This was the most beautiful phone and most beautiful O.S ever, Windows Phone 8.1 Denim on OLED panel was pure magic, the serious and orderly fonts, the white letters on black backgrounds....felt....floaty.
Perfectly optimized, never lagged, rarely ever crashed, apps had proper metro aesthetic, adding up uniformity to a beautiful UI.
Android and iOS feel so childish...so....cartooney, Windows Phone was a novel, Android and iOS are mcu movies.
They day i no longer need whatsapp you bet i'll be buying 2 of these, one orange and one black, to slap the black battery cover on the orange and have a black Lumia 930 with silver edges.

It's sad to see Nokia Lumia smartphone dies like this Microsoft should allow people to put Android on them to give them a new life
Everything Microsoft touch turns too rubbish

Sin, 04 Dec 2021Is there a way to get android apps working on this phone or... moreBIG NO, windows phone like windows laptop, NOT OPEN SOURCE, you won't ever know the kernel and software coding
Android apps? NO, windows phone same like windows computer using C++ language, android is different, NOT Compatible with each other
Years Ago, there is project conversion APK to C++ app, but Unstable becauss different language so not run well, and now? Project absolutely a waste because now android has changed a lot diffefent from 2014

The android apps you said need to be converted first to make it compatible with windows language C++ and even that not much app can be converted, just waste a time
Why i said you too old to talk this? This phone is using Snapdragon 800 which means between Android JB KK and LP, even not much app from that 3 android generation can be converted and ran on this mobile, and now android has changed a lot so that project absolutely disbanded

Tushar Tarkar, 19 Jul 2021Hi everyone,
I had purchased this ph... moreReading your review made me want to have Lumia 930 again. I sold 930 for the 950 XL and even tho I love my 950XL, I missed the 930. The reason I sold 930 only because the lack of SD Card slot, and somehow, I want on-screen Windows Navigation bar/buttons lol.
But Live Calendar & Live Photo might be available in Android as a widget tho. If I'm not wrong, Google Photos and Calendar provide widget that are similar to Live tiles in W10M but yeah different OS means different experience.

Still one of the best looking phones ever. Something about those sharply-defined aluminum sides is such an eye-pleaser. The overall square design is very satisfying. I wish phones of today could take inspiration from these designs.

Hi everyone,
I had purchased this phone in Nov 2014 & used this phone till 2018 i.e till Windows dies in mobile. Since then till i am using Motorola Moto X4. But today too i miss my Nokia Lumia 930 very much.
1st of all it had 5" Amoled display which was bright enough & also capable to handle with 1 hand. The hardware was very good irrespective of its plastic back cover. I dropped the phone many times even on screen too, but never even a single crack on the screen. During my usage period, i never had to take repair my phone at all. I did not face any mike issue as everyone says.
Later on i had updated my phone to Windows 10. And after updating i started loving my phone than before as the update gave more features which were ahead of time (which android has rolled out with android 9.0 & above versions).
The major things that i loved is Live Calender & Live Photo. Still today these features are not given by Android.
I still love & miss Nokia Lumia 930. See Nokia has got Pure View feature in their flagship phone Nokia 9. Now I request Nokia to bring these 2 features also back in there flagship phones.

This phone had incredible hardware and was ahead of its time, except the fact that it had one of the worst OSs ever put in a phone and the battery life was atrocious. Despite its middling drawbacks, I did enjoy using it as my first ever smartphone.

You have to do that when setting up a Yahoo mail account on mobile devices now, unless you use their own app.
