    Playlists? TBH just make them on music.xbox.com and sync them via the cloud.

    Or from the windows 8 music app.

    Trying to make playlists on a small touch only device is a pain in the arse.

    Got the update on my 925 on Friday too, yet to notice any actual difference.

    Like my missus you'll have to wait for your carrier to sign it off - she's with Virgin, so hopefully it won't be a long process.

    You're complaining about 4.5GB for apps? Seriously?! In that case you really want to try slumming it - borrow an HTC 8S. When I was doing the upgrade of that (my daughters phone) that only has less than 1.5GB. I had to remove ALL apps and do all kinds of hijinks just to get that last Windows Phone upgrade to install. Oh and that's 1.5GB AFTER that install, before it was less than 1GB! I'm definitely not a big fan of HTC phones after that.

    Yes, the 4GB in the HTC 8S put me off buying one, literally at the last second, I then went for the 620. I have played with the 8S and love the feel/design of it and it's just a real shame that HTC didn't put 8GB in, I would have bought one no question at all. I'm hoping HTC are going to hang on, I still might consider them for an upgrade next year.
    I should of mentioned that on my 620 I've got 3.61GB "Other" files which I'm trying to reduce without much luck at the moment. The "Amber/GDR2" update helped but I have a feeling it's related to app usage and/or net usage, even though I've cleared every Temp file folder I can find. Apps show up as 1.5GB and OS as 1.92GB. I might just reset it and start from scratch.

    Been a month and Lumia Black is still nowhere to be seen on my wife's Lumia 620. Disappointing.

    I haven't tried doing it that way, will give it a go. It still doesn't help with the ability to decide on a quick playlist on the go, like at the start of a long train journey for instance, where I might decide I want to get a particular selection of songs or even selection of playlists together for that particular journey, event or mood.
