My Next Windows Phone - George Ponder

Nokia Lumia 920

We've been asked to share with y'all which of the new Windows Telephone eight devices nosotros'll be getting. It's a pull a fast one on question on my stop because I'll probable get 2, maybe 3 of the new Windows Telephone because of my work. To be true to the spirit of the question, I need to share which of the new Windows Phone 8 devices I'll exist using as my daily device.

While the Samsung ATIV S and HTC 8X both seem to be quality Windows Phones, the photographer in me can't ignore the potential the Nokia Lumia 920'south Pureview Photographic camera has. Combined with a unibody pattern that I like and the iv.five" screen that my aging eyes like then the Lumia 920 becomes my selection for everyday use. I'm just not sure if I'll stick with my conservative black or take a stride on the wild side and go with yellowish.

And the choice also goes across designs and features. Nokia has a track record, that I have no incertitude will continue, of supporting their Windows Phone devices. Nokia has set the standard, while HTC and Samsung has chosen to focus their support behind Android devices. It even shows in the new Windows Telephone 8 devices.

Yellow or Black... that is the question!

While the Samsung ATIV S and HTC 8x are attractive phones, I come across them as quick fixes to go on both companies in the Windows Phone Marketplace. Granted HTC has nevertheless to "officially" unveil the 8x but I'grand not expecting much beyond a OneX body running Windows Phone eight (or peradventure the consummate HTC One Series converted to Windows Phone). For Samsung, I couldn't help but feel the ATIV S is nothing more the Galaxy S 3. I simply don't see anything new being brought to the table with these 2 phones.

Nokia on the other mitt worked to amend upon the Lumia line with a ameliorate photographic camera, a "wireless" charging option, and more exclusive apps. It felt as if Nokia wasn't content with merely installing Windows Telephone eight on an existing device, they wanted to introduce a new device to keep with the new Bone.

Nokia just seems more invested with Windows Phone platform while everyone else views the platform equally a way to diversify their production portfolio. For HTC and Samsung to accept any success in the Windows Phone marketplace, I retrieve they demand to step it up in how they support their devices.

For me, the new features coming to the table (really looking frontward to the camera) combined with a proven design and visitor support makes the Lumia 920 the best choice. Now I may be slap out incorrect and the Lumia 920 volition make for a meliorate door terminate than Windows Telephone. If that'south the case and then I'll be the start to share those thoughts simply for now, the Lumia 920 will be replacing my Lumia 900 equally my primary Windows Phone.
