      You know the first time when you mentioned spell check. I use a galaxy note 3 and I can't help it if koreans don't know how to properly incorporate such "useful" features onto their flagship phones. Now you have yourself a good day and just keep looking for all the small mistakes that big companies make so they can keep reading your intelligent little comments.

          You're response is almost as common as you're name. Speak when spoken to. If I was interested in you're comment I would reply but unfortunately for you I only reply to people with common sense. Its a pity all you focus on is bashing company's which couldn't care less about what trolls like you think. Its called an opinion, that's what you have and that's what we all have. Yours just isn't worth reading.

          P.S: I don't argue, I just state the facts.

                      Eldar was the subject of the comment because he's always been wrong SINCE Nokia cut him off. Microsoft makes more money from Android licenses than WP8, so they're coasting on easy street right now. That guy gets all the headlines because Microsoft and Nokia's biggest next batch of news will be how they brand the new devices post Lumia, that's a while away.

                      As a Lumia 920 owner I'm frequently frustrated by the lack of support from MSFT for their own devices and only Nokia has saved the platform as a result of their own crises. The only reason I don't switch is because I had really bad experience on Android (phone bricked after 1 days normal use) and I don't like the conformity of IOS or iPhone.

                      Hope this helps, as a disrespected commenter it pays not to have an inflated opinion of one's self. Try it sometime, you might like it.

                        Anonymous, the day you actually get an identity is the day people will care about what you say. I'm a well-respected blogger and I actually have an I.Q level. GSA arena is a website where inelligent people come to view and comment on what's going on in the tech world. Oh and thank you to those who VALUE my opinion as I VALUE theirs.

                          Eldars at it again, spouting absolute rubbish as usual. Please don't list this mans inane ramblings as fact, Nokia cut him off in 2007 and he's been clutching at straws ever since.

                                    Microsoft is pathetic. Talk about being greedy. Android has already taken the big chunk of the pie, so now the rest are frantically trying to get a taste of the same success. Not that android is much of a success but then again, performance and simplicity was never something Google was ever good at. As for Apple, I'm not surprised that the iPhone 5s has outsold phones like the HTC One, LG G2, Xperia Z1 and the Galaxy note 3 and S4. Most people wouldn't know the meaning of innovation if they were given a dictionary. Android and the FanDroids are lame. I.O.S and the iSheep are predictable and unoriginal. Blackberry and the Blackberry's are dying tediously. Microsoft and the Windows are just so dull and unsophisticated. I hope consumers and tech geeks will wake up soon and realise that their precious iPhone is really just like the 1980's. It was great, it was fun. Unfortunately it didn't last long and it just became stale. As for Samsung, I advise their management to stop approving what they call "humanly" features which nobody cares about unless they actually work and start working on that ugly design. HTC management, please concentrate on MARKETING your products on like TV instead of expecting us to see it at the back of the store its being sold in. Sony, leave the waterproofing and camera technology and start focusing on the internal specifications.

Samsung still (obviously) prefers to waste all their resourse in their next flagship phone which has android, not WP8. Microsoft wants to change that.
