Since there quite a number of replies, I decided to change the topic a little bit. What is your opinion about Windows phone? Will Windows phone be laggy after some time? Will you recommend us to buy a Windows-based phone?

lags depend on phone mood for my case. sometimes its smooth, sometimes it takes forever to go back to home screen frm ONE open app... crashes, camera lag, etc.
soft resets sometimes do the trick, sometimes dont..
hard reset solves the prob, but temp only, will lag again after few months... TT feel like changing other devices now

No. Even when storage has around ~200mb left, still running smoothly.

Soft reset clears up the temp/cached files, mostly does the trick of lags (if there is any).

IOS and WINDOW phone are both quite stable in terms of software due to no third party app allowed....... lack hanging.

It will not get lag. Same performance

Apps switching is not really smooth (too much resuming). Maybe due to 512MB of RAM.

If it still use the same WP8 version, you can expect same operating system performance from the day you first bought it. When you already update to the next version, let say WP8 to WP 8.1 expect few lags since the new version cater to more powerful hardware.

However, the amount of live tiles, photo and video quantity in photo app, message in message threads or anything that always piles over time will contribute to slower app operation in long run. The good news is, unlike android on the same hardware specs WP doesn't suffer as bad as them.


source : long time experience with Lumia 800 and 920.

In my experience, it won't lag, but sometimes the screen doesn't respond to touch and I need to press the lock button to make it work again.
