It really isn't.
When you have less customisability than an Apple product you know you've done something wrong.
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37551048]Remind me how many years it took Apple to graciously add the ability to add a wallpaper to your iPhone?
WP7 still allows more home screen customization than iOS does.[/QUOTE]
Like, one?

You can change the colour of the tiles and move them around.
That's it.
I hope the windows phones get popular. Its a shame how it got from "Everybody has a nokia" to "Nobody has a nokia"
I'm quite happy with my One X (I got it yesterday for £20.50/month + £40 upfront :dance:). Despite that, this looks like a really nice phone. I wonder if WP8 is as good as ICS or Jellybean, the former of which is awesome, and I trust the latter will only be better.

You can move icons around and plop them into a folder on iOS, that's it.[/QUOTE]
On WP7 you can't even create folders or change the background.
I don't remember the last time I used an OS where you can't change the background.
I'm no Apple fan boy, but you're lying if you say that WP7 is more customisable than iOS.

i don't think windows phone would even look good with backgrounds.

besides, customization isn't everything
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37551467]I've had Launcher7 on my android phone with a wallpaper. It looks like ass until you remove the live tiles and just have flat white icons.[/QUOTE]
which pretty much ruins the entire 'tile' concept, and looks like ass with live tiles

I believe it would only look good with simple patterns as shown in Windows 8
Modifying it to use 'busy' wallpapers looks atrocious, but the ones provided by standard are nice and fitting.

depends on what area
performance wise - yes
looks - personal opinion (though iOS is more open once you jailbreak it)
Openness - iOS
Apps - iOS
etc.

i've had my samsung focus for over a year now and holy fucking shit i cannot stand the lack of customization and this comes from someone who's an apple fanboy i mean i can only change the color so many times
[QUOTE=Panda X;37550523]From the CNET source:
Maybe CNET just put half the colors, because in some places I'm seeing reports of white and black too as you said, in which case I'll get the black.[/QUOTE]
I'd be surprised if it also didn't come out in Cyan, since that was a really popular colour with the 800 and 900.
it looks like a lemon starbust candy

I had a cyan lumia 800 and I had to take it back because it had serious touch issues, my friend has a cyan lumia 800 too and she has touch difficulties so idk what was up with that
but I don't mind the black

That is fucking amazing. I might get this phone just because of that camera.
Wow. I never thought I'd switch from Android but there's a great chance of it with this phone.
I just bought a Lumia 800 the other day. I'm very happy with my purchase, even though I don't get these cool new things. I don't know, it just seems more stylish than an android phone and more serious than an Iphone
[QUOTE=Scot;37550507]Too bad Windows Phone is a massive honking piece of shit.[/QUOTE]
the OS is amazing but the App Ecosystem is the worst part of it.
i wouldn't mind if Apple VS Android gets replaced by Windows vs Android

Sample photos. Even doing away with the press shots, this is mightily impressive.

Why not have it Apple vs google vs windows? Much better if you ask me.

I feel like I've missed out on some amazing features but tbh 7.8 should do what I need anyway
Wow, that phone looks really impressive. Maybe I'll upgrade to it from my Galaxy S I.
Full res samples where?
It looks great and all but the one thing I absolutely hate is the size of it, too big for my comfort. :(

get the smaller, 820
Holy shit WIRELESS CHARGING
I got the Lumia 710 literally 10 hours before the 900 was announced. I wanted to kick a small puppy
