the only grrat thing to have wp8 phone is the ability to update your phone in all range , from low end to high end, i have L620, i love the update, its smoother now with new animations, and the features although not on par with droid and ios, atleast its heading in the right direction, and oh, i heard we will be recieving 8.2 too :) no need to buy a new phone in a few months :)

I'm still puzzled we still call WP a smartphone OS since I can not even open and read a document without uploading to Skydrive.

WP 8.1
Best part is its free and for all From 520 to 1520.
Second, Cortana smarter than Google Now and S Voice and more human than Siri of Apple.
Third, cosmetic changes are cool but usability and OS had also been revived from inside which will definitely notch its performance up to another level.
last and most important, if u want to enjoy flexibility and customisation option like ANDROID with out compromising on security Like iOS and BB10 then Go for WP 8.1 without burning a hole, oops I mean without burning ur whole pocket.

This time Nokia and Microsoft really listen to us. Windows Phone is going to be something very big one day when their only major problem (lack of app in store) is being solved in next few years.
Good luck Nokia/Microsoft.

Point by point:
Devs can configure their apps to allow pining in Action Center.
Wallpaper has parallax scrolling.
Quiet Hours, if placed in AC, can be toggled when needed.
Better than Google Now in that they're not using your info to place targeted ads in your mail and search results.
Could always go to callers'/messengers' contact pages simply by tapping their names.
Typing record set on low-end Lumia 520, breast high-end Galaxy S4 by 8 seconds.
Wi-Fi Sense works with Cortana. If you've been on trip with Wi-Fi turned off, when you reached home Cortana would know it is a place where you normally connect to Wi-Fi and turn on your Wi-Fi.
Lastly, you could always pin web pages to the start screen on Windows Phone. It may not have updated dynamically (can't remember), but you could pin the page.

What a great upgrade.
Seriously, the list of stuff missing really makes little difference. iOS and Android have got a serious competitor now. I hope MS do well with it.
