Lumia 920.......3 month after use.....
I've written my review some day ago in detailed, so no need to discuss common topics.
Microsoft advertized that 150000 apps in market....
ha ha ha ha ha.....
Let me explain..
1. You can only install apps from microsoft store on device itself, that means not from other sites and not by manually...only from MS store...and you know wht?? you've to purchase apps, those are totally free on android & IOS with latest version.....point to be noted some apps are only for INR 500....wow
2. Out of 150000 apps only 2 to 3 apps are useful and some 3 to 4 games are good....
and you know why???? because......
Developers does not have full access to WP OS...means while developing any apps...microsoft restrict some area of OS.
For example: if someone create themes for Live (?) Tiles, developers can access only some 4 to 5 Tiles to theme and not sms icon, not emails, not contacts.etc
another great example...if someone create a apps of battery level indicator...then on live tiles it'll update ur battery status after 30 minutes...means no live status..
these are just examples, all apps are developed in similar manner, because microsoft does not allow developers to create apps like android or IOS...
3. no flash player, so u need youtube apps..
there are lots of youtube apps in store but....
again, microsoft restriction on them....
Those youtube apps can download video but you cant upload it to your PC...they are stored in isolated places.....so no file transfer....
I'm really very disappointed about microsoft..they are all bullshit...
You cant compare WP8 with android or IOS..
even I had Nokia N82, i used N82 for 5 years, and it was 100 times better than today's WP devices...
Only one thing is really good on Lumia devices is "Nokia Maps", really really very great thing..nokia done great job on maps....sorry to say but nokia maps like "Here drive", "City lense" are better than live google maps..because you've life time free GPS license once u purchase Lumia 920...i dont know abt others..
So those who wants customization, please dont go for WP devices, they are totally bullshit
and please if somebody not agree with me, first go use such a expensive phone if u r able to purchase then talk with me........so dont bother to argue
is this phone is good can i buy it

@kosan: Yes, Windows Phone is not a new OS it's an old OS in fact it 's been released since 2005, but since 2005 till windows 7.5 windows is still run under windows embeded OS not WinNT, and this version 8 is a rewritten from ground up using WinNT platform and this is a new OS for what I know transform from Windows embeded OS to WinNT OS thats what I call new(new platform)and its running CSS6 and HTML5 for the life tile and browser thats why it does not need flash player to play embeded movies as FLV and now everyone is moving ahead to CSS6 and HTML 5 for the future platform even Apple is following the windows platform now using CSS5 and HTML6 for their IOS 7 and you still mentioning Flash Player? Even Adobe themselves already stop supporting on flash support on android and now try surch for Flash Player at Play Store see can you find it for download unless you serch for torrent or other source and thats why you need file manager to install it, an I right?
