  Nokia 820: A pretty house with dirty Windows

Advantages: Glare resistant screen, Fast Internet, Google account comaptible
Disadvantages: Heavy phone, not incredibly customisable, messy operating system, poor music quality

Phone for the future

Advantages: great features and functions. Good processor speed and really easy flowing Windows menu
