    AnonD-126666, 19 Mar 2013@TheApprentice and @SuperNexus and other users. I wanted t... moreI know your concern.
    You want to buy a phone for long period.
    WP8 is quite different from WP7 as apprentice said.
    There will be no problem regarding apps compatibility with WP8 in near future.
    I think all apps till 2015(atleast) will support your device L720. Because L720 will get update till mid 2014.

    So, on app part you should not worry.

    and about surface phone apprentice already given the best example of Nexus.
    If Microsoft do that then it will not be good for their OS. Competition is very tough in smartphone OS and they are not foolish to do mistake like this. Alone Surface phone is not enough for Window Phone. If that was the case then the company like Nokia never go with Window Phone in a first place.
    Microsoft is a software company not a hardware company.So, don't worry about Surface phone.

    and Keep digging more, until you satisfied and we are also happy if get some new info.

      Even google has their Nexus Line Up, does that mean google doesn't pay attention to other manufacturers?

        @TheApprentice and @SuperNexus and other users.
        I wanted to share somethings.as you might already know that I am willing to buy a lumia 720 so I started searching information on windows phone.as I was searching I came to know about the Microsoft statement as I mentioned earlier. and I was shocked to hear it but that's alright as android phones also don't have updates or have updates for duration a period of 6 months gap. the point to mention is that most of the android apps work on all android phones no matter what the version of the apps it was developed or the version of android the phone is running.that's alright I don't care of the updates but I do care about the apps(to let u know that i'm not a gamer that loves gaming but do love social network apps as u may also).so I did research on apps and I reached a nokia America site.i am talking about 19 march 2013.i saw that most of the application works with windows 7, 7.5 ,8.to remove the confusion whenever you click on a particular app it gives you the details about the app and which is where I found "works with" section as mentioned above which tells you the compatible windows os version on which the app can work.to tell you there are some new apps that do not support windows 7, 7.5. this might also become the case with windows os 8 version where in near future you would have app but not compatible with the windows os 8.so I'm afraid. to give u more bad news Microsoft is launching it's phones called surface phones with same windows os.so it means microsoft will concentrate more on their phone than other company phones.
        that's why I require your opinion on lumia phones app compatibility. I do have grand and xperia l options but I want lumia because it stands out and it's new.my requirements are only social networking.thanks for reading.

          AnonD-41271, 19 Mar 2013I won't even blame the manufacturer's with their custom lau... moreYea! Android has its own advantage and disadvantage.

          Atleast we are sure that L620 will get update and also have an idea when L620 get update(I mean L620 will get as soon as it release unlike Android[except Nexus Series]).

          Totally agree with you on last line. I also want to experience different OS.
          I'll defiantly buy Sailfish Jolla phone but not sure about Web OS because Web OS is not practical in India because hi-speed internet is still very costly.But Who knows what happen in future.

              SuperNexus, 19 Mar 2013Yes! in Android update is a problem. But again its not And... moreI won't even blame the manufacturer's with their custom launchers and so many devices to test, plus the carriers stuff it way too a long procedure no matter how much hurry they make, and this is only the half story, cause they still have to come up with new devices including the Flagship with new features/innovations. So its a complete maze of obstacles

              On the other hand WP's UI is going to be same at least for next 2-3 major releases. So updates will be faster come as it will only include the testing part.

              Yes, I am also not putting my entire money on the unofficial info, but the fact that 620 will get at least security updates for 2 years is enough for me.

              Anyways will be changing after that, who knows after 2 years I might buy a Sailfish or a firefox device.

                AnonD-41271, 19 Mar 2013Yes, its 18 months, sorry my bad Again I would like to s... moreYes! in Android update is a problem.
                But again its not Android fault its manufacturer who is creating this problem.

                and I hope we'll get WP9.
                But my hopes aren't high because I still have my doubts until Microsoft officially announce that.
                May be only high end phone(L920) will get WP9 and phone like L620 will get something like WP8.5.

                But still I'll say that we can not predict the future and neither trust unofficial info.

                  SuperNexus, 19 Mar 2013Hello! App I am not sure that WP8 will get 2 years suppo... moreYes, its 18 months, sorry my bad

                  Again I would like to stress that Wp7 was a complete different story ad WP8 is different.

                  Apple has shown that even the lower end hardware can be updated to newer versions to a long time (iPhone 3g)

                  Plus doing it twice will severly hurt MS and Nokia. Updates and rate of update roll out is one of the major weakness of Android. MS would really like to bank in on that. Specially when it comes to lower end droids

                  I got my info from WPCentral and these guys are really better in understanding MS and WP. While they state that all the WP8 devices will get WP9 treatment. But there is one line we are confused about. That is this
                  "Update availability will also vary by country, region, and hardware capabilities" Notice the hardware capabilities part. Now we are not sure if this was targeted at WP8 customers or WP7. Since WP7's hardware was not even fit to run Skype, but WP8's hardware is fit to run 99% of the apps and games.

                  The selling point of WP is that its lightweight and resource friendly if MS wants to keep it going then they will have to support our devices just to prove their point.

                  All in all fingers crossed, hoping for the best.

                    U cleared my big confusion........that means i can also insert my current nokia e63 microsd in lumia720(after buying) directly......with no data loss.......

                      [deleted post]I think you should wait for Sony Xperia L.(New is better)

                      Xperia P is old with poor battery backup and L620 is new but still has bad battery backup.

                      Xperia L battery is very good and it will be updated to Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie.

                      I don't know on what basis you want to select between Xperia P and L620.
                      If you want a right answer you should post what are the main features or which function you used most in a smartphone.

                      Window Phone 8 is good for normal users who want simple user interface phone and only do calling, messaging, browsing but not use too much apps or those who want experience something new.


                      Its not like Android is bad in that feature but it is little more complicated than Window Phone 8(thats what users say).
                      But on a plus point you have lots of apps/games and there are many games and apps which are free only on Android but paid in Window Phone & iOS.

                            I am not sure that WP8 will get 2 years support.
                            It is 18 months(1.5 year) or till July 2014.

                            and
                            I am also not sure that we will get Window Phone 9 because there is no official info from Microsoft for that.(Not I know, but if you know any you can share with us)
                            May be our update is like Window Phone 8.5 or something.
                            Because I think Microsoft updates distribution are more organise like WP7.5 updated to WP7.8 but not WP8.
                            Same WP8 will get WP8.x not WP9.
                            It doesn't fit if WP8 updated to WP9 not atleast in Microsoft way, isn't it?

                              I know Window Phone feel totally different from Android and that is why I purchase L620.

                                      Ans-No one can answer that it may or may not support.
                                      But I don't know why you bother that. Are you planning to use Window Phone 8 for next 3-5 years?
                                      No OS will get support for this much year.

                                      I think there will be no problem of new apps support for next 2 years in Window Phone 8. After that it depend on app developers.
