becool79, 05 Nov 2014In camera department u are right...but 1020 has ois that is very good for low light images and... moreThanks for the reply brother. I will also never ever sell off my 920 and 1020 . NEVER. 920 upped the Mobile Photography game considerably and still gets the best and fastest low light photos even when compared to 1020 and also that design that speaker that WC that LCD (am a LCD fan u know ) puts a smile everytime on my face . And the 1020 ? King of the hill of Photography ! Although I don't even like AMOLED but the Screen blows other 720p amoleds away and also that Hump ! Am proud of that hump that matte finish and that XENON FLASH shows everytime that Dual LEDs are kids ! Just wish it was a bit faster in opening the Lumia Camera and saving photos had a SD card slot like 808 ! Proud to own the most unique pieces of mobile device's world !

geekboy, 05 Nov 2014I have the 1020 alongside 920 and one of my Uncle bought a 808 (used) recently. When I compare... moreIn camera department u are right...but 1020 has ois that is very good for low light images and hand shake....thou I prefer the lumiw 1020 pics as its adds color to pics...where 808 shoots more natural one. I own both phones...but as symbian is shut and os is a bit laggy and buggi compared to windows os. For me still symbian is the best os till date....I find android a heavy copy of symbian....if today day to had a choice I would use lumia 1020 . thou I will never sell my 808 PV and lumia 1020...they both are master pieces.

I have the 1020 alongside 920 and one of my Uncle bought a 808 (used) recently. When I compared the pics on my PC monitor,the 808's images looked more natural and true color reproduction was there Whereas my Yellow beast produced oversharpened pics. I oddly liked the 808's pics more and struggled to make my Yellow Beast Win but without any success! Is it bcoz that 808 has a dedicated Broadcomm Chip ? Also I noticed it was faster in opening the cam. Is it bcoz of lighter OS (Belle FP2) ?

If you are satisfied with the battery backup of the 720 I think you will also be about the 1020's battery. Of course when you'll use the camera very much, the battery drains quickly.

~MY THOUGHTS WINDOWS PHONE 8.1~
Having using using Microsoft ecosystem since last May on my secondary NL720 device. Although it has some cons. but overall configuration of OS is really sleek and stylish. It will take a while for familiar.
No doubt Microsoft done a superb job to established its mobile OS to give customers another option in very competitive smartphone market where Android is the king.The good which i like is u can control your background running apps, in result of this OS battery last a long, although live tiles are also a unique idea to stay updated but tiles updates info only for some period of the day.
MAIN CONS:-
1. SETTINGS: 1st major cons. of this OS is its settings menu which is really confusing it should be determined in a different category wise tabs or groups for easy and user friendly access. But Microsoft throw all controling components of OS and settings here and there. Suppose if you are looking for hard reset option or mobile data option or even you want to copy your contacts from sim to phone then it will definitely make you annoy to find all this in emergency.
2. CONTACTS: If you store two different numbers with same name in your contact list and u want to make call one of them well no you press one name and it will automatically make call without showing number which is obviously irritating. Even if you want to copy your contacts from sim to phone then its really hard to find where the hell this option us exist specialy if u r new user even it took 2 to 3 days for me to find out this which is located in people hub option. Finally whenever u want to store or create any new contact it didn't display the storage location like sim, email or phone.
3. ACTON CENTRE TOGGLES: In action centre there is only 6 toggles u can add it should have more option for new toggles to add specialy heavily used mobile data option which didn't exist in action centre.
Above all cons are only my thoughts and observation and they are the minor issues which will definatly solve in near future updates.

APPS GAP:-
Most of commonly used apps are there in store but majority of those apps are still in beta phase and functionality wise they are 2 years behind specialy social apps (like FB, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram,Viber etc) then Google and Apple apps library.

THE MOST concerning thing is that windows phone didn't have any Google & Apple apps in its store . Which is really sad and main problem for its downfall.Majority of the customers in globe are using google apps to meet their daily demands specialy google maps for navigation and entertaining youtube app . Although Here maps are good option but this application have some issues in some regions like in my country Pakistan . Microsoft should sort out what matter they have had with Google on urgent basis to brings there apps in WP store. If it happens then it will be a huge bonus for this OS . Even Google and Apple have each other apps in their respective stores including Microsoft apps as well, then why windows phone dont have all this stuff in its store . Microsoft become so lazy to sort out these issues with other vendors otherwise they will lose the battle and majority of their customers will shift to other OS.Even i am also shifted to Andriod although i like windowsphone so much and functionality and smoothness wise i rated it above on andriod and iOS.

These are the genuine issues which i found during my experience and then describe here to share with all of you . Microsoft has to address all these matters on war footing basis to stay alive in competition.
Thanks and Waiting For Your Thought's ..
