020 is a great phone and I hope that in one or two years time, I can get a new phone just like that, for half its current price.

even you buy android make sure its minimum quad core and 2GB ram if not it will lag like hell. Must run jelly bean

On a samsung note 2 they plenty of feature to play with non stop. Note 2 is about 7months old already these the features it have. The brand new Nokia Lumia 1020 at 2013 July still do not have 70% of its features and still not real time multi tasking.



I like nokia but honestly they are already leaving out di.

One main reason why Android lags is because of its true multitasking, unlike Windows Phones and Iphones, which doesn't have it.

That is why you require lots of RAM and many cores in Android to run smoothly. Because of that you more or less need to buy top end Android smartphones to avoid lag, whereas the cheapest 512MB Windows Phones doesn't have that problem.

yea i agree what you said but at the moment you have no choice to choose using windows phone even you have alot ram like 1020 2GB u still do not have real time multitasking.

No offense to your professional isnt lumia 1020 same price or more expensive than android high ends phone but you still have tons of limitation.

Notice how bias are you when do comparison just because you never own multiple OS before. In reality learn to have flexible every OS have their pros and cons it depend which you prefer.

Why are you comparing low end vs high end? Why you didnt didnt you say paying high price for low spec? If you wanna debate

Lumia 1020 low end? or high end?

Lumia 1020 is same price as a high end android

Lumia updates slower than high end android phone for the same price

Lumia limitation more than any android combined

Apps limitation plenty. Android have more apps than windows phone

Even getting outdated is faster than any iOS phones or android.
Do you know what are the benefits of real time multitasking? Learn do your research.

I can list them down for you can you?

Hope that clarify your confusion. I know more things about windows phone than you know about it.

I too own an Android phone, but I don't like its UI. Also because I don't go around chasing flagships, my low end Android annoying lag doesn't help.

I chose to use a Windows Phone because of 3 main reasons - 1. It's people centric UI, 2. Offline GPS worldwide map 3. Microsoft Office.

Windows Phone 8 only came out at the end of Oct, 2012. Microsoft's policy on Windows Phone 8 OS upgrade is the same with Apple's, that is, it upgrades for all phones, unlike Android, where getting an OS upgrade is a matter of luck. That's why it takes a longer time for Microsoft to come out with upgrades, because it tests all phones, and it doesn't want to deal with the problem of fragmentation.

Preemptive multitasking is of course great, but it drains your battery faster and unless we have better hardware, such as the new Intel Silvermont smartphone SOC taking over from the ARM-based SOCs.
