Buying a nokia lumia, good, bad or crazy?

I'm thinking about buying a lumia, i tried almost everything (not bought, tried) my cousin has a sumsung s4, tried it, amazing, ok but still an android, my xperia p is android so i wouldn't pay so much for an android device, how amazing could it be? 700$ for a phone is stupid (here it's 700$)

i tried iphone, great, i have an 4s right, tried the 4, and the 3gs, can't pay for 5, even if i did, i'd be stupid because in 10 september the 5s is coming, the 5 will be cheaper.

so my choices are another, newer xperia, an htc, an lg optimus, or a lumia.

Lumia seems interesting, cheap and a new os to try but few games on app store and very few free apps, don't know what to think about, i'm not the kind of guys who pays for apps, you see, unless my life depends on it, and guess what, my life never depended on an app! Nokia says it has a good cam, personally i don't care about cams, nokia says that you can use keys on the screen, i'm not gonna do that, so not impressed.

so what you think, what are the realistic options? Something that's relatively cheap. And what you think about nokia

I hate it when I can't remember something what I don't do is make stuff up

The Clint East film is called THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY (A answer probably wrong)

B answer better?

The minimum phone you want is the Lumia 620 which is Dual core and has a secondary camera
camera is 5MP but puts you clearly in the IPhone4S league.here is the 620 -v - [Android equiv Sam Gal Ace II http://www.gsmarena.com/...hone2=5147

The Lumia are the best W8 phone as better than the peers W8 only Nokia have released a 4G LTE W8 phone

You will net a HOTMAIL A/C to use a Lumia and their app market will catch up in my 2 years I have less than 30 Apps on Android all an app is is a shortcut!

W8 is refreshing yet has similarities to android and you get Nokia maps which you can down free so use with incurring any data charges

W8 it is basically open book but instead of see the 2 pages home page and app page you see home page and scroll to the right for the app, just 2 "columns" and any apps can be pinned

the touch screen is so responsive and W8 has always had predictive text on editable fields

The 620 is the better of the two phones and is a bargain as it is less than the Sam Gal Ace II but better specs

When you go premium however costs spiral and the 925 is costing that same as the S4 http://www.gsmarena.com/...hone2=5451

The premium Lumias lack microSD expansion so more like an Iphone, only the 620, 720 and the 4G LTE 820 have microSD expansion

You have a choice of 20 colours and the lime green tiles on the 620 can be changed to the blue 925 in under 5 seconds

So the 620 is kitted out to make video calls and you have to get HTC 8X (not the 8S) in order to get a secondary camera
