Nokia lumia 920 is the most innovative phone as at now...though sg note 11 is running Android OS, window 8 is also a very good OS. So for me it's lumia 920.

I get your point tho. Well i'd advice you to go for a Note II if you wanna make maximum utility from a smartphone, but if you need a phone with a good camera, go for a lumia 920.

As a JJC, let it be known to you that what matters most aside from maybe OSwhen it to comes to utility and performance of a device, be it a laptop or smartphone is the RAM and CPU. Now the RAM of the Galaxy NoteII is 2GB, Which is two times the size of Lumia 920 of 1GB. While the CPU processor of Lumia 920 is Dual Core 1.5GHZ; (which is even lower than that of SGSIII), SG NoteII is Quad Core, 1.6GHZ. Windows phone 8 is no doubt a great OS especially when compared to Windows 7 and 7.5, but still is no match for Android's latest OS 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. Below are Specifications for both devices.

your post is incoherent which is not surprising since you're a techno phone proponent.

let me ask you a simple question, 'if techno is not using your head' does that mean techno sells you a phone that is more valuable than the money you pay for it?

I understand what he was trying to say. Twas a bit off scale. see oh, our threadowner here isnt working on a budget. Hes probbly got bout 100k to splurge on a beast of a fone which is fine. n3 is not in d class of these mutant monsters so oga threadowner, better get a samsung gal note2! Its one of tne hottest fones of our time. Lumia is ok. But lack of extensive apps will leave u bored faster than u can take a pic. Sgn2 is a device that will handle upcoming o.s after jellybean with ease! (jelly bean is currently the most sophisticated mobile o.s so do d math)

Re: Nokia Lumia 920 Vs Samsung Galaxy Note II by jmaine: 6:07pm On Aug 01, 2013
caukerzee: ...and still rated 3rd best OS behind android and iOS.

At a point in history the current towering market share statistics of Android and IOS were not significant.

I did like you to avoid been petty in bringing up such counterstrike.As a matter of fact every OS has its significant edge over each other and all are actively engaged in the race to either claim dominance or maintain it.

The Windows phone 8 adoption rate is increasing rapidly, thanks to the supreme OS optimization of the platform which makes low priced phones like the Lumia 520 deliver immeasurable pleasures to their owners . .

The low end Lumia devices is leading the charge to the future. Whoever captures the low end untapped market will be the undisputed kings tomorrow. Just be observant and you will notice the tilt

Give them credit for at least wrestling that 3rd spot from Blackberry, cool.
