They didn't participate in the show. The awards were only considered for devices that were part of it.

Woops, my bad, iPhone 5 was considered. Thought it was more like a trade show like CES which Apple doesn't usually participate in.

Probably because "Samsung" paid for the votes. :)

Lumia 920 is $450 unlocked, Galaxy S3 is $600. You can get either on third party retailers for around $400. The lumia is as good a phone or better than the s3. So how is that overpriced?

A good phone, yes. A great phone, yes. But a better phone than the S3? That's questionable. And don't forget the Nexus 4. That beats EVERYTHING in off contract price. It's upsetting that its unavailable so often...

Yes, you certainly are a fanboy. What you don't realize, is that your OPINION is just that. They teach kids in kindergarten the difference between fact and opinion these days. By the way, you must be talking about the original Galaxy line. Android 4.0 is EXTREMELY neat and clean, though more complex than other operating systems. Samsung also, through TouchWiz, added tons of INNOVATIVE, EXCLUSIVE features to the GS III. I agree that Samsung could make a more premium design, but that would raise the already expensive costs. The S3 is SOMETIMES beaten in YouTube comparisons, but Samsung has no control over that. Windows Phone is made to run on less and do more; Android isn't and Samsung can't change that. Besides, I believe that Samsung has proven its handset in sales. Perhaps the Lumia models are selling well, but that's because they have to. Samsung still has WAY outsold all Lumia models.

The Lumia 920 loses automatically because it has a 4.5 inch screen yet it is more difficult to handle than 5 inch monster like the Xperia Z, DNA, and butterfly. Heck, it is heavier than the 5.5 inch Note 2. Sorry, but that is a parameter that Nokia can't skimp on. It is like building a two door coupe that is heavier than a 4 wheel drive turck with heavy towing capacity. That just doesn't fly.

75. akki20892 posted on 27 Feb 2013, 15:43 1 4

right dude........s3 have nothing it have andoird and few features in..........but look at nokia lumia 920 all features, can easily beat s3......!!!

78. quesoesgrande posted on 27 Feb 2013, 22:39 3 1

Can you name those features, or will you trash a handset with a ridiculously higher number of sales than every Lumia combined with no evidence? I think the 920 is fantastic, but you are tarnishing its name by showing us its supporters are mindless fanboys. I have never owned a Samsung or Nokia, but I still respect both of their flagship devices. Also, find a grammar teacher. Both you and the other fanboy are further tarnishing the phone's name by making yourselves look ignorant.

Samsung will be the best ....always

You don't understand how trade shows work do you . . .

14. pratyushgaur.6 posted on 27 Feb 2013, 03:22 9 8

If only my friend, body construction won prizes...Apple would have grabbed all the prixes.

Samsung does best, what needs to be best. They succeed in whatever they do!!

Can't deny about that XD

85. quesoesgrande posted on 28 Feb 2013, 11:36 1 0

They're the Nokia fanboys upset that their 920 couldn't beat the best phone available. (I might make an exception for the Note 2.)

HTC will continue to fail for cheating the customers two years back, who always making a device that not just easily obsolete, but crap until the sudden death keep happen... Right now consumer has made smart choice to ditch away the HTC

29. tiara6918 posted on 27 Feb 2013, 04:12 5 1

Why?did your one x die all of a sudden?

50. ojdidit84 posted on 27 Feb 2013, 07:24 6 1

You have to admit. It's pretty funny watching WendayGarett go back and forth on his/her(?) opinion of smartphone manufacturers over the past month. Makes for a good laugh.

HTC sucks as always

80. quesoesgrande posted on 27 Feb 2013, 22:54 2 2

Why all the hate on HTC? I already dealt with the Lumia fanboys... I really don't want to ruin Samsung's day of triumph... I LOVE my Sensation. Especially with ICS, it's a great phone. I want the HTC One too. I really think HTC has a winner this year. I guess the S4 and Note3 are going to be winners too. Unless someone can give me a reason other than battery life as to why they instantly hate HTC at the first mention, I'm skipping Samsung this year.

81. quesoesgrande posted on 27 Feb 2013, 22:55 2 2

Again that is.

86. quesoesgrande posted on 28 Feb 2013, 11:39 2 1

I think it's funny how you all hide behind the dislike button. Instead of confronting me, showing your opinion, and possibly swaying me to believe it, you hide in fear behind the anonymous red dislike button. All your doing is proving I'm right...

Wtf? Troll? Please go away

28. darac posted on 27 Feb 2013, 04:09 10 1

A reasonable Nokia fan.
How refreshing :p

But the S3' win is not just because of the market dominance. Lumia 920 was also in the mix for the award, despite of only two months of availability

82. quesoesgrande posted on 27 Feb 2013, 22:58 2 1

I was thinking the same thing! Nice to see someone from the Nokia camp isn't a mindless fanboy! Thank you N-Fanboy. I find your name ironic, by the way! :p

87. quesoesgrande posted on 28 Feb 2013, 11:46 1 2

This is where we've taken things too far. Lets celebrate our victory, but lets not become fanboys in doing so. It's fine to point out that Apple didn't get any awards, but we do the same things the Lumia fanboys were towards the top of the page if we call Apple names. Please don't tarnish Samsung's great handset with fanboyism directed to it...

31. darac posted on 27 Feb 2013, 04:16 8 1

They were announced long ago:
iPhone 5, S3, Note 2, Nexus 4, Lumia 920 and Droid DNA

any idea what's second place ?

69. nasznjoka posted on 27 Feb 2013, 13:05 0 1

You see praveen??? this should be the main story but they dont give a sh******** cuz its not what they wanted. first of all every tech site announces their best sphne of the year what about iPHONEARENA?

88. quesoesgrande posted on 28 Feb 2013, 11:55 0 0

I'm sorry, but your an imbecile. "The Heading MAY be like this..." May means it could be that heading, but isn't definite. Besides, if the site posted ANYTHING like your heading, there would be no reason to read the article because it told you what you need to know in a shorter more efficient timeframe. To your second observation, it's easier to say eight of the top ten than it is to list very apple and non apple device out in that small tile.
