Going back to the specs sheet of the Nokia Lumia 920 4G, the handset runs Windows Phone 8 for its operating system while its circuitry revolves around a QualComm MSM8960 SnapDragon chipset under the hood. This SoC brings into play a dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait processor and a full gigabyte of RAM to ensure that the performance of the handset is always snappy and stutter-free. In terms of storage space, the Nokia Lumia 920 4G has a very generous 32GB of internal memory but this is all you get on the handset because it doesn’t support memory expansion.
