I haven’t had a problem with T-Mobiles indoor signal strength in about a decade. Back then it was just horrible. I couldn’t even make a call inside the house. This was around the time the first color SideKick came out, my first cell phone. It’s been all good here since about 2004-2005. I live between the DC and Baltimore Metro areas.

I actually like the 8X design the best as well. It’s just what it’s lacking compared to Nokia’s L920 that kept me away.

Higher screen resolution, better sunlight readability, Rich Audio Recording(8X recordings sound awful), Gyroscope included, Color doesn’t burn off when moving around in your pocket, Case is more durable, 32GB memory vs.16GB, Pure View, Dolby Audio Equalizer vs. Beats Audio, Wireless charging (Verizon 8X has this however), Nokia apps collection, timed exclusives & firmware updates.

I just couldn’t convince myself the 8X was the way to go.

You were expecting that 6 months after you bought it? O_o

Sony actually made a phone I would consider buying. This… has never happened before.

The phone is rumored to be roughly 8mm thick. It’s noticeably thinner than any other Lumia.

When you use the xbox 360 controller with a PC the HUD controls all switch over to a xbox like interface if the game supports it. Most PC modern games do.

No need. 920 takes better low light pictures than the One as is. Better day time pics as well since the One is stuck at 4MP. HTC can keep the gimmick to themselves.

The OS doesn’t support landscape. Ironically the apps do. It’s just not worth it unless you find switching between portrait and landscape by sliding out the keyboard when a app can support landscape to be intuitive. I don’t. Maybe MS will change that.

HTC Arrive owner.

By becoming a Android commodity in a market already saturated with brand recognition from Samsung, Sony, HTC, Motorola, LG and others maybe? Why be just another option when you can be king elsewhere and grow from there?

Can’t wait for the 16th That will be the day I can decide between the 928(Verizon) and the 925(T-Mobile).

The 928 seems to support the bands required for working on T-Mobiles HSPA+42 network and even LTE by supporting LTE band 4. Combined with Verizon’s mandatory unlock on all LTE enabled phones we may be able to get the best from both networks. Which is great for me since I could get the 928 and when I’m ready to switch over to T-mobile later I could do so with ease. Verizon likes to overcharge for their phones though. I have a suspicion the 928 will cost $600 compared to the $450 AT&T charged for the L920.

Which brings me to the L925. Rumors say this phone will be $400 to buy outright. IF that is the case and Verizon charges $550-600 for the L928 I can pay the $170 ETF fee i will have with Verizon, get the L925 and come out ahead ahead with cost savings on day one. Of course I would lose the ability to network hop if needed but, T-mobile is excellent where I live so I probably would not care much, at least until I start traveling. Maybe.

I’m excited for the possibilities. Go Nokia!

It doesn’t have Qi wireless charging built in. It’s supported through case shells.

That hole isn’t big enough. At least for me. Knowing that the hole is big enough for you does give me a very mild bit of satisfaction though. Thanks for the ego boost.

The uni-body is metal. The rear is poly-carbonate. Very HTC’ish.

Rumors are that EOS will use the SnapDragon 800. That SOC supports image processing over 50MP. 40MP Pureview is pretty much in the bag.
