Performance is one thing, that aside, it is a rather rare device, and i love that uniqueness, especially in countries where it was not launched. A unique device with a unique operating system

And I believe it is a rebel among phones... If you know the history behind it... The end and beginning of many things... I think theres many reasons behind me buying this phone and i am very proud of all it is.

Man.. the world's full with Iphones.

At live gigs , I see iphones. At restaurants , I see Iphones.
Greek beaches... full with iphones. Night clubs..Iphones!!

You really want to be part of the mass?

Aren't you sick of it yet? I am.
Think different!

All those comparison stories... Of course you can compare phones, but at the end it's important what the user likes most. I'm happy that we have the choice of different phones, because everyone has individual needs.

Before N9 i used iPhone4 and iPhone3G. Now I never, ever wanna go back to them - to me N9 is so much better and simplifies many things for me. The iPhone was pretty much unusable for me without jail-breaking and modifying the user-interface (plus installing many apps since the OS lacks many features). I also had much worse battery life with iPhones and there was always something which upset me.

The N9 excites me still as much as it did in the beginning.

My girlfriend uses Android - but she would love to have a N9. To many things don't work well on Android (Skype calls, multitasking, calls crashing/interrupting in a bad way running apps) and the system just doesn't work and look as neat as N9.

But N9 has its problems too, even with PR1.3 it's sometimes still a bit laggy + minimal support by Nokia. Furthermore before PR1.2 update i wouldn't have recommended the phone to a noob. And btw: I'm not using any tweaks on my regular N9.

So have a look again to your N9, there should be solutions to improve it (battery life etc). But ask: "Which phone is the better one", won't help you, since it needs to fit your needs.

is it common? and when i installed back the faster n9 tweak, it lags like before. uninstall back and it working perfectly fine now. is there some bugs on the faster n9? seems like the flash firmware dont go along with faster n9. actually i dont even need the faster n9 now. the flash firmware seem to fix the original firmware problem that i encountered back then. battery life is super good and the phone is a lot more responsive now.
