Nokia Lumia 920 review: The Luminary

04 December 2012
Not the best of times then for the Finns, but the right time for a flagship to show its worth. Saying that the future of the company is being decided here is probably too much. But the Lumia 920 could be the difference between living with dignity and scratching a living on emerging markets...

    Ok, latest update: unplugged from charger 10:00AM yesterday. Now after 36hours 23% remaining, always wifi connected, data connection off, 3G off, since I'm in remote area. Always silent due to office condition.

      Hi.

      Got it on 29Dec. Battery life dropped from 100% to 25% from 6AM to 2PM. Reset, reinstalled whassap etc., drain the battery to shutdown then hold few more hours after full charge (as suggested in some wpcentral forum). Now with NFC on, Bluetooth on, white background (for outdoor clarity), no battery saving, 3G on, data connection on, some background app unblocked, still got 22% after 24 hours. I personally find that very acceptable. 3rd party software would benefit from improved stability, though. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my nude 920 and now posting from it :)

                      Grate phones comes with grate innovation innovations and Nokia lumia 920 is one grate phone

                        Good news for lumia lovers in INDIA... The nokia lumia 920's official web page is down. I checked it at 11.54pm local time today. This indicates that there's definitely something cooking inside - hopefully they are updating official web page for lumia 920.

                        This leaves a clue that the official launch is not too far away now.. May be tomorrow (based on live chat with nokia representative which also pointss to the end of the first week of jan i.e. they presume from 1st to 7th). So cheers guys!! Fingers crossed!!

                        Here's the web page :

                          Could you please update the test with camera samples after the 1.1 update. Afterall it's one of the key features of the 920 and it didn't do too well in your daylight photography tests

                              Lumia 920 is the most innovated phone out there, bar none.

                              It has the fastest screen on mobile (5.4X faster refresh rate than the iPhone 5' screen, and 2.4X faster than Galaxy S3). Screen has better visibility than any other phone even on bright sunlight. The touchscreen works with gloves that other phones won't. The Optical Image Stabilization on the camera is the first in smartphone. It has the best low light camera in mobile. HAAC (audio recording) microphones beast every other phones that are none-Nokia. Wireless charging built-in. The buttons and camera deco are made of the super hard Zirconium for scratch resistant, unlike the Lumia 900's. It has a next-gen Dual LED flash.

                                        The best phone i ever own even after switching from sgs3 i love my lumia 920 i like tha simple ui and fb integration. And display is awsam compare to any other phone camera result is way better then sgs3 or iphone 5. I dont need bullshit apps of google and any other which it lacks. I am very happy with it
