Hi everyone,

i'm a long time android user and all my family is using android phones/tablet.

I consider myself a bit expert of the android world: i know how to flash roms, root, unlock bootloaders, tweak settings and similar stuff.

I have a Nexus S i9023 (SLCD version) 16 Gb that i want to change, but i'm pretty divided between two different phones: Lumia 735 and Moto G

Let's start saying i DON'T want to spend more then 300€ in a phone: i don't feel confident in walking around with a so valuable object (i picked my Nexus S for 200€ in a super special sale in a local store nearly one year after it's relase) so my choose must fall inside this range.

Second, i need a lasting phone: my nexus s is 3 years (october 2011 - Now) old and i want to keep my next phone AT LEAST the same amount of time

Third, i need a good battery and signal phone: too much times my Nexus S died in the mid of the day and too much times it loses signal inside my house and the wifi was always lacking

So, my attention was captured by 2 devices:

Lumia 735 and Moto G 2014

I analyzed both in "details" their similarities:

>Both had the same cpu Snapdragon 400 Quad core @1.2Ghz and the same GPU, an Andreno 305

>They have the same Screen Resolution of 1280x720

>Both had MicroSD support

And their difference:

>Differents screen size, 5" for Moto G and 4.7" for Lumia 735, so different DPI. Also different screen tech, IPS LCD for MotoG and OLED

>Different "optional" hardware: Lumia has the advantage of QI wireless charge and NFC that might be usefull sometimes

>Different memory sizes: 8 for lumia and 8/16 for MotoG

>Camera: i'm not a "selfie" guy but the rear camera, even with "only" 6.7MP has Carl Zeiss optic, the Lumia ones look to me better then the Moto G ones, that has 8MP, but i might be wrong, i haven't found a nice comparison between the two handset cameras

>Price: 270€ for Lumia and 200€ for Moto G (8Gb version both)

>Battery is slightly better on Lumia, 2200 vs 2070

Also, i tried to put together some "conclusions":

>Without considering price, the main difference is WP 8.1.1 (denim) vs Android 4.4.4 (Android L incoming). I never had a WP but the system always interested me, it looks so smooth and polished that i was always tempted to switch.

>i really trust nokia battery and signal, it's one of the major things that push me to Lumia. I hope that wp consumes less battery then android and that a 2200 battery, combined with an OLED 4.7" and a snapdragon 400 will at least 1 day of intensive usage

>talking about screen, i fear the burn-in, i read that the problem decreased in last years and appears only with brighter settings (i always keep the minimum bright to save battery), so i should have no problems

>My only REAL question if i will ever miss the android world: the lack of gapps scare me a bit, but except them, i miss no other apps, i have a really limited use of my phone: a bit of twitch.tv, twitter, reddit, whattsapp, irc ,facebook and downloading some torrents, nothing that i can't do on a windows phone but i have no idea what i'm going to find after the "jump"

Thanks for reading my wall of text, please share your toughts with me and sorry for my bad english.

Thanks for your time!
