i do not blame you since nokia / M$ has nothing to brag about except the obvious :tongue:
and more than 90% of your posts in this thread are about nokia's camera.

lets move on to something different :)
I never posted anything about nokia here buddy, I do post that in nokia thread . Do you expect me to post about launchers , and skins in a nokia , Microsoft thread ?

I don't use android so I don't fancy in keeping the latest news on launchers , and coustimizations which seem to interest you , why don't you post something non those line for us ?

Well here is something for you to read something of a change

It looks like users of the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S4 that ships with the company’s powerful Exynos 5 Octa ARM processors are bemoaning the undocumented feature of the handset, mockingly referred to as ‘S Lag’ where the flagship phone would just stall. In early benchmarks, we’ve read that the Exynos 5 Octa is a speedy and efficient processor that’s powerful and bests the HTC One, a phone that ships with the same Snapdragon 600 processor made by rival Qualcomm that’s used by Samsung in the U.S. and U.K. editions of the Galaxy S4. Elsewhere in the world, though, Samsung is using the more powerful Exynos 5 Octa, which sounds good on paper and in theory.

However, it seems that early adopters of the Exynos 5 Octa-equipped Galaxy S4 are turning to forums and social media to complain about the processor’s lag when switching between tasks. Phonedog‘s Aaron Baker has pointed this out in one of his video reviews of the phone when comparing the international and the U.S. versions, though Baker says it’s mostly not as bad as it sounds.

One Twitter user, Ramon Trotman, took to Twitter to complain about the lag.



“Samsung forgot to market it’s most prominent feature, S Lag,” Trotman says. “The feature that makes your 8 core 2 week old phone lag while doing nothing”


Considering the overall zippy performance of the Exynos processor, this news is really surprising given that benchmarks show that the Exynos beats out rivals.

When consumers in the U.S. and U.K. were concerned that they may have gotten the short end of the stick with the Snapdragon 600-equipped Galaxy S4 variants, Samsung head J.K. Shin told users that most people won’t notice the difference between the two CPUs and that in the end it doesn’t really matter. Shin defended his company’s decision saying that it was a supply issue, noting that the company couldn’t produce enough of its own Exynos 5 Octa chips for the global Galaxy S4 roll out, so it relied on Qualcomm in select regions to provide processing power.

Given outcries of lag–which can be noticeable when launching the camera or switching between apps–it looks like the U.S. and the U.K. lucked out with what appears to be a better experience right now.

Hopefully, a future software update will remedy the issue on the international Galaxy S4 and any lags or speed problems will get rectified.

This isn’t the first issue that’s plaguing the latest round flagship releases. We’ve recently discovered that there be an Antennagate issue with the rival HTC One.

lol, you are comparing apples with oranges.

S3 was the flagship not so long ago, 720 is a mid ranged handset which got the hype here coz of raja. even if the phone has issues, raja wont never post any.
so i do not understand why you downgraded yourself by buying this handset.
my 1st line was "you are comparing apples with oranges"

wrt my other lines, i still maintain what i wrote. i can bet my **** that every phone owner faces some issue or not irrespective of the brand. some get highlighted more and some don't, nothing is perfect my friend.
for your consideration other lumia owners are saying this-->

Well as till today havent faced any lag with scrolling with 720, its butter smooth as always.
my mom's 520 has very minute lag for fraction of a second after hardcore intense gaming. but otherwise there is no problem with the phone. Mom is loving it a lot. actually partially that is down due the fact she had a crappy 2630 before but still. She loves the read-out message feature because now she is happy she doesnt have to take out her glasses to read a text or anything. :)

True, but I over expected the camera. :3
And I never said the phone is bad, it is perfect for my mom, and perfect decision I made. Lighter, slimmer, better looker, better camera, unibody gets all its disadvantages correct.
But still I would say, although its better in low light than the S3, S3 is better in day light.
The pics took with the Lumia is like its edited. [???]
