The best Android phone I have ever used (and still using) to this day has been the Nexus 4. Screaming fast in everything it does, buttery smooth, solid construction, super sexy and packed with cutting edge technology. And at $299 unlocked and contract free, who gives a freaking sh*t for anything else cheaper. Nothing comes close. And since a Nexus, it also gets instantaneous updates. And all for $299 unlocked and contract free.

I concur. I can't stand the lag, personally. Some don't mind so much however-- my wife was using a 2 year old Nexus S running Jelly Bean until recently. It was slow as molasses. I expected her to be blown away by the responsiveness of her new Lumia 521, but I guess she thinks it's a minor consideration compared to all the missing apps and functionality. Sly's right, there's a lot of feature catchup that Microsoft should be doing... Not sure why they don't have a greater sense of urgency. That said, a notification center would not be in my top 10. Who cares?
