It's a tie! After weeks at number two, the Nokia Lumia 920 ended this week in a tie with the Samsung Galaxy S III. But since the Lumia 920 has been second for weeks, we decided to feature it today and highlight the Samsung Galaxy S III tomorrow.
"After 6 weeks still my primary device" By DIGITALM0NKEYS on January 22, 2013
I work for a digital agency and personally own a Note II, an iPhone 5, a Nexus 4 and have played extensively with the GS III. I've also used each of the devices exclusively for at least a week. I keep coming back to the Lumia because of subtle differences that make it just a better overall experience for me. I've also make comparisons like speaker quality, and call quality, photo quality and HTML email display from one phone to another to get a balanced opinion.
Overall I find the Lumia refreshing and edging the others on most of the things I do everyday. I will admit that I also carry the Nexus 4 for navigation, my bank app and flipboard. I find no compelling reason to carry the Note II and its been crashing quite frequently of late.
