Thanks a lot #Rei7 and #Andrew Lim..... Very well explanation...
1. Referred to searching, can 8.1 search phone things like contact and also searching web... What I'm trying to say whether it has universal search? Even word in sms? Like blackberry. 2. How bout features in famous app like whatsapp, facebook, instagram, waze etc? Do 8.1 act like android? 3. For maps... Android have google maps and also can act as gps navigator. How bout 8.1? 4. Contact/phonebook, can 8.1 retrieve contact from android and vice versa? Or how to transfer it? 5. Memory/ram, my android phone hv 2gb of ram and lately frequent hang. How bout 8.1 (lumia 930) can perform well since it also hv 2gb of ram? 6. Can 8.1 sync contact between phone and outlook.com account? android can sync contact between phone And gmail account. Thats all for now, hope sifus out there can enlightenment me. Tqvm |

QUOTE(Rei7 @ Aug 3 2014, 12:31 AM) 1. Not sure about words in sms. Thanks for the explanation bro.... Still need to dig before i decide to jump ship2. Features are there for famous apps but some are behind in updates like Instagram which is still in beta. Why should WP needs to act like Android? 3. There is Nokia Maps which is now called Here Maps, which is just as good and even better got offline mode. 4. Transfer My Data(built in app) can do that via Bluetooth as far as I know. That is how I do it on iOS, should work the same with Android. 5. It's not the same. 2gb or less than 1gb also WP8 is very smooth and responsive. It's not the same like Android which is power hungry. WP can do just the same with less ram. It's the same like iPhone which is not power hungry. Well optimized OS is the key for good performance, not more ram means better. 6. Yes it syncs with outlook/hotmail account using the internet. The same like Android.  |

QUOTE(Rei7 @ Aug 3 2014, 11:32 AM) Do it because i've seen some people who simply just don't like it just because it's not Android or iOS. At the first i not very like it coz it doesnt hv notification center for quickly access to incoming feed like whasapp, sms etc. but when 8.1 came out seem 90% of my problem solved In less than a week, they just sold it. It is just a few people though, most stick with it pretty well. Just give Windows Phone a chance and I think you'll love it.  |
