Definitely buy a Nokia Lumia 920. Less than a hundred bucks on contract. It's purportedly getting replaced by some metallic or black slab, so if you like colors (like I do, i got the yellow one), you don't have to worry. Also, I prefer the OIS (amazing pictures under low light) than some higher megapixel count

The big question is when do you need the phone? Do you need it now?

I need it latest by March 15th.

Also, to all those suggesting the Lumia 920, isn't a better more powerful windows phone coming out alongside MWC?

Have to say I don't think the best phones are launched at mwc.

Galaxy S3, galaxy note 2, nexus phones, iPhones, all have their own events.

Galaxy S2 launched at MWC. The S4 is rumored to be announced at MWC, so let's see. Since MWC falls before his deadline, it's best to wait, even if 'best' phones aren't released there.

True though, if he can wait he may as well do.

Another poster here saying wait until MWC. You're going to get some new phones from Samsung using their own Exynos 5 Octa SOC, as well as other OEMs detailing their own phones with next generation SOCs (like Tegra 4) so it's definitely worth the wait. Anything you buy now will be guaranteed outdated in a couple of months.
