It´s a good OS but I think that nokia design department is the laziest in all the company, sorry to say this but all Lumias look almost the same with the obvious exception of the 920

You´re right they´re kind the same also, but I recently bought a Lumia 505 por emergency (it´s very cheap) and a friend of mine bought a lumia 800, not knowing the internals (obviusly the 800 is way better phone) it´s exactly the same phone

It's a design language; note how phones made by Samsung, Apple, LG, HTC - their own phones look similar to each other. One S and One X were similar; and many designs has been ripped off the Galaxy S3 - Galaxy Grand, S3 mini, and so on. I dont have a problem with repeated/similar designs, but for Samsung's case their phone design is definitely on the boring side and hence i dont want to see the same design from them. But i really do like HTC and Nokia's design that i dont mind them being recycled again.

That photo looks like a man with a fetish of some sort molesting a phone.
Anyway, this guy has been doing a good job with designing Nokia phones...

Guy looks odd, I'll give you that. Still, he's our pretty boy, making them fancy rectangles into sharp look'n works of art. I have no problem with it long as he's not trying to touch my power supply, comprende?
3hit, get yo minds outta da gutter!

Nokia needs more color, its slowly getting repetitive

Better than Black and White, lets all be grateful that we have this larger array of colours to choose from! :D

with all due respect i think nokia offers the widest arrays of colours out of any phone maker and how's it repetetive when today you can get yellow nest year you can get cyan adn etc... ??

Its repetitive because its the same color on every Lumia phones. 920, 820, 720, 620, 520. All have the same (or similar) array of colors. Even their low-end Symbian are starting to have these colors.

name me 1 phone that gives 5 colors on launch. (except S3, xperia S)
-and i ask you if having 5 colors to choose from is a bad thing? thats 5. including the common black and white colors.

Nokia 620's inspiration : a book named "How to make phone with $25 and sell it for $250" especially considering MS is paying billions to nokia for making windows phones

All of the Lumia's are aethestically pleasing given the choice of colors. Sets itself apart from current designs from other phone manufactures. This guy is probably sitting with some fat pockets right now. Good job on his part.
