    Hi
    Am due an upgrade and am considering the nokia 820.
    I currently have an huawei g300 android and all my contacts
    are linked to my gmail account.
    Is it a big deal to retrieve these on an 820 or am i better off sticking with android?
    The android devices that are the same price are
    sony xperia p
    motorola razr i

    Mostly use the phone for calls,texts,email and web browsing
    Dont use apps much, only twitter.
    Which one would be best suited for my needs?
    Has anyone made the leap from android to WP8?
    Any help greatly appreciated:)

    I currently have a lumia,the hardware is nice and windows over all seems more stable and fluent.Like you i rarely use apps other than a few i need.Overall,im glad i switched.

    Had a galaxy s2 before by the way.

    You can link you gmail contracts in Win7 and Win8 as well, so no issue with that.

    I was due an upgrade and went for the Lumia. It's an amazing phone. I was worried about the weight of it, but now I love the solid feel and the build quality is so much better than the Samsung.

    Took a little bit of time to get used to the interface, but now I would never consider going back.
