Forums - Gaming Discussion - Nokia Lumia 1020 upstages the Sony Xperia Z1 at Sony’s own launch event

The Nokia is a camera with a phone built around it. If that's what you want, there you go.

The Z1 is a higher class phone with one of the better smart-phone cameras but it's not built around being a camera the way the Nokia is. I don't see any real issues here. Looks like the OP is trying to turn this into a much bigger deal than it is.


I'm actually happy with my HTC One. Windows Phone OS is a step back from Windows Mobile. Tried Windows 7/8 and it lacks features I need. Which makes me sound like at troll when I post on Windows Phone forums. Check my sig.

The top pictures definitely favor the 1020. But the colors, contrast and saturation for the pic of the girl in the pool look much more natural on the Z1 pic.


Download the picture set. Those pictures up top are crap.

May I ask what those features are that you need but are not available? I've been able to do crazy shit with Windows Phone 8, some of which people say are not possible and are the reaosns they go with android... Things like:

Flash Video playback and live streaming - no problem

torrent downloads to phone - easy peasy

etc

Im curious to hear what people can't do on WP8

Ok... I still think the same after looking at them.

Seems like the Nokia applies a really bad saturation correction. It looks like torch mode, in TV config terms.

bwahaha...right. Man, does my memory suck.

Good news is there is a direct to phone torrent client available that should solve your issue from a few months ago...
