I used to own nokia feature phones 6 years ago and loved everything about them. After moving to the America's , I caught up with the smartphone wave and have used android,apple, blackberry and tried htc, samsung handsets. When my 2 yr contract ended with att, I looked for an off contract phone and was skeptical about windows 8. I picked up this phone for $100 from an att store. Honestly, I'm blown away and very glad to own a nokia phone again. I love everything about this phone.

Pros:
1. Excellent design and call quality
2. Great speed and smooth operation similar to high end phones that sell well over $200
3. Turn by turn navigation with offline maps
4. Offline music
5. Very good camera even without the flash
6. Live tiles are refreshing
7. Easily changeable back shell in bright colors

This phone will stay with me for many years no matter wherever technology takes us.

This is by far the best smartphone for the price NON_CONTRACT. You can't compare $199 contracted Galaxy S4 or iPhone 5 because you are stuck with a contract and must pay or companies come after you. I bought when it was $90 but at $100 it still can't be beat. You can't get an iPhone for $100 bucks and Android phones at this price range just plain suck. This baby is a dual core processor with 512mb of ram and it runs smooth. Windows phone might not have as many apps as android and iOS but it has quality apps that would satisfy most user (Pandora, Mobile office, Angry birds, Cut the rope, Netflix, Youtube, Hulu etc.) 97% of the apps on the other stores you would never use anyways.

Best part I think is Nokia Here maps. Better than google maps as you can download maps for just about any country in the world with turn by turn navigation. Offline mode is available without the need for data which is a very big plus for me.

IPS screen has very vivid colors although the resolution is not as high as most high end phones. Not like you can tell the difference on small screens. Screen is 4 inches and I think that is the right size. I have big hands or above average hand size and when I hold it with one hand my thumb can comfortably touch every part of the screen. The Galaxy S4 is about 4.8 inches I think and the Galaxy S3 is slighty smaller than that and my thumb can't touch the full screen without stretching.

Camera is a 5MP snapper with autofocus and such. Basic camera and there are neat apps like PANORAMA, PHOTOBEAMER AND CREATIVE SUITE to edit your photos on the spot. Really nice that I don't have to go to the computer to edit them. Video is shot at 720p while most higher phones shoot at 1080p but its not like most people can tell the difference since both are HD.

This phone will work for AT&T MVNOS like H2o wireless, Red Pocket, Airvoice etc. I am using it with H2o wireless without unlocking. If you unlock then you can also use t mobile.

I use this as my main phone and its great value.
