Launched on November 9 on the speedy AT&T 4G LTE system in the United States, the Nokia Lumia 920 delivers the Windows Phone 8 operating system, a true HD screen, and blazing 4G connectivity. The handset also boasts what is one of the highest pixel densities of all smartphones, and a Carl Zeiss optics package on its rear facing high resolution camcorder. The handset is also currently sale priced for the holiday at the Amazon Wireless store for around $69 on contract.
The Nokia Lumia 920 is available for a reduced price tag now starting at $49.99.
This is the first Windows Phone 8 handset made by Nokia that delivers a modern dual core processor, as well as the first by that smartphone manufacturer with a true HD screen. That display is also one of the larger found on any smartphone, and your Microsoft powered laptop, desktop, mobile PC and Xbox video game console meshes perfectly with your Nokia Lumia 920 smartphone thanks to the Windows Phone 8 operating system.
The 4.5 inch ClearBlack display uses technology which gives it one of the best viewing abilities of any smartphone at extreme angles and in direct sunlight, and Nokia calls this their “fastest LCD display” ever manufactured. They are referring to the refresh rate, which is up to 2.5 times faster than the typical smartphone, and the new hypersensitive touchscreen technology allows you to use your Nokia Lumia 920 handset even while wearing gloves.
The resolution we mentioned earlier is extremely high at 768 x 1,280 pixels, and that is delivered at an exceptionally high 332 pixels per inch. The IPS LCD on the Nokia Lumia 920 4G boasts more than 16 million separate colors, while a second generation layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 2 protects your screen against chipping and scratching.
At 17.0 hours of talk time from a single charge of the on board 2,000 mA battery, the handset delivers roughly twice the 4G smartphone average, and standby time runs approximately 16.7 days. Facebook, YouTube, Picasa and Twitter applications have been pre-installed into the Nokia Lumia 920, and the handset delivers the most out-of-the-box, built-in data storage at 32 GB. SkyDrive cloud storage is provided at 7 GB, and the handset is powered by a dual core 1.5 GHz Krait central processor.
A Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 chip set with LTE radio is on board, and 1.0 GB of RAM system memory is present. The 8.7 megapixel camcorder is embellished by ceramic zirconium camera detailing, and offers Carl Zeiss optics, extrawide video and image capture, and PureView technology, recording video in 1,920 x 1,080 pixels (1,080p HD resolution). A front facing VGA quality chat cam is also on board.
You can purchase the popular Nokia Lumia 920 for a reduced price now starting at $49.99.
