Ace is a fine phone if you're not installing too many apps. Internal memory is shocking. The Lumia is a great phone for the price. Better camera than the Ace, bigger memory, much better screen (resolution and size) but the apps aren't there the way there are for Android - that said, the major players like Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp etc are all present. If it were me, I'd be going for the Lumia and I doubt there would be too much disagreement.
