LtE 1800 does that mean it will support the EE network?

I don't see why not. However, will have to wait and see.

 

[RSR]

The whole package to me looks ace . The camera alone for me does it , anyone who is not impressed by the camera and the video is insane , and should be taken away and shot

Day one purchase for me Kudos for nokia doing something different !

Snap.

I'll be pre-ordering a yellow Lumia 920, as soon as I can. However, we are still waiting on a ETA, but I believe it should be around Oct 26.

 

[RSR]

Why not have the 920 & 820 in one thread?

Different handsets with different specs.

 

[RSR]

Yeah that was dissapointing, but heres a live demo, I don't see why they needed to fake it, it's pretty good

Woohhhhaaaa impressed.

The Red doesn't look that bad.... hmmmmm

 

[RSR]

The only let down could be the whole OS? You could have a 10Ghz i7 equivalent phone and it'd be crap if the OS is bad. Not that the 920 is anything too special hardware wise, especially big but that's it.

I think the OS is one of the main selling points, its simple, easy to use and very fluid.

 

[RSR]

obligatory picture required.

 

[RSR]

nope, rumours were the end of October.

I have my bets on October 28th.

 

[RSR]

New 'report' that the Lumia 920 will be released mid-October in Germany, and will retail for 600 Euro ($758, £476):

Thats pretty good if that's true.

 

[RSR]

Well if they don't put up some proper footage from the phone so we can comp[are it function they certainly will have problems selling the thing. I think people deserve to see a proper version of that advert using the phone.

bet they don't though....

erm, what's this then?

 

[RSR]

Really like the design of the devices though but once again no MicroSD card capabilities makes it a no-go for me.

Lumia 820 takes a MicroSD card though. However, I do get the impression MicroSD cards are on the way out.

 

[RSR]

Only thing thats going to undo this right now, is film it again and this time lets see the footage from the guy riding the bike that was meant to be filming her.

End of, nothing else will do now.

That maybe true, and whist I agree.

I do believe that some people have going completely OTT with but that's to be expected I guess on the internet. The video, yes it can be seen as misleading but its is a technology demo and no where is its stated that its taken with the Nokia 920. Nokia are a technology partner with Carl Zeiss, who probably have a demo rig / lens to showcase the OIS tech.

However, all of the above has not put my off the device as I covers all the area very nicely that I am after. The only question I have is what DAC is in the handset?

 

[RSR]

i am enjoying getting into the lumia 800 i got a few days ago very slick os , so if windows 8 is better then i am all for it , Apps wise there seems to be most of the big hitter there.
got viber whats app etc no problem at all

It's a very good little handset, which a bit different from most of the other handsets on the market. WP7.5 is a very fluid OS and works really well, its main short comings where the Windows CE Kernel which puts a hardware limitation on the hardware and the Windows Store. The hardware area of Windows Phone has massively improved since moving to the Windows NT kernel and the Windows Store is making steady process, with over 100K applications now.

What I do find interesting is the applications on the WP platform, they theme very nicely with the OS. One example I can think of is a application called Cocktail Flow, if you look at this on all 3 formats, visually its noticeably better on WP compared to iOS and Android.

Another hands on video:

A film about the best display: Nokia PureMotion

 

[RSR]

I love the phone, like the cam but my only gripe is with the uptake of new apps for WP8. Not much point having a phone this capable without software to back it up.

It already has most of the key applications on the platform, the only main admissions being Sky Go (but that's a bit bitty on Android as well) and iPlayer. However, they will arrive over time. There are over 100,000 Windows Phone applications at the moment and that's only set to grow in the coming months etc...

 

[RSR]

Or they haven't actually announced the release date and price because they are waiting to see what Apple release...

Or Microsoft don't want to give anything away in WP8, like they did in WP7 and then the likes of Google and Apple where able to second guess them.

 

[RSR]

And that, have MS officially confirmed when the OS will release yet?

Not yet, I fully expect a MS press conference shortly with them demoing all the full features of WP8.

 

[RSR]

MS have the BUILD 2012 conference planned for Oct 30th - Nov 2nd, I really hope they announce all the WP8 features before that though!

That will be for Server 2012 / W8, as far as I know.

I am expecting something in the next few weeks with dates.

 

[RSR]

Looks like WP8 has themes.
