QUOTE(capsulr @ May 31 2014, 11:02 AM) This phone has caused me pain and suffering since its announcement... no micro sd, no glance, its a huge downgrade from all the other phones in the market. 32 GB.... my songs already take up half of that, and there is barely enough space for 1080p movies to enjoy on that full hd screen, 20 MP camera cant even store enough pictures or videos on that storage space.I really love it, but I feel like I will be an idiot for buying it, especially with all the cheaper android phones out there now. What piss me off more is looking at the app store, all the unofficial apps there taking over is just an ugly sight - developers have no intention to make apps for windows phone.As a japanese fan, it is even worst as they dont even have nokia in their country, all the cool japanese games will never come over to windows phone. Google is monopolizing everything, even twitch tv will be bought soon, even lesser apps unfortunately, my love for it is not enough to cover up for its stupid flaws, to be called a FLAGSHIP phone is a huge disgrace. Nokia, why have you cause so much pain and suffering to me!? espcially if it was intentional by that damn stephen elop, dim gaiiiiii very true

i also have a feeling that the next flagship lumia is coming quite soon.. but if i want to get the lumia 930 before that, i'd wait for the price to drop a bit.

Recently tested the 930. Build quality really top notch. Hopefully metal material will be assimilated in the future mid to high end models.

QUOTE(xSean @ Dec 8 2014, 01:07 PM) the price of 930 still maintain at rm1699...tot it gonna drop, so can grab at cheaper price... 1gadget is selling rm1659.. But i agree.. The 930 is still expensive given the specs are 1 year old already. QUOTE(hooi_jd @ Dec 9 2014, 10:49 PM) so far i just could blame its 5 inch size is too big to fit my palm. I droped it 5x but still charm... Other than that, it is perfect. QUOTE(mrl @ Dec 10 2014, 08:52 AM) Had to agree... 5" is kind of big... somewhere in Nexus4 screen was perfect for me. But Lumia525 size would be a lot more difficult for me to handle as well. I dropped my previous Lumia 525 a lot more compared to this Lumia 930. For me, the size is perfect. Maybe the reason u guys dropped it many times is bc it's too heavy? Haha.

Guys, any issue about the 930 that i should be aware of? I've been through this thread before and I recall something about purple screen or something if I not mistaken. Any other? Bc I found a second hand 930, need to check the phone. Thanks.

QUOTE(mrl @ Dec 11 2014, 01:00 PM) Other than the driving mode bug, everything else is good with me... The screen might change hue whenever it tries to change the brightness, but not a big deal for me... What is this driving mode bug that u speaking of? The screen bug is sotfware or hardware related?

QUOTE(mrl @ Dec 11 2014, 03:49 PM) Basically a mode that you can set to ignore calls and sms whenever you drive. I set it to enable when my bluetooth radio connects, but the phone didn't disable it when it disconnects causing all sorts of notification, alarms and reminder problems... screen bug, I think it's software. If it's hardware it should be permanently hued.... I see. So, what's the fix for the driving mode issue? Edit: i just read ur work around from the last page.

So I've got my hands on the 930.. Gosh it feels so nostalgic coming back to wp after more than a year away. Anyway, can anyone suggest me the best tempered glass or screen protector for my green-green? Thanks.

Btw, I just realized that the top left of the screen doesn't fit perfectly like the other corners. And it's press able. I went thru old post, one member also have similar issue albeit his is on the top right. Thinking about sending it to SC soon. :/

QUOTE(chaukeng @ Dec 15 2014, 12:30 AM) Very nice price. Looking for your review in terms of battery performance. Btw, not sure if you can get a decent glass screen protector since the screen is curve on the side, similar to most lumia devices.  I should have ask for rm930 instead. Haha. I found one tempered glass for the 930 in lelong.. The original owner already applied SP on this phone but it looks terrible bc the SP is clearly not for the 930.. Can see its cut marks.  I can't say much about its battery bc I've only used it for a while.. But if I to compare the 930 with my Moto G, in 8 hours of my sleep, the Moto G drops 3-10% while the 930 drops around 1-3%. But if u do web browsing or playing with the camera, it'll drain just as fast as other phones, I think.

QUOTE(zzzhhhzzz @ Dec 16 2014, 10:56 PM) guys just got my 930 today... i notice that the bottom of the back cover is not really well fitted. you can actually press on it and it clicks a bit when you press... anyone having this issue ? Hey fellow new owner. The back cover on mine doesn't have this problem. The cover is fitted perfectly. My only issue is with the screen. QUOTE(zzzhhhzzz @ Dec 17 2014, 08:33 AM) and do you all still have the purple tint issue ? The previous owner told me he never experienced this issue on the 930 so, that's nice.

QUOTE(zzzhhhzzz @ Dec 17 2014, 10:23 AM) hmm im having the same issue on the right top as well..but havent check how it interfere with the light sensor... what do you mean by light sensor malfunction ? you manage you claim warranty from nokia ? Well, mine is on the top left of the screen. I didn't notice any effect from that. Light sensor, iinm is the sensor that manages the brightness of the screen when u set it on auto. I'm sending it to SC this week. Hopefully they can do something about it. Really didn't expect this kind of built issue from Nokia.

QUOTE(zzzhhhzzz @ Dec 18 2014, 08:06 AM) hi do update us on your experience with the SC. Might want to send mine to them too  thx Hey bro Z.. I sent mine to the SC today, showed the staff my problem. She said it can be fix by replacing the screen. (I thought they would just glue it or something. Haha). Anyway, all repairing must be done in their HQ. She didn't tell me when can I expect to get it back but I'll just be optimistic here. Hopefully can get it back next week if Santa grant my wish, also in time for Denim update. Haha. Oh and lastly, since it's still under warranty, there'll be no charges. Hopefully can count on her words lah. So i suggest u send urs too. Btw what color is ur 930?

QUOTE(-ahtiang- @ Dec 18 2014, 06:57 AM) I've been using the L930 extensively as my primary phone and the back cover fits tightly to the phone without any movement (I posted some photos on Page 13 in this forum and it stays the same till now on fittings) and no sign of purple hue/tint on the screen so far.. How about ur screen? I know the screen isn't flat with the metal frame. But i checked ur 930 pic on page 18, i saw ur top right side surfaced more than the left. I hope it's just my eyes or the pic angle.
