Windows Phone 8 (Nokia 920)


Ok we all know about Apple and Android right? Well it's been awhile but Windows Phones are slowly getting better and with the launch of the new Nokia 920 I think we finally have some competition. Let break down the specs of this new Phone. It sports a 4.5 inch Pure Motion HD+ screen which is said to not have any problems viewing the screen outside in the sunlight. Snap Dragon S4 dual core processor running at 1.5 Ghz,1 Gig of RAM, 8.7 megapixel front facing camera with a Carl Zeiss lens with some great optical image stablization. Screen resolution of 1280 x 768, comes with 32 GB internal with a expandable micro SD card slot and 7GB of SkyDrive. 2000mAh battery and NFC (Near Field Communication. Super sensitive touch which will allow you to touch the display with gloves on (great for the ones of us that have to wear gloves part of the year :-( ), they will have offline maps, City Lens which is an augmented reality application So those are most of the specs with alot more in the software which shows alot of cool features check out videos of this phone on you tube and it will make you think. it comes in a few different colors and will be able to do wireless charging (which is awesome in my mind) just drop on the pad and its charging, no more plugging in the phone when going to bed. NFC to connect with some great accessories like speaker docks. If you are an Xbox 360 user there are a number of great new features in the pipeline to link these two devices together not to mention keep track of your xbox avatar and chat. Needless to say i there are a few things on this list that Apple does not have and Windows is cathing up with Android while trying to be different (you know not being sued by the rival company). So for all those of you that are bored with running the same OS for the past few years and want to try something new i think now is a great time to try Windows phone with this new Nokia device. So for all the mobile users out there what band wagon are you jumping on??
