Hey all, I've had the Lumia 928 for about a year now. I've been disappointed by the processing speed mostly, but also the look. When you have the phone on in a dim room, the buttons on the bottom light up to reveal some backing that wasn't peeled off all the way. I know it's a little picky, but I expected more out of Nokia.
On another note, my calls started having issues with the earpiece. A couple of months ago I would answer the call and not be able to hear the person on the other end until I used speakerphone mode. I was still under warranty and the new device seems to be doing fine.
And the most important note: ear bud shocking. I have an older set of ear-buds and I've used them in the phone and I liked them because they have a premium feel and audio quality. They have signs of use on the ear-buds and so when they started electrifying my ear, I just assumed it was the buds. I have now also tried a set of iPhone ear-buds and they do the exact same thing and now in the warranty replacement device.
I am determined to not get another warranty device. Windows phone has proven to be behind in many ways, so I am waiting for the LG G3 to come out and I will upgrade to that phone. I just wanted to see if there were others with similar complaints or if not, to let people know some of the issues I've run into with this phone.
On a good note, this phone is great at taking pictures and is ok with games. It's quite slow with web browsing though.

"A couple of months ago I would answer the call and not be able to hear the person on the other end until I used speakerphone mode."
Yep, that is me too... only I can make calls and when I switch to speakerphone, the person is there and not happy.
I am on my second 928. The ear piece started cutting out every now and then and after 9 months it was happening more frequently to the point I could make several calls and not hear the receiving phone ring or someone would call and I could not hear them. My only fix was to reboot the phone then the issue would still be sporadic. Verizon replaced the phone and all was well for 4 months and now my replaced phone started doing the same thing. Of course the warranty on the replaced phone has passed and still have 10 months to go before I can upgrade. I am jumping to the Edge program though I know it will cost me more initially but when, not if, this phone craps out I won't be stuck with a useless phone.
