Last nokia i actually liked was a 3210, nothing of value has been lost.

Over here in Japan, Xperia A, SGS4, iPhone 5 and Eluga X are the mobile kings.

Thats that then.  Japan dont like them so they may aswell give up.  If you dont think any of the Lumia's are good devices then I'd suggest you dont want to.

 

The Lumias are just fine, but Microsoft is just always kinda late to the party. You wanna get a Full HD phone? Then it's no Win Phone for you. Also, they are waaaay to expensive at launch. When I got my Xperia Z, it was cheaper than the Lumia 920, even though the Lumia was inferior in every aspect except the camera. 

It doesn't mean that there will be bad sales, but for me personally, Androids are just the better option. That said, I think for nearly every customer, the OS doesn't really matter. Windows, Android, iOS and even Blackberry gets done what you want to do. It's just a question of personal preference, if you ask me. I had them all and no OS is really bad in my eyes. Everything works just fine, no matter what OS you use. 

My last Nokia phone was the N8 btw. I liked it a lot, especially the camera with Xenon Flash and the built-in FM Transmitter.
