Lately, I have been using the HTC One X, One S, and Samsung Galaxy Note. These devices have fantastic hardware specifications and they overwhelmed me a bit so I was having second thoughts about my HTC Radar 4G and the Windows Phone platform. I then listened to Joshua Topolsky on The Vergecast and read a few articles online questioning the long term success of Windows Phone and asking if Microsoft should just give up on the smartphone market. I thus felt the need to put together another pro-Windows Phone blog post after putting my SIM back into my HTC Radar 4G and realizing Windows Phone really is my preferred smartphone platform and I can’t help but believe it truly is the third viable modern platform.
The Verge Lumia 900 review and Windows Phone software
I see there are over 2500 comments on Joshua’s Nokia Lumia 900 review
and it is clear that there are some passionate smartphone users out
there. I found the review to be very well written and Joshua was clear
that the design of the Lumia 900 is fantastic. Great design definitely
has a place in the smartphone market.
I completely agree with Joshua that Nokia dropped the ball with the
camera on the Lumia 900. They had the opportunity to blow us away with a
high quality camera, but it looks like HTC beat Nokia with their Titan II camera in a game that Nokia should have won easily.
