For the last couple of months, the Nokia Lumia 900 has established itself as a viable competitor thanks to the combination of it stellar design and killer $100 on-contract price. But as we know all too well in the smartphone industry, there’s always a snake hiding behind the bushes waiting to attack. With that in mind, the Samsung Galaxy S III is undoubtedly ready for the challenge, as it’s undeniably one of the most highly anticipated smartphones out there...

It's hard to compare something that isn't same on the baseband (in this case is OS), the WP7 or ICS has its own advantages, and it'll guide the features or hardware specs for the phone surely.
The WP7 has limitation for its hardware, it lacks on single core, and non HD display,, but ICS stand up for HD ready and dual/quad core processor, and will make the phone manufactures design the phone on larger display..

most of the users like denied911 don't even know how to change fonts but they are yelling about customization, freedom, blablabla. yeah, google gives you a freedom. google=freedom?????:D

Lumia is for people who don't care about frikking customization. they want to have a phone which acts like a phone. Calls, messages, internet, stay in touch, camera and a decent battery life. And if windows (1,4 ghz single core) is as fluid as android (quad core...sick...to work properly it needs dual or quad core, it's pathetic) why should I beg for something more???? To make it look better on a paper?

Well, f..k'em both and get an iPhone 5 if you ask me. Anyway, if I have to choose I'd take the Nokia. And by the way PA, please, please stop THINKING. "For us, the TouchWiz Nature UX is light years more expansive with its arsenal of features to put the Windows Phone 7.5 Mango experience of the Nokia Lumia 900 to shame." - WTF?! Make only comparisons please, and leave the thinking to somebody else. Touchwiz is proven to be one of the hardest things to accept in all the droid army and it it clearly behind Sense. The fact that Samsung make their phones like tablets and full of redundand features does not make them better, alright? Jeesh!
