I'm currently rolling with my First WP7 Device and it's a Nokia Lumia 710

If A Custom ROM Comes Out For My Lumia That Allows WP8 To Be Installed Then Yes, I Would Install It.

No. I'm a android guy.

Windows Phone UI looks terrible. Doesn't seem to function that well either. I'll stick with Symbian.

You're definitely in the minority there. Symbian has tanked, and with good reason.

I'll be getting a WP8 device. My Lumia 800 is getting replaced this November. As much as I have some reservations about the changes (I vastly prefer the 7.5 to the 7.8/8.0 home screen), neither of the alternatives - iOS or Android - appeal to me in the slightest. So WP8 it is.

I know. Maybe if I owned Windows Phone I'd get used to it. Just first impressions were that it doesn't look very nice.

I'd buy a Windows Phone 8 if I had any money. As it is, I'll stick with my Zune HD.

What a coincidence, I would do the same thing and also, got a Lumia 710 just now

I don't want to waste money for another WP device, i know since now that Windows Phone 8 will be abandoned just like WP7 , so i'll stick with my nice and fast Acer Allegro with WP 7.5 (i'll upgrade to 7.8 of course) , it has got all i need (except bluetooth -.-'')

I was an android guy but then I was having so many problems with my xperia phones I gave up and got a lumia.

I'm not dissing android, infact I'm going to buy a Nexus 7 Soon.



Acer Allergo? We don't have that here in the UK.



You made a very good decision! Hopefully there will be a custom ROM.





You know you can just set the tile size to the Windows Phone 7 Default (Medium) right?

I'll be getting a WP8 device if Verizon gets something decent this time. Their current offering is a single device, and it's not that great.
Also, I'll be buying it outright and activating it myself, so that I can keep my unlimited data (unless I can convince my family to switch away from Verizon and to some other company like T-Mobile)

If i get money, but currently i would prefer Android.

The Acer has been sold in the UK, but not bundled as part of a contract or subsidised in any way, so it wasn't particularly price-competitive.

The tile-size thing is a per-tile setting - I hope you'll be able to force a default tile size, but I've not seen anything to suggest either way. Plus the black strip down the right goes either way, and I liked having that there. It's changes like these that concern me, because they go against Metro. There's a whole host of things like that in Windows 8 as well, where adherance to Metro has been abandoned in favour of something "simpler" or "more customisable".

I use low-end phones, so not for a long time.

NO only if an early WP7 beta leaks and I am able to reverse engineer it.

I want to see a Windows Phone with the new codename Bay Trail quad core Intel Atom SoC in it that would turn into a x86 Windows 8 system when docked.

Why not get a Motorola Razr i (intel based Android phone) and run the x86 version of WP 8 that leaked on it?
