Nokia Lumia 1520 preview: Second encounter

15 November 2013
Lagging behind Android in hardware specs for what seemed like ages, WP8 managed to catch up in one fell swoop. With the Lumia 1520 at the spearhead, Nokia evened the playing field with a massive 1080p screen and a Snapdragon 800 chipset, then tilted it...

You made t... moreSeems to me that it would serve no purpose showing you what's what because you seem to have simply lost your way in trying to justify your comments and replies. The hatred and self-righteousness displayed by you and your replies have become quite obnoxious. I guess I shall not be replying to any of your posts hereafter. If i do, I believe there would be no difference between me and a die-hard soul trying to degrade the brand image of a product that is on the rise.

    PS:- oh and before i forget... I have spotted the location indicator "4QSR" blurting out similar misleading comments against NOKIA phones on so many other Nokia reviews by GSMArena.

Which is why all this seems off track. (including this reply to you)

        AnonD-199654, 20 Nov 2013at least its not the Samsung Galaxy Plastic with Android Cheap.Except that it is the same plastic with the same glossy finish....So try again??? Entirely beside the point of Poly Carbonate not being cheap...And you have obviously never touched a Droid in your life.

          You replied to a comment not to you and then a fanboy rant in response to something was not fanboy bashing. And by doing so prooved my point of fanboys bashing and dragging this on for no reason. So I called you out for your ignorant reply. Not playing your game because you only want to accept what you want and negate the rest and drag me in is not the same as negating anything. You ignore almost everything I type....At least I answer and relevantly reply to most of what you say.

          And since you are so fanboy hurt over it...You and everyone else who have in the past denied all claims of any imperfections.

            You made the rude claims off not reading and understanding what you were replying to. If you did read it you have very poor reading comprehension skills. If you were not making claims against the people on the topic you replied to you have very poor typing/writing skills and portrayed it in that way as such...
            And most of all....I have not made the mine is better than yours claim once nor implied it. I have been replying to such comments without doing so myself...You obviously have not read or understood one thing I said...Then turn around have have the audacity to say I'm not understanding.

Now I believe it is time for you to get back on track and post your opinion about the review as you seem to have lost your way in trying to prove the supremacy of your favorite. I will take the liberty of reiterating the fact that this is a review on the Lumia 1520 and the forum is open to YOUR opinions, simply due to the fact that you seem to be talking out of the point where you are constantly seen trying to convince people that WP is horrible. I see no difference in you and some of these religious conversion cults. Jeeze man, just look into your heart and ask yourself whether what you are doing is right or wrong

                            2. Can you stop the screen from rotation? - a primitive question, orientation lock is now available (shows how you are lagging behind in terms of knowledge regarding WP)
                            3. Are you happy with the message delivery report thread? (what's wrong with it??)
                            4. Are you happy with the auto correction while typing? (one of the best adaptive autocorrects I have ever used)
                            5. I know some of you might know how to answer this question, so do you know how to text one of your contacts and you can switch to a different number to text him? - why did u even ask this.. Looks like you only got to know about this yday... Otherwise why should you be making a huge deal out of it

However...Those kind of comments are not why I am here and it is you who seems to be stuck on constantly having something to prove....Keep trying.

                                        this is windows PHONE not windows MOBILE

                                        matter of fact... windows phone 8 cannot even be compared to windows phone 7

                                        they are completely different OS based on completely different kernels...

                                        that is like comparing windows 8.1 with windows to windows 1 or even windows 3.0 to windows 3.1...

                                        they might all bear the windows moniker but microsoft basically started over

                                        unlike android... and ios... windows PHONE 8 came out in 2012

                                        if you want to get technical... windows phone launched in 2010 as windows phone 7 and microsoft revamped it in 2012 with a new kernal
