Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Guys..I am planning on replacing my Xperia L with a Windows Handset in the near future..
Can i pls get these queries answered ? :)

1. is there a Lumia 725 device on the way ? if yes, any expected time of arrival ?
2. I regularly use my mobile for watching videos/movies. Is there any excellent Video player ( like MX player of playstore ) that can handle all formats ? ( preferably free :p )
3. The last time i checked out the windows store on my friend's 520 was last year ( around June). At that time, i found the appstore a bit lacking. Has it improved much now ? :)

Thanks. :)

1. Don't know
2. Yes MoliPlayer works similar to mx player on play store but it is a paid app and worth every penny.
3.App store has definitely improved and is improving day by day. You can also try Lumia 525 (the successor to Lumia 520)

1. Forget 725. 730 might be on its way.
2. Buy MoliPlayer or Wait for VLC
3. Almost 500 apps are added to the WP Store everyday, as per a recent news.

The main reason i went for Xperia L was because it had good specs & a reportedly fantastic 8MP camera. So far, the Camera's performance has been somewhat of a disappointment in low-light conditions. :(
I may have gone with Lumia 720 instead which has a terrific camera, but i think i'll wait for its successor.

Yeah, I forgot about that. With 630 and 930 on their way, I thought the 720's successor will be named 730. But, I hope it will named 7xy where x=2 or 3 and y!=0

With Windows Phone 8.1 could one set an wallpaper for home-screen without those tiles running at background? I am not talking about lock-screen.

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

That's good, but still I don't know why there isn't an option to disable the tiles and have it only when you want, by clicking on an icon or something. I always love an wallpaper in full on home-screen :(
Seems like another thing I will miss from Android :|
