Nokia Lumia 920: Hands on and analysis

 

We get up close and personal with Nokia's next flagship handset – and look at its significance for the firm's alliance with Microsoft and the upcoming Windows Phone 8 push

Nokia’s mission statement in the smartphone space is arguably to play catch up with the iPhone and slew of Android based rivals that now are so strong in the market, certainly in the west. The Lumia series thus far has done a good job of providing a...

It may be large and heavy but Nokia's new flagship phone certainly packs in the goodies.

The Nokia Lumia 920 almost a barnstormer but is ultimately let down by a few too many niggling issues. Its optically stabilised camera does trounce the competition for night time shots but is let down by mediocre performance in good lighting. The...

Nokia Lumia 920 review

 

Given the buzz and anticipation around it, it seems odd to open our review of the Lumia 920 by talking about one of its rivals, but the truth is that HTC stole a march on Nokia by getting its 8X out into the wild first, and with its lovely design,...

Nokia Lumia 920 review

 

At this size, the 920 does feel quite unwieldy, but we did, eventually, get used to the sheer size of it. Pick up almost any other smartphone, and you're reminded of just how cumbersome it is. Those set on a more manageable Windows phone may want to...

The Lumia 920 is a very desirable smartphone. We love the fantastic screen, decent camera and it's jam packed with features. However, the downsides are the chunky design and somewhat spartan app store.
