Of course the sales will be modest . This phone is only for niche users . Nokia released this just to fill the gap till they update their other lumias and also a phablet . Even if this sells a million . Then its a success. Mission acomplished

                    It is not “$300 no contract”. The phone is “$300 with a 2 year contract”. If that is true, I would have gone and got one.

                            The iphone5 on ios7 beta beats Samgung Galaxy S4 in gaming performance. Surely the Samsung has some problem (if not the Android or the combination of both)

                              z, 30 Jul 2013windows runs smooth because it's empty. only tiles and app ... moreIt's a phone!!!! When will you all you techy types stop falling for the marketing and getting sucked into the apps/useless features/tech specs meaningless hype. Having used all platforms for some time, I can honestly say that WP is by far the most innovative and smoothest experience with the weakest processor power which should be applauded as that means you pay less! Oh, it also holds a signal and has better call quality than all the others too!

                                  Lumia sales are zero. The lumia 1020 is horrible with obsolete windowsphone. The 41megapixel camera is much more than a user need it. I recommend to buy samsung galaxy s4 with 13 megapixels camera, it is by far excellent and you have the top1 phone of the year, and running ANDROID which is actually the best mobile OS of the world.
