    Well, this depends on what you value more.
    E.g. Nokias have good cameras, but different OS.

    The nokia handsets will have good cameras, but considering the handset you are coming from, I think the S3 mini is the one that would be worth considering. However, the 820 also seems like an interesting choice, if you are happy to switch to Windows Phone 8 (Which is good BTW)

    My Opinion?


    Lumia 820... It's getting a massive Windows Phone 8.1 update which includes Cortana (Google Now/Siri Equiv but... arguably better), Action/Notification Centre... a HUGE overhaul of the entire OS.


    It's a 4g phone that supports wireless charging, nokia are great with cameras.


    Give it a punt, if you don't like it... sell it and buy something else? :)

    As the 820 is getting Windows Phone 8.1 that definitely makes it an interesting proposition.

    And now the app ecosystem is unified across all platforms, Windows Phone is a very real option.

    The app ecosystem is very much not unified.

    820 is a good option though.
