I have a Lumia 920 too but my experience had been completely different.

I had before an Iphone 3G and an Android 2.3 and don't miss anything as those two. First the camera is hands down the best camera I had use in a mobile phone (I haven't check the new Iphone or the last Lumia though) and I appreciate the new camera app that came with the Amber update.

Xbox Music is also another big thing to me, it just works and I can download the music I want for a reasonable subscription price. Last time I checked Spotify didn't really compared to it and not to mention how painful it is to set it up in Canada.

I haven't had the notification problem yet, but I only really read notifications from 4 apps, all the other ones I don't care.

So I guess it depends on the user, for users like me it just way better.

(PS: Not to mention how good are SkyDrive, OneNote, Word, Excel)

Have you used Google Music? It sounds like it offers roughly the same experience as Xbox Music.

It is not available in Canada yet :(

Also it seems to be streaming only, in which case I couldn't use it when I am on the subway.
