I have a 2010 Android phone which is faster than an iPhone.
The days of lag on Android died when the Gnex arrived. Basically anything with a proper ICS 4.0.3 build and higher runs iOS smooth. Especially if it has Tegra 2 or better processor.
Got to see the NOTE2 that I bought for my brother, and the better screen, better stylus, multitasking and notification light... that's really tempting me to upgrade from OG NOTE.

Agreed though. If you buy a proper Android phone you can't really put lag as a negatibe about Android anymore. In some regards it's even smoother than Windows Phone.
Flicking away a scrolling list is smoother on WP. Though the “finger smoothness”, when you hold your finger and swipe on the screen, the movement is actually smoother than WP. So yeah the days of laggyness is pretty much gone. Love my Nexus. Love my N9 too though

have you tried swype to post on this site? Or tap type in the browser address bar quickly.

Lumia 920 is under $500. This is a good price for the specs.

just checked out lumia 920 in San Fran. Sold out today in the center of town. played with it, and it looks beautiful. I also like the fact that fonts ARE adjustable, and you can read things easily. Feels great and weight helps to the feeling. Was going to buy it, but sold out!!

Be patient, you will get it. Persevere.

I would go for Nokia Lumia 920 because what I'm aiming for is a good camera phone with a very very smooth UI surface, and BIG screen.
I won't go for Android even when Note 2 is really attractive to me, I just can't accept the lagness of the OS.
I will not go for iOS either, to me, getting an iDevice, it MUST be big, there is no point playing on an iPhone which screen is so small when you can enjoy the HD version on the iPad, why iPhone when you can get iPad which is so much cheaper?
I'm a N9 user btw :P
