I bet you'd be singing a different tune if this new camera sensor and "doubtful" camera app were coming to your OS of choice.

The OS of choice you think about (because it's not mine), doesn't use 2011 hardware just 6 months before 2014.

I too am not a fan of the OS, but the hardware and the camera in the 1020 is groundbreaking!

sigh another argument regarding socs HW specs etc. this is WP8 NOT ANDROID.
they dont effin need higher and higher specs to maintain the OS capabilities.

so what if its last year specs? if they are comparable/tie with quadcore androids. this is based on facts, news, reports in tech sites.

That's why Windows 8 need a beastly Intel i7 to run smoothly.

Why does your desktop/laptop run such high spec configuration? By your logic Windows needs server grade hardware to run smooth.

I will tell you something - that camera (sensor & lens) that Nokia is talking about is also part of hardware specs. It doesn't suddenly take great picture if it didn't have the hardware specs.

Hardware specs is an important parameter. If you can't see that, please remove that camera sensor from the phone because that also part of hardware specs.

Looks at what specs does:

Windows 8 even runs smoothly on ARM like the new 8" Acer tablet.

typical low brain people life start or cores and dwells on ram end on 1080p tell me about it what is new about ur 2014 spec sheet i bet nothing at all. we all been hearing of quad cores and GBs of RAM sicne 2005 or later although android remains crapy as always

just like apple?

but here you have engineering marvels (3 of it) inside the lumia 1020 body
41mp is not a joke.
it has OIS as 920 has
also stereo recording.
they slapped all that in one phone. it has a ZEISS lens too (6 lenses.first for a phone in the world)

i say it costs more than that. and you say 300 is expensive?

Not 6 "lenses"

Technically it's a 6 elements lens. You may also call it 6-lens optics.
