Apple iPhone 5s vs. LG G2 vs. Nokia Lumia 1020: War of the worlds

8 October 2013
You know what they say – three is a crowd. On a second thought though, no one here’s got romance on their mind. The three-horse race has had its highs and lows, but it’s the playoffs and we got a front-row seat. Each phone here will look...

        In terms of productivity I think the nokia is a clear winner with its images, office, xbox, and navigation, but in terms of flexibility I will vote to the android os in the LG, and I may vote to the 5S in terms of stability and user interface quick response, other than these points can be forgotten ... Oh yes ... The three heros can do the most of them!

How limited and brainwashed do you have to be to think that simply because a phone has the latest chipset it is the best? Wake up, android is a resource hog and needs the latest chipset to even run more or less smoothly. ios is too limited and windows phone is the perfect balance. Android is a mess filled with features that 99% of people don't use, drains battery like there is no tomorrow and has viruses/worms

              I don't know but why doesn't gsmarena add something about how long to charge the battery till full? I find the more bigger battery capacity the longer it will need to charge till full and that wasn't very pleasant to me..

                  Surely OIS on the 1020 is a big differentiator on the video test? You've not mentioned it.

                    Hi friends i was using samsung Note2 but i was facing lots of problem and it was constantly hanging,so i did a buy back and purchased a lumia 925, i was one of the first customer to buy this, i am really very happy with microsoft OS - in terms of camera, music, display, xbox games, wireless charging,and the main thing is nokia navigation or maps,so i prefer a Windows phone over all the other brands

                    thanks,

                                        First try to understand difference between OS and missing feature. Then talk about OS issues here.
                                        Second by your comment i can surely say you never ever visited WP store and never owned WP8 device. yXplayer available on WP and supports all codec same as Android and you know it works great on Lumia 925 compared to similar hardware Android phone :D

                                        Android is best no doubt there in terms of available features but that doesn't mean rest all garbage. WP8 just one year old and still it not require project butter like PROJECT for smooth operation. Compare Android, WP and iOS on similar hardware before claiming lag is non-issue on Android :P

                                        Many are normal users who want to use multimedia features on their smart phones and also want to download song freely on their Nokia Music app :)
                                        Also few are business users who want to configure their corporate sharepoint server to their Phone and view/edit their office docs on the go.
                                        Also some college guys(+some more) who want to customize their home screen in boring lectures, etc etc

                                        See not every usecase supported by Android and so WP and so iOS. So different choice needed and that's the only way for healthy competition.

                                        You like Android use it, share your opinions but don't ridicule others based on your usage patterns and blah blah. I hope this enough for today :P
