one thing that i observed on microsoft camera apps

last time microsoft camera apps on lumia 920 come with spot focus
*which means if u touch some place ..it will adjust setting based on that point

but i can't get this feature in lumia 830 microsoft camera apps (830 always use wide focus)


for example

Lumia 920 (Microsoft Apps + all auto(include iso) + spot focus(touch on bright))

Oh my....I guess i'll stick with my old 920 a little longer then.

maybe microsoft they tried to do stock camera apps for "auto" and dummy user

lumia camera apps is for PROOOO

830

920

so TS..

right now you carry both 830 and 920??which one is with you primary sim in it?

still 920

havent go cut sim yet

btw ..just found out spot focus on lumia 830


go to photo setting > disable tap to take photo ..then u will have spot focus on lumia 830

but lumia 920 u enabled tap to take photo = spot focus + auto take

lumia 830 = spot focus need to manually touch shutter button to capture

parking satu kali. ill read later

Denim update (with new Lumia Camera + rich capture) out - anybody updated?

updated

830 vs legendary 1020

will upgrade my 830 to windows 10 ..stay tune for more update

You forgot the biggest con of Lumia 830:

DAMN SLIPPERY PHONE..!!

I bought it the first week it came out. Since then the phone kept slipping out of my hand, and I had not been able to find a casing for this phone to add more grip. I thought, at this rate sooner or later this phone is gonna break.

True enough this morning it came flying out of my hand and smacked hard screen down against the marble floor. KOYAKKKKKK....

But I love this phone. Good proc, hi res screen with damn good colours, perfect size, 16GB internal storage with MicroSD card slot. Metal chassis & pretty damn durable to take so many drops without a hitch until this morning's smackdown disaster.

I want to buy another Lumia, but at the moment there is none better specced for the price than the 830.

The other con is, the battery doesn't last a day. It gets pretty hot too when gaming. And finding accessories like casing & screen protector for this phone is a real bltch.

though if the 830 is not your primary phone then yes please

casing and screen protector can go for third party ..LYN garage sales and lelong got

yes ..i kinda agree to you that it's very slippery phone compared to my lumia 920

atleast 920 is bulky which we can hold it properly


yup..upgraded and roll back to windows phone 8.1

still in early build ..got a lot of annoying bug(even it's not major)

well..it's not my primary phone ...now everyday just take it out to take photo je

rocking it on my 630.. been around 2 weeks now using the Win10TP

Win10 TP is good enough for showing off to friend but not stable enough for me


btw did rolling back to 8.1 factory reset the phone?

How dose 830's camera perform if compared to its android or fruit conterpart?
