1. Notifications
2. Arranging files and folder. Can just plugin usb cable and transfer files right away or is there a client for that?i

Im considering L1020 because of the xenon flash and I really  do like the Tiles home screen.

1. Notifications is done using live tiles but this is hit and miss since not all apps do it properly. Then there's the infamous delayed notifications. Notification center is rumoured to be in the work (and Microsoft responded in their request website, which usually means it's coming). They are probably trying to include it in WP 8.1 due early next year. Screenshot leak of WP 8.1 also suggests they're toying with ways to do notification center.

2. There's no file manager in-phone but you can manage your files directly on PC without any software.

add to that;
Lumia 1020 will have data sense along with glance. next year we should have GDR3, with notification... then all will be sweeten up smile.gif

yes, am using windows 7 desktop and wind 8 tab...
transferring file is plug in drag and drop.

windows 7/8 will auto detect your Lumia model thumbup.gif not too sure about xp.

it is getting more and more stable by days. Updates being push pretty significantly lately. it is getting more mature.

After a day using Windows Phone, I am feeling mixed.

How can those simple yet crucial things are missing in it, like a seek bar.

But... Lumia 1020 kind of shares the same spec with S2, only 2GB rams. laugh.gif

back to topic, recently whenever I go, I see quite a numbers of colourful phones when people are holding up to shoot photos. Believe me, these people aren't using Lumia phones (some are, I saw a lot of 720 & 920), they are using Asha phones. laugh.gif

spec are same, but OS are different.

My S2 updated to Android 4.1.2, and the battery life is not good at all after the update. It also overheat very fast if I use wifi/data/GPS.

should give wp8 more time, it's growing, more official apps coming, more features come in future updates
as for nokia lumia, they are doing great hardware
but i think nokia still need to do some good marketing, their ads are good, but need to widespread
we see samsung ads everywhere

totally agreed

big marketing is expensive though

Samsung have deep pockets, whereas Nokia have empty ones

hopefully the Microsoft buyout will help, though i'm not over-confident

Microsoft seems to prefer bashing Google and Apple than promoting a positive message about their own products

well, Android is power hungry thus need a lot of memory and processing power. Still lag regardless :haha:

lumia..... 2gb of ram is way more than enough. Silky smooth even with 512mb

When you load too many apps on Android, chances that you will get a Lagdroid. If it's well customized and optimized, it could be the best phone for you, which is suitable for tinkerers.

But being a tinkerer will constantly have to wait for ROM updates and trying out other customized ROMs, it's a never ending loop. Well, at least for heavy tinkerers, casual users won't bother. laugh.gif

WP8 has a lot to catchup but at the moment, the things are layout nicely and everything worked for me. laugh.gif

I think most likely it is the 'in' thing to bash on WP8 and people just follow the flock. I doubt these bashers even use WP8. It's all hear say hear say. I still remember the days where people bash Samsung phones as being cheap and worthless and if you ask them today, Samsung is the king.
