Seriously, if Microsoft get this right, and it's going to be difficult to get everything completely polished and fully seamless, this whole XBOX + Phone + Tablet + PC user experience will be spot on, but they got to get it perfect, I'm currently testing Windows RT NVidia Developer TAB along with Windows 8 64bit and the experience is quite pleasing, takes some getting used to but it's very very well done.

    whoa!... telling that to samsung like it is the end of their domination... then, WP8 must be something... (wp8 + pureview tech. is a nice start to the new lumia series)...

        Yeah, im genuinely quite excited about WP8.

        BUT... Remember Microsoft's funeral for Apple, that too was a bold statement, bet they feel pretty embarrased about it now.

        If Nokia want to take on Samsung for Market share, they would need Android. WP8 Will eventually win out I think, but to warn a company in Samsung's position is naive. Samsung won't 'take note' untill Lumia is taking +10% market share.

                    Nokia is planning to launch a WP8 with pureview, problem for nokia is that it is a high end device. Samsung success is to launch 60 devices per year, tablets, galaxy note, etc, all running android, so it covers the whole people. i will NOT buy a lumia phone. Market is very small, i will not invest in a 1% market share market. i will keep my android device.

                      Existing Lumia Phones will not see Wp8 as you know, updating to WP7.988883 not 8!, galaxy s2 still gets updates :)

                      All clear!

                        All the best nokia. Wp8 is very promising and it will suceed bcoz of its close integration with windows 8 pc and directX gaming ! Pureview ofcourse... Just make asha s40 smrt phne somehow(add multitasking) ,and samsung will no longer lead. Samsung sells a lot of lower range android phones, which are outsolled by similar priced asha series

                          that is a very daring move from nokia to call out samsung directly.i think they have some awsome products up there sleeves

                            Chris Weber is the one who should be taking notes: Standard & Poor's just downgraded Nokia's rating from BB+ to BB-!!!
                            Nokia and Microsoft are too far behind in this game! Why would Samsung take note?! Samsung should (and will) take note of the new Apple iPhone. Nokia and Microsoft products are rubbish...

                                  Eagerly awaiting for Nokia Lumia's. Surely, its gonna eat a lot of Samsung's market share & others of the Android troop - most of which have substandard performance & intentionally done design flaws - of battery & other resources, overly priced, that can't create satisfaction including hTC, Motorola, Sony, etc.

                                  Its just that Apple isn't targeting bottom of pyramid - lower price pts, etc.

                                      WP is pathetric platform with horrible battery life, no funcionality and no Applications. Nokia hardware is mimndblowingly overpriced, selling years old CPUs for premium prices. What a shame...
