imageChristmas has arrived early this year! Today I received my white review unit of the Nokia Lumia 920, courtesy of Nokia Norway. Just to clear the air initially: It is a beautiful piece of hardware! Yes, it is big, and slightly “heavy”, but boy, is this a gorgeous phone. I have been using it pretty much non-stop since I received it. Tweaking the start-screen, downloading and adding apps, trying the camera a little and so on.

I will write up a more extensive review during the rest of this week, and plan on posting it here early next week. I believe that I should have at least a week of usage with a phone to give it the review that I think it deserves.

For now you will have to settle with these first impressions of mine after roughly a half day of usage.

 

My first impressions:

– Beautiful hardware!

– Sturdy – solid.

– Great screen, although the blacks on this screen is not as black as on the Lumia 900 (which has an AMOLED screen)

– Great call reception and connectivity – connects faster to Wi-Fi than the Lumia 900 did.

– Fast – snappy – quick (pick your set of synonyms)

– Fits nicely in my hands, although a little slippery. A little wider compared to the Nokia Lumia 900.

– Great camera – stunning low-light pictures and pretty good ones in normal light as well!

– Windows Phone 8 is a visual improvement over Windows Phone 7. Feels faster. Adds some nice touches. Need more time with it!

– There is a bug with Kids Corner – when I slide right and down from the Lock-screen I (my kids are supposed to go straight into Kids Corner – on my phone they have to enter (my) pin first

– Beautiful! (huh? I said that already?)

Open-mouthed smile

I have taken some pictures from the unboxing, and have also compared it to the Lumia 900 and my old iPhone 4.

No images found.

More coming soon..

Aw, this was a very nice post. Taking the time and actual effort to produce
a great article… but what can I say… I put things off a whole lot and don’t seem to get nearly anything done.
