really sad to hear that. but i never really thought you'd go windows and go to android. so you know, was just a defective phone u got but still shouldn't happened. don't u supposed to test that in the store first? anyways, you should really try the K Zoom which almost I'm sure would beat any camera phone out there, even the 808. still, i like the windows 8.1 update on my L820 so give the 1020 another try

    Hallo guys, long time no talk, how are you?

    So, i finally decide to go further, didn't wanted to but... this happens when it 'itches':). So i decided to jump on windows phone platform, and this, only cause the next update (8.1) sound like it should be good enough for a Symbian power user that wants a good camera. And gives hopes that next updates will come quicker and will further improve the system. So i hold the 1020 and from the first day i'm very disappointed. The most important thing in this device DOES NOT WORK! Camera!!! Does not focus, it's like stuck to macro and nothing will make it change it's mind making blurry pics, very blurry pics. Battery one hour browsing took the battery from full to 20 percent. MAN i'm mad right now. Really mad, i Hate this kind of experience... Anyway, for what it's worth, the device is really fast. it' browser is almost as fast as my pc browser:)) if that makes any sense. This is the only good thing i found until now in it. I hope they will change it without making me to nervous about it and the next device will not give me this issues. Really a sad day for me, i just hate when i get something defective... If i was a troll, right now i would have allot of bad stuffs to talk about Nokia. Anyway, Nokia should improve it's quality control. This is just not good. A 500 euro device should never come out defective. This just make people thinking at other manufactures... frustrating, and it's Sunday to:)). Anyway, wish you all a good day.

And even if it could (though their is no chance cause of otg, fmtransmiter, camera and other small stuff) with this specs you will be heaving from a high end smart to an very low barely working android crap. There is another thing and that is mobile phones and system did not get that far like you could install any system in any mobile, there is almost no chance we will see such a thing. The only mobile system that was almost a pc system was maemo. Who, allot of n900 owners are saying that is a computer that is struggling to be a phone to. That could have a future if people were smart enough to use it. But... android is what is left of the revolution that was. Sad, but true.

My N8 performs well, I only reboot it once in several days "just in case" and I don't think you can pick up viruses. For internet I use Opera Mini and a few apps (CuteTube, Skype etc) and it's hard to get a virus like that. I only had a problem once when I installed a cracked app and it showed some notification floating on my display, and some Chinese bookmarks appeared in my default browser. :-)
