    AnonD-169909, 20 Aug 2013Here is simple example for why windows phone 8 sucks... Look at the windows phone call log...... morefirstly just go and check again, there are all options available in call log to save a contact or even send a text message. It is just that either you are a troll or an illiterate. Windows phone needs a literate person to handle

      S P S, 19 Aug 2013Sir .,Im always used this product “Nokia” about 9 years ok…at this time im using phone “Nokia ... moreHere is simple example for why windows phone 8 sucks...
      Look at the windows phone call log...
      Every call from same no appears in separate Entry. No call duration details , after weeks you can't even see the calling time also... No option for save a number from call log or message back. No way to add to contacts you simply need type that number if you want add it to contacts... Only option present in call log is a simple delete...

Yes, compared to Symbian, Symbian is still better, but that's Nokia decision to join with Microsoft. Not sure for the future, but seems Nokia keeps commitment using Windows Phone OS and now it has passed BlackBerry position in the world.

                AnonD-176731, 18 Aug 2013hai friends iwon buy this phone how is battery life
                The battery life is not so good for nokia luimia 820. It is 1650mAh for 4.3 inch screen , not so sufficient…. It should be 1800mAh or 2000mAh for better battery life …. In lumia 720 we have 2000mAh battery for same size screen, so may be the battery life of nokia lumia 720 is much better, but in 720 the RAM is only 512 mb so there we have loss of big games but in lumia 820 there is 1 gb RAM……But in nokia 820 battery life is irritating sometime…..

                    i. Some of the cons in windows phone….....

                    1. If we call a person 10 times then that single person's name(or no.)comes 10 times in call log not come single time so in call log this repetition irritates but we want it should be come only one time and all call information of that no. is placed on the menu option in the phone.....
                    2. In call log we cannot see the call duration of any no., we can see call duration only during the call….. Even some old made calls that is approx. 10-15 days old calls in call log we cannot see the time of the call, can only see date and month of these old made calls…..
                    3. In gallery we cannot see the time at which we click that particular picture, means there is no details option for any image.....
                    4. we cannot directly close the applications in windows phone that is there is no any task manager in windows phone..... e.g. if internet explorer and other applications are open, then to close all the applications we have to open that apps one by one, and close them one by one..... but in android we press and hold the home button , we see all the open apps and then directly drag them away to close any application.....
                    5. For closing any application, we have to come back by the back button step by step..... for e.g. if we open any application and reach the 7th page in it then to close that application we have to come back all previous 7 pages sequentially by the back button then it will be closed.....
                    6. There is no back button in internet explorer…..If we are using internet explorer and say we reached on 4th page in any one website in internet explorer and then suddenly we press home button for any other work or to open any other app and then again click on the internet explorer,the internet explorer show us the last open page and then if we press the back button of the phone it will come on the home screen not on the 3rd page of that website in internet explorer. So now our previous pages are lost and to get them back we have to put the address of that website’s pages again.....
                    7. We cannot get any video clip from any site in internet explorer of the windows phone i.e. we cannot download any video…..
                    8. No google chrome , firefox or opera is available in windows phone.....
                    9. Nokia Music that is its music player when we open it then it takes some loading for opening it as like we are opening any website lol.....
                    10. In music player ,we can forward or reverse the song in particular amount or levels , minimum level of forwarding or reversing the song is almost 5 seconds that is we cannot forward or reverse the song directly by clicking on that moving line bar in the music player but this function is available in android phones..... so for music lovers some time it is very irritating thing…..
                    11. We cannot zoom in or out ,in videos or say cannot resize the playing video in number of levels but this function is available in most of the android phones.....
                    12. Nokia 820 ,920 have xbox feature games. But mostly interesting and enjoying games in xbox are paid….. Even popular games Fruit Ninja, Angry bird etc are paid games…..There is less interesting apps or games in windows phone as compared to android phones…..TEMPLE RUN 2 game is not available on windows phone till now..... and like other popular games in android phones are not available in windows phone.....
                    13. We have no zooming option during video recording in progress and no pause option for video recording.....
                    14. We have waste hardware search button used for bing. No one using it. Its really irritating when bing launches by accidently touching it while running other apps or games…..
                    15. There is only 3 levels for brightness i.e low, medium and high.... thats all.... and one option is auto..... so brightness control is not so good..... even at low level it is somtime feel bright in a dark room .... but in android it is a moving bar line for brightness which is very good option......

                          AnonD-176731, 18 Aug 2013hai friends iwon buy this phone how is battery lifeThe battery lasts typically 1 day if you do only smses and phone calls. It lasts only a few hours if you use the GPS function. So if you are travelling and using the GPS, it is advisable to bring a portable charger. It switches off when you are below 5%, and wont turn on until you recharge it.

                          The GPS function is great if you are travelling to other countries often cos it allows you to download any map in the world(except Cambodia).

                            I bought it a week ago and for now it's pretty good.Camera could be better but it's good enough.WP8 is great,everything goes smooth and nice.There are a lot of Nokia apps included witch makes it better than HTC,like Nokia Maps,Nokia Drive + or City Lence.Battery is OK,it holds one day but 1650 mAH is not enough for some gameing or intensive use.Overall I think it's good phone for someone who doesn't want anything special it's some middle class phone that has some awesome qualities.
