      Let's have a smooth race of flagships.

      When first bought,
      Android : smooth
      iOS : smoother
      WP : smoother

      After a few month and 1000's of apps,
      Android : still smooth
      iOS : hiccups due to lower ram
      WP : smoother

      Winner: WP

              Around the same time last year, when google is about to launch Galaxy Nexus, Steve Jobs passed away and google decide to postpone the date.

              This year, they met with another incident and need to postpone the date again... Not sure if coincidence or fate...

                    GiveMeBreak, 28 Oct 2012You are so shallow. if smoothness is what you only care for... moreI also care about the signal reception, call quality, build quality, camera, screen, clearblack display, and rich audio. Which is why Lumia 920 is my next phone.

                      [deleted post]All these are just pure gimmicks to deceive naive users like you. The truth about WP is that you cannot even attach more than 1 different email attachments type to a single email! WP has an office hub but you cannot attach > 1 office documents to an email! You cannot even use custom ring tone easily! Live tiles are just gimmicky flipping rectangles which are only shortcuts to apps. The calendar tile cannot even navigate to other upcoming events like calendar widget on Android!

                      What's the point of having clear black display when you cannot even watch HD MKV movie formats, and everything will need to be sync by Zune ONLY?

                      Trust me. WP is plain lame and it is just trying to follow the foot steps of iOS.

                            Google has bad luck with it's announcements. Last year it was delayed because Steve Job's died. Now there's a hurricane... Google just can't catch a break.

                                    Android to WP and iOS is like Vista to Windows 8. Noticeable smoother.

                                        At least they have a valid reason to postpone the event. Security always first.
