Why lumia 820

The device has a 1. We get absolute blacks when seeing backs and not greyish blacks. AMOLED displays have always been praised for lower power consumption but that's not the case with this phone. Battery: It's a very important factor.

Although a lot of innovation has been going on in smartphone sector, nothing concrete has been achieved for the battery. One hardly gets a full day on one charge.

Although takes less time to charge but also takes less time to discharge. Software: It's all about Windows Phone and Nokia services tied in.

The good thing about Windows Phone is that it doesn't require raw hardware to run smoothly. This makes sure that we get unparalleled performanceevery single time. Also, it should be noted that unlike Android, every single WIndows Phone out there can be upgraded to the latest SOftware without issues and with full feature list.

That in itself is a miraculous achievement. Windows Phone 8. Nokia has provided great services with it's Lumia Range that bides well with the phone. Conclusion: Nokia Lumia is a device with character. I say this because it represents Nokia in a different way than we have seen it over the years.

It's a great device to have but not for the price it is being sold. I would've recommended it otherwise. I think a 3. You won't be disappointed though if you get it. Is this review helpful? Excelent Phone. The edges aren't quite as rounded, and while the phone is fairly hefty at 9. It feels denser, but given the 4. The removable shell on our unit was bright matte yellow.

More importantly, though, it housed Qi-standard wireless charging beneath that color. While it isn't built into the hardware, it doesn't seem to add much to the weight or the thickness of the case and thus the device itself. While we love a yellow glow, the soft-finish wireless charging shell doesn't evince that premium feel we got from the Lumia just a few weeks ago.

It's not all bad: the removable cover offers up access to the battery, and this is also the first Windows Phone 8 handset to arrive with microSD expansion in tow supporting cards as large as 64GB , meaning more leeway after you've filled up the 8 gigs of built-in space.

The design is inoffensive enough, but it doesn't look like a Lumia to us. While the is unequivocally part of Nokia's "fabula" lineage, this one's a design riff more comparable to the Lumia The button layout follows the Windows Phone template -- there's the trio of capacitive buttons below the screen, with three physical plastic buttons along the right edge.

The two-stage camera button is a little over-sensitive -- the phone often took pictures when we only wanted to focus, which is frustrating when you're trying to grab those spur-of-the-moment shots.

Along the bottom edge, you'll find the micro-USB port next to a single speaker that's pleasingly loud -- we only had to hit the middle settings for a decent playback volume. Just above the screen, a VGA front-facing camera will be able to deal with admittedly low-resolution video-calls.

Inside, you'll find connectivity through NFC, It's the little touches that disappointed us, however, like the plastic finish across the camera unit and physical buttons. There's no micro-drilled detail here, while a substantial screen composed of the border around the AMOLED display, the phone's edge plus the casing around it makes the phone wider than it perhaps needs to be. The Lumia offers a mediocre x resolution 4. Nokia's ClearBlack tech keeps those blacks black, but we have a feeling we saw something very similar if not identical on the Lumia -- it's the same size, the same resolution and the same AMOLED tech.

We pointed out the lack of qHD or p resolution before Microsoft cast aside Windows Phone's low-res requirements, and six months later it's still an issue. While this isn't completely a bad thing, given the admirable outdoor performance we saw there, we return to the same issues with the resolution that we had then. Those Windows Phone logos and Live Tiles look decidedly jaggy on this screen, but the gap between Nokia's new pair of smartphones is especially pronounced during web browsing and on-screen reading on the Kindle app.

However, the Lumia demonstrated better viewing angles than the higher-resolution non-AMOLED Lumia and the device has also been treated to the same super-sensitive capacitive screen tech, meaning you'll be able to navigate through Windows Phone with gloves or even nails.
