As you may see in my Instagram further back in my gallery I have got great photos even from a 5mp camera like the Lumia 1320 in Cambridge among others!! I am sure you can get better shots than that @fbloise

Has anyone noticed when scrolling on the screen if you look closely there is a faint blurring like poor refresh rate?? It's not terrible but it's there I've noticed it on both units I had. The same thing happens on the Lumia 925 screen which is supposed to have Puremotion HD crap

Sorry Cu-!
I was reading the forums in wpcentral, tons of other users complaining. I think is the way it is. One thing: i tried using the camera with the ProShot app and the photos seems to be better than using the Camera app or Nokia Camera Pro.
Will keep you guys posted.

And....
I have charged my 930 three times. The 808? Still has 34% battery in the same period.

Is that with similar usage ?
If you are talking about light/idle type scenario there is no "modern" smartphone that can beat a Symbian powered one in terms of power drain. Those things idle at ~0.04w and ~0.06w with the clock on... |

All the modern phones i had recently had great standby life: Note 3, iPhone 5s, lumia 1520 and now lg g3. On the other hand the symbian phones i had (most recent ones) had average battery life-not bad but not great either) i.e. n97, N8, sony satio. |

I found when I used to have Symbian phones the battery would stay at a certain level for a while but if you rebooted it the battery level had dropped significantly. I didn't find the battery on N8 that special. As for modern smartphones I've noticed lately Android phones like from Sony, HTC etc have improved a lot. What let's them down is Android bugs especially in KitKat which kill battery life. The LG G2 was still the best battery I've ever had on any phone but it wasn't so good under KitKat update. Many say Windows Phone is less power hungry and more power efficient. I've not noticed this either on any Windows Phone although it doesn't have all the shit that runs in the background even when your doing nothing. All this amazing technology is great but battery technology has stayed the same for years. That's what manufacturers need to concentrate on, not gimmicks. These Ultra Power saving modes Samsung or HTC use are useless to me because they turn it into a dumb phone.

I agree with Bono, even in the Symbian days battery wasn't incredible, I at some point had both a Nokia N8 and SE Xperia X10, tbh, battery varied depending on usage and the Nokia battery had a tendency to show full bars, then one would drop after about an hour or 2 of heavy usage and then the next bunch of bars would drop quicker then the final bar would take a while, it was like that from the Nokia N80 right up to the N8, I dealt with many Symbians from my trusty N81 to E90, E71, E75, N95 8GB etc etc... All acted the same. With lite usage the battery could show full bars for most of the day, then you begin using it and the bars start falling quick.
With the Lumia 930 I honestly believe the 2420mAh battery was a bad idea, I simply do not believe it's enough, not for a Snapdragon 800 phone with a 5inch FHD display, no matter what MS say WRT WP8.1's power usage, the Lumia 1520, IMO, is the one WP that came with a correctly sized battery in terms of Lumia phones.
The phone OEMs can blabber much as they want about battery saving techniques but nothing beats a huge battery with good power saving, the LG G2, Moto Maxx phones etc... prove that. The 930 should've come with a 2600mAh battery at the very least, IMO it's a major design flaw and I will not be suprised if we see a beefed up 935 soon or less promo of the 930. That's my opinion, I don't see the 930 performing up to GS5, Xperia Z2, LG G3 standards when the 930 battery results from PA, GSMArena etc... come in, I hope MS prove me wrong, but the Lumia Icon results leave me with no hope of that happening.

I would rather have had Nokia fit in a larger battery than wireless charging. Wireless charging is nothing I really badly need & it's slower to charge that way anyway. I remember the Nokia N80 had terrible battery life. The best Lumia battery I have had so far was the 1320
