"Lumia 920 looks good on paper"

The "underwhelming" iPhone 5 is actually running a functioning OS. You can create all the feature matrixes you want, doesn't change the fact that one was in peoples' hands today, and the other has to simulate it's features because it's software doesn't work yet


No. A Windows Phone site choosing a Windows Phone over a phone that not Windows Phone. I'm shocked I say shocked.

O great bird of the galaxy I wish I had 1 downvote for this numskull.


lol, ouch. i didn't say it was objective (is anything from any blog really?)... and there were plenty of submissions as the event unfolded focusing on every minute iterative change the iPhone 5 brings; this provides another take looking at the specs as a whole and comparing them to other devices.

and it’s a testament to the iPhone that they lead-off in the article how for once a Windows Phone out-spec’s the iPhone; and you have to admit that the new Nokia Lumia 920 does up it in many ways (nfc, wireless charging, better screen, better camera, colour selection/matching accessories, etc...). i’m not saying its better in every way nor does the article imply that.

not trolling here, but people do tend to get caught-up with these events and assume every detail out of every Apple product announcement makes it, by default, the best and most cutting-edge. this article highlights that, for a change, someone else (in this case, Nokia) has actually out-innovated the undisputed leader in the market in some regards..


If only Nokia released the Lumia with Android, then they could already be shipping.


>Nokia Lumia

>Better than iPhone

Pick one.
