If you happen to have the Nokia Lumia 920 for your smartphone of choice, you know you have a very capable device in the palm of your hands. The handset after all used to be the flagship device of the Finnish smartphone maker for the Windows Phone ecosystem and such status gave the device an impressive set of components under the hood. In addition to that, the Nokia Lumia 920 also boasts of a remarkable camera department with its rear shooter capable of coming up with pictures with excellent image quality even when taken in low-light situations.

That the Nokia Lumia 920 is one capable device is already a given, but the handset is set to become even more capable than it already is once the handset finally gets a taste of the much-awaited Amber Update. The said update is set to bring a bagful of goodies and treats to the Nokia Lumia 920 and some of these new features include the always-on clock and tap-to-wake up capability. Because of this, Nokia Lumia 920 users have been eagerly awaiting for Nokia to finally start rolling out the said Amber update to the handset.
The two above-mentioned features are the most notable among the treats that the Amber update is expected to bring to the handset. However, it is said that once the update has been applied to the Nokia Lumia 920, it will enable the user to record audio in stereo. For the longest time, the Nokia Lumia 920 was only able to record audio in mono despite having 3 HAAC microphones, but the Amber update is expected to change all that.
A YouTube user was able to demonstrate this new capability of the Nokia Lumia 920 after installing a leaked version of the Amber update on his handset. The user also uploaded several videos demonstrating the stereo recording on the handset. But for this feature to be fully functional, the Nokia Pro Camera application should be installed and used in capturing videos in stereo mode. Of course, it would be best to use headsets to fully differentiate the mono from the stereo sound and appreciate it at the same time.
Going back to the Nokia Lumia 920, the handset reached official status when it was unveiled back in September last year but it only managed to make its debut in the shelves a couple of months later in November. Under the hood, the handset still has an impressive set of components despite its slightly aging status. The handset runs Windows Phone 8 for its operating system and it has its circuitry built around a QualComm MSM8960 SnapDragon chipset. A dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait processor on the other hand works in conjunction with a full gigabyte of RAM in keeping the performance of the handset at peak levels. The Nokia Lumia 920 comes with 32GB of onboard storage while its display is a 4.5-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 1280 x 768 pixels. As mentioned earlier, the camera department of the handset is very impressive with its rear 8MP shooter and front 1.3MP snapper.
