Thanks for pointing out, chaukeng.
Unfortunately, the WTS is closed. It had been sold. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3173791

Oh. Interesting. Where you manage to get the Yellow color casing? eBay?

Yup, agreed. The camera is the slowest. I am even disappointed that Lumia 1020 doesn't officially get Living Images. It was allowed for a short while under the Developer Preview. The Living Images was working fine with my Lumia 1020. No crash or anything, and I don't understand why they pull it from 1020 due to "performance" reason.

One of my friend recently got Z3 and he was excited to see me because I own 41MP Camera. He want to do a comparison. Z3 which just release not long ago, surprisingly still not able to beat Lumia 1020 - a 2 years old phone and already consider underpowered when it was first release. Before this, I did realize that I wouldn't find any other phone that I would fell in love again. And my friend's Z3 just reaffirmed that. Therefore, I am not planning to get the coming Lumia Flagship 940/950 or whatever it is called. I am willing to wait until 2016 or even early 2017 for 1020 successor.
Counting... Wow, I have 50-60 Live Tiles.
Not all are frequently used. I think the number of frequent Live Tiles I used daily is like about 10 only.

I am waiting for Windows 10 Mobile to officially release. Once that happen, I will keep my Live Tiles to the minimal. I kinda lazy to do now, and later a few months, sorting out again.

LOL...me to about the same number...I was wondering if these LiveTiles does eat up some memory

I think in Technical view, yes. It would consume memories. But in my everyday opinion, I don't really see any much differences especially for a Lumia 1020 user, who wish to use less Live Tiles to divert the free memory elsewhere. Because it is already overall slow. Unless like current Lumia lineup which uses Quad Core processor, then that I see clear differences.

Nevertheless, I will like to hear from you after you try.
Do keep us inform. biggrin.gif

No luck. The cover was open for sales for quite some times. Anyway i got my cover from Taobao for around RM70+ including shipping and a few tools for diy purposes. Not sure if it is original as stated but the quality is good and everything just works and fits perfectly.

For some weird reasons, Sony phones in general have below par camera. Few years back when they first launched the Xperia X10 (still under sony ericsson that time), they boost about the use of a certain xmor R sensor for their camera but it in the end the picture quality turns out quite bad. Quite surprised until now its still like that.

Though, not really optimistic about a Lumia 1020 successor. It seems like the sales figures for L1020 is not convincing enough for Microsoft to redesign the camera from the ground up. (Nokia did that from PV808 to L1020).
The camera specs is overkill for mojority of the everyday user.

I did try the Taobao sales channel before and there were plenty of choices. They all look the same but priced not the same. I am not sure which one has a near-quality as Original. Hence, I gave up to purchase one at Taobao. Nonetheless, thanks for sharing - I think I may return to Taobao to have a look again.

There is major design feature that I dislike about Nokia Genuine Casing for Lumia 1020 including the Camera Grip. Unlike my Nilkin Casing/Shell, the Camera section isn't being all except the Shutter part. Sooner, there will plenty of scratch and dent because that Point will hit the surface first, before any part of the phone.

Yup, I agree with your last statement about Lumia 1020 successor but I am very hopeful and optimistic. tongue.gif Haha. I do understand the reality though


Yup, I agreed to your last statement about Lumia 1020's Successor. But I am optimistic. Lol. Again, I do understand the reality.

Wondering if anybody has installed win10 mobile TP on their 1020. I'm running slow build, and i think the stable build is only up Update 2 (settings now are split according to categories). If anybody has gone for fast insider, can tell me 2 things:

1. How stable is the OS? How often crash/unresponsive, etc

2. Battery drain. Is it worse than 8.1?

Thanks!

So far it's good. Liking the new interface.

Great to know that.

I am going to pass. I don't feel like breaking my routine habit. I just going to hold out for a completed Windows Mobile 10 or whatever it is called.

However, I am tempted to try on so I could use Cortana's Voice-to-Words in Whatsapp and every others App. This work, right?

Removing the Live Tiles, did not really help much.

At times, loading whatsapp is really slow, worse if I was having 2 apps (like skype/browser) opened at the same time.
hmmm
