rkevwill — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:07:03 GMT

Has the forum headline news reported this? Seemed pretty important to me.

Nokia Lumia 928 or iPhone 4S?

Shath32 — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 21:31:13 GMT

I'm looking to get my first smartphone hopefully within the next couple weeks.
I am with Verzion and I am not sure if I should go with Nokia or Apple. My desktop is a Mac but I plan on getting a PC for college in a few months so I will be using that more than the Mac.
I have an iPod Touch so I am familiar with iOS, I have not used a Windows phone nor Windows 8.

Which phone would you recommend for me and why?
