    No radio is a killer for me.

    The 4GB is limiting for WP8. Its a problem in the HTC8s also. Has good battery though.

    its not a bargain since wp8 looks like beta version plus very limited storage capacity and 4 inch screen its not enough for me any more;/

    Its a fine phone, but the (lack of) storage is crippling. 8GB is the bare minimum you should have.

    A friend of mine has a 4GB HTC 8S and it looks like a total nightmare trying to delete apps to make room for mandatory updates.

    I've heard good things about the phone otherwise.

    From the specs here it looks like it takes a MicroSD card of up to 32GB.

    4GB storage is built in, 512mb RAM.

    Windows 8 can't use the MicroSD for app data it uses the internal 4GB. Causing some issues.

    The Nokia 520 has more less the same spec, but with 8Gb built in memory and the same price if not less. Has an SD card slot too. It's got some great reviews so keep it in mind.

    The W1 has a better screen (probably) and a flash.

    You can get the 520 for 109 from O2.
