hmmmm.. sir max with all due respect im currently a lumia 520 user running on 512Mb ram and 1G dual-core processor.. yes comparing it to android phones i can say that it is under speced.. but no problems with its speed though as of so far.. i think its mainly because of the windows OS was optimized for this hardware.. i have handled some phones of my friends before running on an android OS.. not sure about the hardware but pretty sure it cant be any less than what my phone is running on.. but i think in simple responsiveness and smoothness of the OS my phone have the upper hand.. then again im not a hardcore apps user so there is not much running on my phone and of course there is the factor of how a 512 ram can handle a quad core proc as you’ve mentioned.. but i think the windows OS can handle it.. its not as heavy on the hardware as android by experience..

P.S: ive had S2 and xperia J before.. i dont have anything against android.. just kinda feels heavier..

Pardon my ignorance as I read all your comments. Any branded android phone you can recommend based on $169 price point? Comments seems idealogical but not realistic based on existing market values.

i was once a nokia client…and i pity the brand for lack of vision….they were the status symbol of cellphones before…now they were overtaken even by local brands and cheaper smartphones….there are a lot of cheap smartphones that has a quadcore chipset and a 1gb ram….i dont understand why nokia couldnt do the same….its really a pity

isip isip ka nga din bro minsan. android lang naman ang kailangan ng at least 1gb ram para smooth ang performance. enough na ang 512mb sa WP kahit nga sa iOS enough na ang 512mb ram eh. kung sa android kahit 1gb na may lag pa rin yung ibang phones sa WP kahit 512mb lang smooth pa din. minsan kasi try mo muna yung OS bago ka magsalita. buong buhay mo ata android lang na try mo eh. -_-

gray areas:
1. no led flash
2. ram: 512MB only
3. 1830 mah bat life
if you want a quad smartphone…the ram must be at least 1gb…and the bat must be at least 2k mah…
research and study before you buy folks

I hope the dual sim messaging app is user friendly and the same with the Asha platform. A toss between Moto G and Lumia 630.

Based sa mga website, you’ll get 2 separate messaging apps for each sim. Pero you can merge it for a linked inbox much like the current email app ng WP.
