Re: The Windows Phone Thread
Wrong. Nokia express browser does data-compression. Anyways I dont care about this part IE is plenty for me even with the flash-support lacking. I can look up youtube and thats the only flash site I care about.
Text warp (reflow) doesnt work, agree. I never so far needed to do it, but then I dont browse much so I cant speak for everyone.
you r taking about this ? check review bu urself
Nokia Xpress | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (भारत)
I didnt use whatsapp or flipboard (free msg offer is what I use for the ones I care dont always have net connectivity and therefore I NEED text messaging, whereas IM is just a value add-on). I wanted a fuss-free phone. And a stand-out device that shows me where my money went.
Then there is the Live tiles which I like a lot. And the monolithic design of WP. I am also a bit concerned on maps - personally preferred Google maps but offline search is a feature I have come to love (like I pointed out earlier I dont use data plans - its either wifi at work or home) Nokia maps looks a lot less detailed where I live, even though sometimes slightly inaccurate but it hasnt let me down yet and thats as good a test as any for usability. And I have the option of google maps anyways if I really need it (Use gmaps or google maps to search and find the location before you start and then use Nokia maps to route offline. Hell I can (and I have) even reroute offline without data because Nokia maps supports it should I unfortunately need to. Try beating that.)
i think u can even use nokia asha then
no offense . just joking
@ankit ...I think battery life, lag on top end androids and extra large shirt pocket
maybe some reason to neglect androids
Nokia have done well with camera, battery life is good in WP phones, Windows phones are total lag free , better built quality (IMO) and Nokia maps/guidance system is unmatchable
i m totally agree with you . . windows phone are lag free and has good battery life and beat android . and that's is there main disadvantage . they bulid windows phone like that it' should be lagfree so they put restriction on ram usage of application . same goes to battery u can't run application in background like it's run in android . it will cause some problem in application like whatsapp or any other messenger application .
what i m taking is . if you put Rs30,000 on some device it's should be better in build quality which nokia has so nothing to talk discuss about it . but when it come to internal part like IPS screen / processor / RAM battery . r u really think nokia should sell L920 for 30k ?
forget about OS r u really think you can compare S3 / S4 HTC one with L920 if u compare internal part of this device ? yes i think there maybe upper hand in build quality of lumia it you compare it with samsung phone .
i m not saying windows phone is bad . but id you look microsoft / nokia marketing strategy is total fail .. i saw some online shop selling L900 which launch @ 40k . same goes to surface .
i don't like to go for Microsoft product because if they think it's not working they simply kill them it. like they do to windows zune . and windows phone 7 . though windows phone 7 is not too bad ..
what do you mean by text wrapping is not working, it perfectly works on thinkdigit. Can you tell me a website which ie10 is not able to wrap the text. Ie10 on lower end lumias can beat the browsers of under 20k androids.
try to open gptoday.com
i think it's better to have 2-3 browser . specially browser like opera mini in phone when there is no 3g coverage

bottom line .
i personally don't recommend any Lumia 920 925 or another costly windows phone model . price tag won't deserve what phone is offering.
but if phone we get phone like L520 there is no reson to look any other android / apple product
take lumia 900 for example .
