Mark Cuban: Lumia 920 'crushes' latest iPhone Billionaire Mark Cuban had some tech questions thrown at him during a recent Reddit AMA session and one particular answer stood out.
During the AMA, someone asked what gadgets he's currently using: "I have a MacBook Air, but am trying the new Acer with Windows 8. I really, really like Windows 8 on my phone. I have 2 phones. First is Samsung, the 2nd was an iPhone 5. The new Nokia with windows replaced my iPhone 5."

When asked to elaborate a bit on why he dumped the iPhone, Cuban said: "It crushes the iPhone 5. Not even close."

The iPhone 5 has obviously destroyed Nokia's devices in actual sales but Nokia's device has a larger screen, wireless charging and some great software such as Pureview and CityLens. It was an interesting answer by Cuban.
