The Lumia 920 and the Windows Phone 8X can both be considered victories for Microsoft as both smartphones share the same mobile operating system.
Nokia's Lumia 920 has perhaps been receiving more attention over HTC's Windows Phone 8X as the Lumia device has been selling out from AT&T, Amazon, and Best Buy especially during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday specials.
