Nokia you can release a string of new models with enticing features but as long as its coming with Windows like all its predecessors i'm telling you, you guys are wasting time, resources and plastic coz it will nosedive just like the prio. I hear Nokia was bought by Microsoft....uuummmm...all I can say is Windows is injustice to mobile phones,pathetic...

              AnonD-197784, 22 Oct 2013Yes when it comes to size but No in other aspects. First... moreAnd btw tiles are updated automatically and can show lot more information than a widget.....and you use anything as a stylus for 1520's screen including nails,keys,resistive stylus,etc....and the wp8 devices all get all upcoming updates for wp8 uptill atleast wp9,whereas on android you get two significant updates if you're lucky so comparing that is illogical.....and apps?tell me there are how many important well known app not available on wp8 but found on android.......

Windows phones in the current environment don't need 3 GB RAM, so comparison with other platforms having 3 GB RAM is a useless thing to do.. hope u understand it now..

                      First of all Note gives you a pure and solid computing platform, it gives you a desktop you can place live widgets to tell you the weather, see pictures, read briefs without a click on "tile"

                      Secondly Note series offers you a pen that does more than doodle, it gives you a selection tool, a writing recognized input (direct) a cursor and a signature entry tool. It basically replaces a file and a computer

                      Thirdly you can customize your phone with backgrounds (live and static, walls with news, etc) and you have tons of apps that you can download (mostly free) to enhance pure productivity.

                      The Android OS also ensures a stable platform and erases doubts of incompatible hardware issues like we've seen from Lumia 800/900 killed to usher in 920/925/820, etc due to simple software  changes condemning total line and generation of recently released and currently used phones.

                      Same way now, the 1520 series now kills any current Lumia you know from the 925 to 1020 simply because they won't be qualified for further full support from Microsoft.

                      So it's okay when properly made to replace the RT as a platform, but not right now as it's just a waste of money to invest in something still in an experimental stage.

                      We have the 920, 925 and Unfortunately the 1020 to show for that, they are no longer compatible with full Microsoft offerings.
