Bundalings Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Hey BZP, doubt there are any more WP users poking about since it's such a small platform at the moment, but I figured I'd ask. I just switched from android to a lovely yellow Lumia 920 and I quite like it so far. The aesthetics are fantastic and it seems to do most of what I want it to, plus some stuff that I've never seen on another platform. So, anyone got a Windows Phone, looking to get a Windows Phone or even just have some interest in the platform? Don't leave me hangin'. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive.

SgtPanda Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I absolutely want a Windows Phone, although I'd have to wait until Christmas comes. How's the Lumia 800 holding up so far? Is it still any good? Quote SoundCloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundalings Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Considering how cheap the 820 and 920 are on contract (in the US anyway) it doesn't seem worth it unless you want something with a small screen.

Rarity Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I used an LG Quantum for about a week and a half. Never again. Quote >Not reading the first greentext story on BZP >2013 Be a cool kid and vote for mighty morphin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundalings Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 I never even considered Windows Phone 7. I mean, the style of the UI was nice, but it was so half-baked and the hardware was awful. WP8 is finally like an actual thing that can be used by humans. I could grow to hate it but so far my only complaint is there's no simple news aggregate app like Bing news for Windows 8. I'm just using CNN now because Weave is a bit too busy and complicated for my tastes. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although I DO want a small screen, and I personally find the 800 a lot more attractive than the 820. Quote SoundCloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bundalings Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 It may be more attractive, but it's weaker and doesn't run new apps at all. Sure, WP 7.8 is coming but I don't think that's enough to suggest getting an older device at this point. The 8X looks nice and has a 4.3 screen, though I don't think it's dimensions are much smaller than the 920s it is notably lighter. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive.

SgtPanda Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I'm thinking of getting it unlocked; only Rogers has the 920 on contract and I dislike their service.I'd still get any of the Lumias to HTC. Quote SoundCloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
