I went to nokia store and molested the phone for about 20 mins.. but i did not buy..
What concerns me is i'm a heavy google user. Calenders, contacts, google drive, gmail etc.
Whatsapp and fb chats a lot..

Still reading up to prepare myself..

btw ..anyone know how to enable background on glance screen?

if money is no issue...

it never hurts having both android and WP.

anyway, HERE drive is way better than google drive.
unless you need waze which WP doesnt have

i'm also a heavy google users, activesync works fine so far via outlook account.
but if photography is not your primary use or priority, i think it is better to get an Android like the upcoming Nexus 5. your google apps experience will not be as good with WP (eg. missing Google Analytics app, etc)

get 1020 if you treasure hires photos for your library and wanted to tryout a new OS, fatigue with years of iOS/Android like me

I've used 2 nexus devices and a bit bored with them..
Now i'm struggling between 925 and 1020..

personally, i have zero desire for 925 because i dont like the odd Xperia-like hardware design and much less capable camera than 1020. i might as well get an Android or even 920 for the nicer design.

Bro...Google Drive is a cloud storage solution...not a turn-by-turn GPS app.

Attach Nokia Software Updater 4.1.0

tomorrow i will upload it to mediafire or mega and edit it at front page

lol

I am previously an iOS user and I was bored also with the same OS.
I was using iPhone 4 before upgrading to 920.
The announcement of iPhone 5 was super disappointing and I was like.. What phone should I get next....
Then I tested Android when the first Nexus 7 comes out, I don't really like it that much..sorry.
Ecosystem and all is good as iOS, but the lagginess and bloating in a long run is a big turn off for me.
Then I was like maybe Samsung S4 but damn.. Apple to Samsung? You got to be kidding me.
Still Android and yes lagginess even on Jellybean.. WP never came my mind until I know that 920 camera is awesome.
The smothness and no lag at all of the OS is great and apps was a concern for me, but all the essential apps is already there, all that I need except no instagram, so I just jump to WP. Quite satisfied and glad I made the jump.

Those who don't like Android and love iOS should make the jump, but those who love Android and hate iOS, i'm not so sure haha. Plus if Google services is that important to you might wanna check Microsoft offering they have substitute for each google service like Drive=Skydrive, Outlook=Gmail, Skype=Google Talk, Nokia or Bing Map=Google Map and others.

Whatsapp is already available in WP for a long time. As for FB chat, WP has intergrated FB chat which works together with SMS on WP. Chat are instant and you can set status online or offline. You can also check notifications, status update and check in in WP on Fb without downloading FB app. Just some of my opinions

a great jump from iOS to Android to WP

me? Symbian to WP. shortcut to heaven

My understanding, MIcrosoft needs to build CardDAV and CalDAV support into Windows Phone 8 by dec 31st? To enable support for Google Sync

Microsoft had make WP8 to support CardDav and CalDAV protocol on their latest GDR2 update.

So those former android owner that jump ship to WP should had no problem continue using G-mail.

Want to ask you all..

Have you experience any battery & heat issue problem?

Because I hear for quite sometime, there's heat & battery problem with other versions of Lumia (Lumia 920, 925, 800). What about this 1020?

battery so far so good with my unit.
about heating...when using the camera for >15min, the hump at the back u could feel some heat as the hump is made from aluminium, thus definitely u can feel it.
for internet surfing without video, after 10min the screen can feel a bit of heat, but no much

no need....theres fb basic app to direct upload pic or check in location or update status.....but with limited option...

for full fb experience can online direct using browser or fb app...

calendars intergrated into your outlook calendar+hotmail calendar+fb calendar once u synced all

contacts need to sync from gmail to hotmail...but all is similar...

google drive u can install 3rd party..work as good...but i use nokia drive mainly...good enough to work offline (and can search online when needed)

whatsapp was the most stable phone so far...no problem if kena spam lipan or tangga alot...


fb chats can integrated into messaging tab...
