    sony official, 12 Apr 20131. you are saying just opposite wp are not at all customisa... more1. WP has the most beautiful and intuitive UI.
    Live tiles updates, which looks cool.
    Also notification bar is coming in windows blue update.
    2. Lol dual core snapdragon S4 is optimized for WP8.
    it is butter smooth, unlike ur laggy droid. Asphalt 7 heat is playable in Lumia 520, which is smooth. It even play 1080p hd video. Try it in ur Xperia E. Xperia E has single core cortex A5 processor which cant even play or record 720pHD video. forget about gaming.
    3. more intertal memory means more smooth perfomance of apps and games. Nokia has 8GB internal memory. We can store most apps and games in internal memory, which will run smoothly. Even sony doesn,t claim Xperia e will support for 64GB microSD card. How could you claim that. Stupidity soo much.
    Xperia doensn't support USB OTG. so it can't support pendrives. stop telling lie or at least proove with facts.
    4. Xperia E runs on androiid 4.1 but not in android 4.2. so it's not the latest.
    5. lol. all phones get updated to 4.1????
    which phone??? name please` all se phones just get updated to 4.0.(witH having lots of issues). check it in sony forum yourself).

    Nokia did release update wp 7.8 for Lumia 800 and 710. WP 8 is based on another kernal, which is Windows NT. So those old phones didn't get WP8.
    6. It's just the name project butter. not in functioning. even Galaxy S3 with jeall bean lag itself. xperia E??? HAHAHAHA
    7.LOOK HOW MUCH MALWARE.
    http://www.neowin.net/news/trend-micro-claims-1-in-10-android-apps-are-malware
    WP IS THE MOST SECURE AND STABLE OS. SO IT DOESN'T NEED ANTIVIRUS NOW.
    Istagram is coming in May. Also an alternative app intagraph was released, which upload photos to instagram. Temple run will get update in future just like asphalt 7 for playable in 512 MB ram devices. r u blind?? angry birds is available there. wp have gravity guy 2. Does android have it?
    we support developers, that's we like to pay. Not like android fans who always use pirated apps and games.
    also lot of free apps and games are also available in WP store.
    Nokia lumia has better hardware than your cheap laggy buggy Xperia e. Better screen( larger in size, super sensitive, better screen resolution,better ppi), better camera, better looks, better build quality, better offline maps, better processor. So it justified it's price and 1000 times better than Xperia E.
    Conclusion: Nokia > Sony
    Nokia lumia 520>>>> Sony xperia e.

        How is Lumia 520 different than Lumia 620? Read to find out!
        There is the BIG question. 620 or 520? Let's see what you get by investing 3.5k more:-
        #Nokia Clear Black Screen ie, Extra Bright Screen to be readable Under sun, and with deep black, it gives better experience.
        #Front Facing VGA camera for Video calling needs
        #LED flash
        #Magnetometer (compass) sensor to use apps like Here Maps, Here City Lens, ets which uses compass to fing your location, and its really necessary if you gonna use Maps a lot.
        #Extra Loud Speaker
        #Secondary HAAC mic for noise cancellation while Calling, voice&video recording, Music playback.
        #Dolby Headphones Enhancements to give theater like feel while listening music on headphones.
        #Equalizer with 19 presets like Rock, pop, classical, bass etc.
        #Smaller screen with same resolution, that means denser ppi, and more clear and crisp screen. (If you want bigger screen, 520 is not that bad either in terms of ppi, but Lack of Clear Black is surely missed)
        #Toughned Glass with protection from scratches. (520 has just scratch proof layer, not that tough glass)
        #NFC, to use tap and share, tap and play, NFC tags, etc.
        #Though Battery is smaller in 620, but due to smaller screen, Clear black display and NO super sensitive touch, both will give almost similar backup.
        #Longer Nokia Music Unlimited Subscription.
        #An option to increase 620's durability by installing a Water-proof, dust proof back cover. Its not available for 520.
        That's surely worth the 3.5k bucks. If you are looking for a phone, which you gonna use for long term, then you should better buy 620, or if your pocket permits, then 720. I feel 520 is for those who changes phone every now and then, and for those who have Budget of 12k dot.
        So, I have said more than enough. Hopefully, you Liked my openion. Hint me by giving it a like.
        Having question regarding windows phone os/ this phone? you can ask directly to Nokia on twitter @NokiaHelps, they really give instant help. or ask me.

                            Somebody who's got the phone, how is the battery life? On normal use, does it last a full day? I want to get this phone, but battery life is the only thing that i'm worried about. If someone can shed more light on that, I'm surely going for one. Thanks.
