I dont give a flying fuck about well known apps, the reason why i cant just stop using Android is because they have those shitty indie games who nobody but a few (including me) people uses, serial monitor to pair my android with my arduino, the chance to create apps easily with appinventor to (again) be able to pair my phone with my 'duino using bluetooth, etc
Also, afaik theres no piracy on W8 so... no thanks.

neither. When I saw it first I thought it wasn't anything special but trust me, even if the rest of the OS was absolute utter shit (which it isn't, but it certainly isn't flawless either), I woud take it for the Glance Screen. You get used to it so much you are scared to realize. It saves so much time and is just all around so practical that I really don't understand why nobody else except the Moto X or what the device is makes it. When your phone is lying on the table, you always have a nightclock, when you take it out of your pocket, even half-way, you instantly know the time and your notifications without touching a thing. It's amazing.

No you cannot root it. What do you want to root it for? You can delete all apps except for those baked into the system by the manufacturer (not the OEM, so just stuff like Phone, Messages, Contacts). If you want to change its design, you cannot do too much but out of the box it's much more verstile than android, at least from what I think (unrooted that is). Tell me what you want from the phone.

No, I just feel I should not be limited to applications Microsoft feels acceptable to allow on my phone. For example, I feel I should be allowed to load a compiler onto my phone that targets my phone. I have GCC 4.9.1 on my Android phone, so I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to, for example, load MinGW on a Windows phone.

>>
>>46907090
It isn't a meme, it is missing just about all crucial apps that both IOS and Android have. On top of that it's average response times are worse than both android&os, battery life is wrose, cameras on Lumia phones are only marginally better in specific conditions, and a serious lack of functionality or customization. This is without really getting into the serious derth of apps on their "app store" if you could call it that. It doesn't even have snapchat, youtube, or alternate browsers! It's crap. BBos LITERALLY has more support than windows phone. At least I can install android apps on my passport!

I'm using a WP8.1 Phone and an Android Tablet. While I have no responsive lags in WP8.1 it's a common feature on my Android device. I don't know if it's the apps fault, but usually apps don't hang up on WP8.1.

Been there with my Lumia 520 and managed to survive 1 year. Now I have a Moto X and enjoy my 100% usable OS. To be honest, the only mobile OS's that can have the ability to overpass Android are Sailfish and Ubuntu Phone, and I hope they do.

Hey everybody, look! It's a real-life stupid! Glance was originally only for OLED screens and later released for LCD panels that supported it. As a matter of fact, it's been my observation that Nokia pioneered this shit a long, long time ago. They had it on their Symbian phones and on the n9, which was abandoned about the time Microsoft slipped their nasty hands up Nokia's blouse. So don't be proud of Android having taken this convenience.

If you use some WP with 512MB ram you will instantly notice that you have 0 multitasking ability without reloading apps every time, that applications are slow to start and that going to the homescreen will usually lag when an action is in progress. It's to be expected in a 512 MB RAM phone honestly but I'm tired of those people who scream that WP IS OPTIMISED!!11!!111! shit everywere.

>>
>>46907954
are you retarded? have you ever even used a 512mb ram android? whereas on wp 512mb ram means resuming screen and just a bit of lag here and then if you have some apps open, 512mb of ram on android means not being able to write a fucking message without the keyboard lagging like shit, it means having CONSTANT freezes and apps simply not opening, it means apps crashing a whole lot, something that has NEVER happened on my Lumia 630.

WP is far better optimized than android. don't talk about shit you know anything of. android is abhorrent shit on devices with less than 1GB of ram, anyone who has ever used something like a Lumia 630 and a Vodafone smart 4 mini likeI did knows the difference is immense.

and now that every new wp has 1GB of ram its probably much more fluid than any 1GBram android phone.

you're talking out of your ass and have probably never owned a Lumia.
>>
>>46908095
uh, I don't know, because of the specs maybe? if you're going for a Lumia 630 while knowing the 640 is about to come out you're going to make an extremely dumb choice. if you can extend your budget a bit more, get a Lumia 730.

Then perhaps you should use the correct terminology, buddy ;)

But seriously, I know where you're coming from. I have used all kinds of different phones (used to be self-employed selling on eBay), and each OS has their ups and downs, of course. WP is cool for some things, and Android is cool for others. No real need to disrespect a platform just because you see no use in it. I know saying that is far too reasonable and neutral for this place, so please feel free to flame on.

>>
>>46907954
Sure, if you're popping all over the place. I agree it's aggravating when WP closes shit out (trying to listen to audio books was a nightmare) but it's really more of an issue of the OS being designed to work WITH the hardware instead of BY it. That's why the moronic specs wars are such a big deal for Android phones because Android is where something like that really matters. I'm always switching out Android phones, but still go back to my Lumia 925 and can feel the consistent performance with standard use. Plus I get considerably better hardware.
>>
>>46908041
A very good condition used 920 can be had for around $100 or less; thats really your best bet.That will give you the best experience concerning build quality and great hardware, plus the camera. The LCD screen is actually better than the 925's AMOLED panel, in my opinion.
>>
>>46908293
Gmail works very well in the stock email client. You get your contacts and calendar shit, too. Only issues I've noticed are lack of sync when it comes to deleting emails from the phone. That's probably a setting I'm missing, though.

I never understood where that came from, in my experience Android phones (even the 2.3 ones) run as fast or even better than iPhones

Other advantages of android:
>replaceable battery
>replaceable kernel (better battery life)
>ability to change kernel parameters on the fly (better battery life)
>full control over system
>uses Bluetooth and NFC to its full extent
>ability to use 3rd party appstores
>not limited to locked down ecosystem
>more than 2 or 3 phones to chose from

still a waste of pixels and annoying as fuck to bring them up

I'd rather have a button at the back that takes 5 minutes to get used to than having physical buttons on the front making the phone abnormaly huge. Perfect fit between screen size and mobile size. Physical buttons on front would've turned the phone into a block.

>>46908692
I don't mind the buttons on the back, but the fact that there's no hardware buttons on the front was a real turn off for me.

I presume there is no proprietary software / drivers on AOSP
So no fingerprint sensor, no heartrate scanner, no S Pen, no dual camera, no special case support (S-View, Dot View..) and so on
So basically turning your "flagship" in a $100 phone

Why don't we have a WP thread without a taunting OP.
So we can just talk with other users about W10 without a mob of pseudo-neckbeards telling us about their customization?

There's more with WP because there's only a few shills in g pushing this every day. If the shills are paid or just haven't used a decent android phone before, I don't know.

>Have you held a Nokia?
Yes. Have you held a Nokia phone actually made before 2012? In Salo? Because they are leagues ahead of anything Microsoft is putting out. Designed in a different country, designed by a different team, and manufactured in a Chinese sweatshop using cheaper plastic a thinner metal to keep costs down.

>Specs are only an android thing.
Is this how people devoted to hipster platforms convince themselves its alright to overpay for old components? I was under the impression it was just a Crackberry thing.

Well. Meizu are putting Ubuntu Touch on their MX4, which is a nice phone.

maybe, but the one on Nokia Lumia is great. the glossy plastic on some Microsoft Lumia phones does seem like shit tho
>>
>>46909255
I used a Lumia 800, that felt like it could be used as a weapon. Seriously incredible in hand.

Held a 620, felt cheap as fuck, would not own/10.

Have a 520 and it feels nice and solid. But not that easy to hold for some reason.

uh, let me see... pretty much everyone other than the 920, 925, 930 and 1020?

then please excuse my ignorance
>>
>>46909100
and where do android phones have better specs than windows phones? the Lumia 532, 535, the 640 and the 730 are better than any android competition, the 830 might be somewhat overpriced, but on the other hand it has the camera of a flagship, and the 930 and the 1520 have great price quality for the price. and wp has lower requirements compared to android anyway.

Im really happy with my Lumia 730. It has no lag, good quality screen, dual sim is really cool feature. The only thing that could be better is camera.
I also have Nexus 7 2013 and Moto G.

And gotta be honest with you, for me Lumia 730 > Moto G.

Have you even used WP or just looked at the total number of apps in the appstore
because, boy, those thousands of fappy bird and instagram clones and emoji keyboards with a separate app for every colour are so nice to have

When is the 640 available? couldnt find a date anyway.

And should i wait for it or get a 730?

Btw is LTE must have? should i consider 735 instead?
>>
>>46909473
The argument is shit even on Loonix.
>>
>>46911471
Wait for 640.
>>
>>46911471
>Coming soon. Exp. release 2015, March
http://www.gsmarena.com/microsoft_lumia_640_xl_lte-7087.php

Wait for 640's review and decide it. If you don't like the review then grab 730/5 or wait for flagship.

>LTE must have
If your country supports it why not? It makes you get faster internet tho.
>>
>>46906654
I wouldn't be using a 521 if I had the money
>>
>>46892331
Doesn't have:
Kik
Snapshat
Tinder
not even Grinder for the fags

>>46892347
Fuck off. My Lumia lags like shit.
>>
>>46912272
It has Kik (hasnt been updated since February 2012) and Tinder (6tin) And yeah, no grindr
>TFW bricked my Moto G for being lazy
Christ. Can't wait until the 5.0 MBM-CI files get released so I can get back on it and enjoy the superior battery life, LED flash and good applications.

Does this site not have any moderators? How is this thread still up when it's clearly flamebait, it's clearly shitposting and it's chock full of posts from retarded shitposters. Goddamn /g/ has gone to shit. Fuck you all so much. Die.

>>46909100
That's why I asked if you held a NOKIA, dude. Latest Nokia branded Lumia I've interacted with was the Icon, and it was art. The Lumias that matter have all been high quality and solid. It's a shame that they were desperate enough to go exclusively for Microsoft and their money. You have no place to talk shit about any lower class Lumias because, what, ~93% of androids are the exact same garbage materials and manufacturing grade as you just mentioned? Haha

See what I did earlier? I said "the Lumias that matter". That doesn't sound like a devoted " WP hipster" to me. Windows Phone is good in its own right, but lacks anything close to android as far as utilitarian power. I like WP when it's paired with good Nokia hardware, but that's really it. So try to not be an ass and generalize people as black or white. That shit is so fucking stupid on this site. What's wrong with just discussing shit like humans?

if WP didn't STOP background processes and there were a new phone that was the same size and style as the 925 then i'd jump on it.

at this point WP just isn't there, and getting rid of Rudy Huyn's good apps isn't making WP's case any better
