  6. wow! wow! wow! guys, hindi niyo ba napapansin na ang iphone ay kalat na kalat na, kahit class C, D E F at G ay naka iphone na. hindi mo na malaman ang fake sa tunay. at ang specs ay makikita sa lahat na ng phone, kahit cherry mobile at hinihigitan pa. pangalan na lang ang bentahan ng iphone, overpriced at bumabaduy na. parang levis noon, mahal at in na in, ngayon wala na

  7. sayang talaga ang nokia… matibay at hindi ka niloloko sa presyo, at ang mga design ay malinis, hindi gaya ng samsung, ang pang intsik ang design. wrong timing lang talaga, nag introduce ng windows sa kasagsagan ng popularity ng android at ios. timing lang talaga. ang linis ng windows at pang mga visual artist ang layout. apps lang ang naging kulang kasi hindi popular ang os niya. sayang talaga!

  8. Got the FABULOUS nokia lumia 1520, an underrated uncommon beautiful phone. and the next phone for me will be this one, the XL! it will be mine! mine mine mine!

  9. This phone is not made by Nokia, but by Microsoft Corp. Microsoft have a contract with Nokia to have their phones manufactured under Microsoft however it will expire next year 2016. Nokia is planning to rebuild its mobile industry but its currently looking for a partner. Right now, this is not a nokia brand but a Microsoft brand.
