Nokia brings out the Lumia swag: the 920 is the one, not the HTC One
The HTC One is not just a great device all-around, it is also bold with its decision to include an UltraPixel Camera focusing on image quality instead of pixel count, and Nokia must have felt the heat. Shortly after the HTC One announcement, Nokia posted a typical smug tweet with Lumia 920 saying “One phone to rule them all.”

The Windows Phone 8 based Lumia 920 takes pride in its optical image stabilization and PureView camera for better low light performance, but those are areas in which HTC has brought huge improvements as well.

Of course, “One phone to rule them all” is a jab at the HTC One. Nokia has now adopted this somewhat arogant hot-headed attitude towards its rivals while the company itself is struggling to get traction with customers. Is this the right approach? What do you think?

Hey, and stare closely at the image, and you'd see Nokia used our own PhoneArena logo on the image!

Sorry nokia but I would rather get the true one from htc

15. tusshharish posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:37 30

the recent post of htc one on pa shows that even lumia 800 wins against this 'one'.......

64. SamsungFan posted on 20 Feb 2013, 06:56 3

Its Nokia Lumia to f*** htc and samsung will rule in 2013
With the one and galaxy s4

89. SamsungFan posted on 20 Feb 2013, 12:24

Wait and see yourself .2012 was a worst year for nokia 2013 will be even worse for them

107. dexter_jdr posted on 03 Mar 2013, 08:29

3. B3BLW29 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:25 30

After looking at samples from HTC one something, I would say FTW NOKIA YAY!!

65. SamsungFan posted on 20 Feb 2013, 07:01 5

Looks like there is more nokia fans online. A lots of thumb downs by those fools who don't know anything about innovations

73. bhavic posted on 20 Feb 2013, 08:27 14

A samsung fan talking about innovation !! LOL !!

76. SamsungFan posted on 20 Feb 2013, 09:38 1

Anyway samsung galaxy sells 10x more than lumias and lumias can never beat a samsung wait for galaxy s4 you'll see

77. dexter_jdr posted on 20 Feb 2013, 10:38 6

dear stupid person,

if people all over the world already converted to an android ecosystem or ios... then why dont fans come here and counter our dislikes since you believe that android phones (samsung,sony, htc,lg,huawei,alcatel etc) can overpower 1 company named nokia ?

78. SamsungFan posted on 20 Feb 2013, 10:55 2

You are the real fool because you can't just compare this post. If nokia was good then they should have good sales and profits which nokia doesn't have
Soon nokia will fall. Wait for galaxy s4 and iphone 5s
Nokia will be a big zero in front of them you fool

103. dexter_jdr posted on 21 Feb 2013, 00:30 3

oh really? if s4 or 5s comes out, then we will wait for lumia 930, 830, 630 etc. HA! you fool you cant beat me

now your previous comment is now invalid

and sales isnt everything if phonearena already crowned 920 as best smartphone

104. SamsungFan posted on 21 Feb 2013, 02:12

About 50% of the smartphones are made by samsung. Your f***ing nokia have nothing. .

106. dexter_jdr posted on 21 Feb 2013, 17:57 1

oh screw you hahahaha going out of topic.

go back in the kitchen.
-or more preferably, go back in making led screens

83. -box- posted on 20 Feb 2013, 11:24 5

Sales aren't everything.

If they were, we'd all be using iphones and driving Toyota corollas. *shudder*

Why is the most common phrase from androiders (and iphonies) "wait and see"? Whereas Nokia Winners are happy and excited by what they already have?

94. BitterTruth (unregistered) posted on 20 Feb 2013, 12:56 3

Common even motorola's vga camera is better than galaxy's 8mp :D

Nokia - a company which is struggling to get tranction these days and stands only with the help of fanboys

96. tashreef posted on 20 Feb 2013, 13:03 6

At least we support Nokia no matter what... because we know they are the real players in the game... No Android== RIP Samsung...

75. p5yb0rg (unregistered) posted on 20 Feb 2013, 09:17 4

Unfortunately Nokia chose Windows Phone as their OS but their hardware is the definition of quality

80. Muzhhur posted on 20 Feb 2013, 11:06

Ok nokia, u guys have great cameras and ill admit it but HTC one is just knew too judge and even if u guys win in cameras, HTC one is a beast all around I mean seriously HTC one kills every phone out know even the sony z and its the only competitor to the s4

9. B3BLW29 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:32 3

Dude what's with knew n know ? :D

12. yero789 (unregistered) posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:34 5

What?I don't really like Sony Xperia Z or ZL that much,because maximum screen size for me is 4.7",but I mean seriously?The ZL has it's advantages over HTC One,it has dragontrail glass on both sides,it's water and dust resistant,and all the way the phone looks beautiful.HTC One is a great handset too,but I hate HTC's boring design,all the phones look the same,and that makes me bored.But HTC One also has it's advantages over Sony Xperia Z,so both handsets are good :)

23. asingha94 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:46 15

adding giant screen,core & ram is not innovation...thatswhy i hate htc....nokia ftw

45. b1acktiger posted on 20 Feb 2013, 05:16 1

Could you please define the word innovation mean to you ? Since the NFC came out, hearing the phone needs to be plastic to make NFC Chips work. Now HTC comes with a solution. Camera is only the fancy thing in Lumia 920 nothing more and except that, nothing differentiates 920,8X,Ativ S.

52. No_Nonsense posted on 20 Feb 2013, 06:21 9

Um, the 920 has wireless charging (gimmick but differentiating nonetheless), a super-sensitive screen, Nokia music and Dolby equalizers. The 8x has a thinner body, tapered edges and amplitude chips. The Ativ has plastic made around to look like brushed aluminium. There, I answered it for you.

26. haseebzahid posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:55 2

just hope it runs one full day hahaha then come back and they will tell it will runs more thena a day but in reality those are lies most time they dont

32. rgxVOiD posted on 20 Feb 2013, 04:18 6

"On look, a new phone is out, it must be better than the older one and the best. Now the older one is s**t, useless and anyone who uses it is inferior to me"
- kids nowadays...
How exactly did the One kill Z? The fact that its newer or just your brainwashed brain say so? Oh wait...

97. tashreef posted on 20 Feb 2013, 13:06

will you mention what HTC One has got apart from UI like WP8 ...oh dual-speakers ... that's a real innovation orthe 1.7 GHz Dual-core processor ... or a ultrapixel camera.... for the name sake..

8. asingha94 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:31 20

ugly truth for htc lovers..but truth is truth!!even 2 years older n8 givers better image quality..nokia ftw!

22. alterecho posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:46 13

Thats true about the N8.

"the 920 is the one, not the HTC One".
Whose statement is this? I don't think thats a statement from Nokia itself.
As far as i know, Nokia respects its competition. Unlike certain company, that degrades potential customers, just because they are using its competitor's phone.

41. smartphone posted on 20 Feb 2013, 05:08 12

Actually recently HTC made fun of Nokia pureview technology by calling the number of megapixels useless.
Its just a reply and don't believe Phonearena they are baised against Nokia.
They didn't update the 920 camera update in recent camera test.

43. jsdechavez posted on 20 Feb 2013, 05:15 3

I think Nokia went for 38-41MP so as to put to good use their oversampling tech. No other phone camera takes better 5MP or 8MP than the 808 due to that.

53. No_Nonsense posted on 20 Feb 2013, 06:22 6

No other phone takes better pictures than the 808 (yet).

55. asingha94 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 06:31 1

yes brother.but they dont use to review its camera comparing with other phones.because it has symbian & obviously not from samdog or htc!

69. eanpreou posted on 20 Feb 2013, 07:47 1

not exactly. They don't use 808 for camera comparisons because it's way superior to the competition. They themselves commended 808 for its camera prowess they'd be a fool to ignore that.

92. BitterTruth (unregistered) posted on 20 Feb 2013, 12:52

They are iSheep.
Johhhhhhnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn isheep.

24. Sarajevo posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:48 6

Yeah, I wanted to write it here, but you were faster :) Exactly...

11. N-fanboy posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:34 12

Nokia FTW!

17. samystic posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:41 6

1) bad image editing (look at incomplete cutting of image with white corners left out)
2) image copied from PhoneArena
3) targeting 'competition'

not good Nokia... it is called arrogance!

coming from a Nokia fan... and BTW where is TROLL these days... i guess he must be filling butthurt form these days OR may be who is thumbing down everybody here... guess it is his job

85. -box- posted on 20 Feb 2013, 11:34

I doubt Nokia did it themselves. Typically someone makes a picture and Nokia reposts it, like the one if a SWAT team member using an old Nokia phone to break down a door (the phone image was superimposed over the battering ram)

18. amiroo posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:42 7

sorry nokia but one can beat u..

25. Sarajevo posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:52 8

There is no inovation at HTC. Only try, aims of inovation. UltraPixel is nothing revolutionary...

27. haseebzahid posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:58 12

HTC been coping nokia for a year now first in wp8 design now in camera tech at some little level of suspension idea so its another ripoff of nokia tech

29. asingha94 posted on 20 Feb 2013, 04:06 9

htc just want to grab peoples attention by saying ultrapixel or whatever..adding giant screen,core & ram is not innovation...thatswhy i hate htc,samsung.within every 2 or 3 weeks they release phone.nothing new except more ram or core or screen size..nokia ftw

84. -box- posted on 20 Feb 2013, 11:31 1

More like "no One can best you"!

19. idroidequis posted on 20 Feb 2013, 03:43 4

Nokia is becoming that company... Please just let you phones do that talking. Your not helping yourself here. One of these days they are gonna say something they will regret on twitter (we know its gonna happen they all do it) and your gonna apologize. For a company that was and is still on the edge they sure do talk big. I really have yet to see one person on the street pull out a lumia since the 900.

57. shikroi posted on 20 Feb 2013, 06:33 6

If you ask me their phones have been doing the talking. They promised a good low light camera, they delivered. They promised the best cam on a phone they delivered. They promised super sensitive touch, higher refresh rates and better out door visibility and they delivered. They promised a solid good looking phone and they delivered. And they will likely deliver more again in a few days and people like you will reiterate the same statement 2 months later.

"I really have yet to see one person on the street pull out a lumia since the 900."

Are you making an argument based on popularity? Because that defeats your whole premise of them not delivering quality phones. Quality and popularity don't necessarily always go hand in hand just ask htc.

BTW I have seen a few lumias.

70. eanpreou posted on 20 Feb 2013, 08:05 1

It's amazing how people would react to something like this coming from Nokia yet there are other OEMs doing more s**t like this. And besides what harm will other OEMs get if Nokia proudly brand their product as the one as opposed to the others? Were they arrogant? Yes but who can blame them it's their freaking product but did they insult HTC like what HTC did when 808 and 920 came out? No. Like what shikroi said it's just "good compeition in good fun."
