The Note 2 is great for everything. The screen is fantastic, the battery lasts all day, and the pen has helped me remember so many things I may have for gotten if I had not used s note.
I came from an iPhone 4 and was starting to get iOS fatigue. Windows Phone is a much more functional, if a little less polished, OS. Windows Phone UI is simple and intuitive and fun. As for Nokia's hardware I love it. You can call it heavy, but I think substantial is a better description. The Lumia 920 looks slick, too. Takes awesome pics in low light with or without the flash. Love Nokia Music, just waiting for Music+. Maps are awesome. Sure it's it doesn't have every app, but it has most of the ones I need and most of the ones that are missing are coming soon. Oh and in case you're worried about syncing stuff with iTunes, don't. There's a Windows Phone app for Mac OSX, so you can sync your music directly. All in all, I'm glad I made the switch. I'm still a Mac guy for everything but my phone.
The battery lasts a little bit less then one day with normal use like any other smartphone I've owned. Sometimes is hard to manipulate, but not that much. The screen sharpness and colors are GREAT! The only thing I complaint about the international version is the RAM, they should have put 2GB on all models because the system takes almost 80% of the 1GB it has and sometimes when you move between apps, they are closed. Besides that is the best phone. (Sorry for any mistakes).
<p>The WP 8X by HTC is no doubt an amazing device. First things first, I am not here to criticize the Windows Phone 8 Operating system, just the phone itself The device has everything you need, a great screen (which for me is the perfect size), decent battery life (It always gets me through a day), fast processor (I am never left waiting for the phone to catch up, it always flows along right with me), a great camera that's all you'll ever need from a smartphone and a beautiful design that attracts plenty of attention As mentioned before, the screen is of very high quality, everything looks great and it is the perfect size for me, out of all other screen sizes. From 3.5'' to 4.8'' , 4.3'' is the best mix of usability and readability, i never feel it is too big or too small. The glass is also very durable, after a trip into a rusty, old metal mechanical couch, the phone escaped with very minor damage while any regular phone (without gorilla glass) would probably have smashed to bits in there. The battery on this device is comparably small but the OS is very efficient and the (relatively) smaller screen and slower processor are enough to power the device without draining the battery. I easily get through a day with moderate use and 20% or more left to spare The processor isn't the fastest (with two cores, many high end smartphones are running of four cores now) but the phone doesn't need them. The experience is snappy and fluid all around, I have no complaint's with speed or loading times. Nowadays it seems everyone is making the switch from a digital camera to their smartphone camera. The camera on the 8X won't beat out the competition but it will take photos just as nice. The camera is comparable to that of most smartphones taking relatively crisp and bright shots. The front camera makes all the difference, coming from just about any smartphone you will be thrilled with the front camera on the 8X, very wide angle and detailed pictures. I love having the physical button on the side that launches the camera from anywhere, even a locked phone, I never have to take my gloves off to snap a photo in winter again, everything can be done in a few seconds with two quick presses of the camera button. Lastly the design, the 8X is often regarded as being in the top 5 best ever smartphone designs (if not the very top). I have to agree that HTC did a marvelous job with this phone. The materials feel premium and the curvature make it very comfortable to hold and have the effect that the phone is much thinner than it really is. The design is an attention hog but there are a few downsides. The buttons (especially power, sleep/wake) is a little to flush with the body, making it difficult to locate and press in one try, if there was one this I could change about this phone, i would put the button on the side and have it stick out a bit more. Overall the Windows Phone 8X is a winner in my book, if the only complaint you have is the button being a bit hard to push, then you obviously have a winner in your hands</p>
really belive many people are voting for this now that there is a JB
I am in love with my Lumia. There are so many great phones today that it has become a problem to choose one. But the top WP8 phone is the choice by both my brain and my heart. If I were a bit geekier, I might have gone with Android; and if I didn't have to work I might have gone with iPhone. But this is my phone. It's for a practical man with a taste. I hesitated when Lumia 800 came out, knowing that it would be incompatible with WP8. Now Lumia 920 is such an attractive package. I don't think I'll change my phone anytime soon, although I do hope that there would be some nice updates from both Microsoft and Nokia to make this phone even better.
This is the best phone I've ever used.
To start of with,this phone has a brilliant display.
I was using GS3 for 4 months and I got this phone last week.I fell in love with this phone instantly.
Battery is not that bad and easily I can get through the day.I think carriers and manufacturers should stop customizing the phone because there is nothing compared to stock.
Simply the best.
Hasta ahora el mejor smarthphone que he tenido, interfaz rápida y agradable. La pantalla es increíble, la cámara cumple, el tamaño es ideal, es demasiado cómodo con una construcción solida como ya nos tiene acostumbrados HTC.
The led light is wonderful. I love the jelly bean update.
it really is The best phonee
this Device is a Amazing phone one of the best of 2012 and one of the best of 2013 so far it can still compete with the top phone on the market due to its advanced and innovative features. Definitely a phone to keep in mind if you have Verizon
This is one of the best phones i have had. Better than GS3 and GN2 definitely has a fight.
Solid phone,smooth and fluent in apps and power. Great Iphone replacement for anyone. Samsung on top of it s game.
Undoutadely.. The best smartphone wwill be... untill the arrival of S4... Htc M7 cud b a competitior... W8ing.
I love this phone. I got it because of its battery, but I love the sound, when playing music. I love the sharpness of the screen. It was easy to upgrade to the Jelly Bean OS, and the voice assistance is awesome! Great, great phone!
Apple does it better every time you see it. Great design, feel, specs and what else you want in a smartphone!
