I'm a bit late to the windows 8 party as I was waiting for Samsung but can anyone convince me one way or or the other
Lumia 920 vs ATIV S?
i'm slightly put off by the weight of the lumia.
hi mate, i havnt used the ativ s personally, but after owning the s3, my opinion of samsung greatly dropped. mainly i find the build quality and premium feel is dropping in samsung, but this is probably mostly my own opinion.
i recently decided to switch to windows phone and after much research and debating which handset to get, the nokia lumia's were the clear winners, for three main reasons,
firstly, there are a range of exclusive nokia only apps available such as nokia drive, maps, and a whole bunch of other useful stuff. you can buy other third party sat nav apps, but nokia's is by far the best and free. nokia are really developing hard for the windows phone range, and this makes it easier to move to windows phone.
secondly the camera on the 920 is far above the quality of any other windows phone. it takes amazing pictures, and with the addition of 'lenses' you can do some really neat tricks with it.
and thirdly is the build quality and attention to detail with the lumia 920. you really do feel like you have more than you £450's worth. when i first handled it, i was also surprised about the weight but you honestly do get use to it very fast. the screen is extremely fluid and clear as crystal.
these are my opinions, but as i say, i havnt had much of a go with the ativ, or read many reviews, hope it helps
