Nokia Lumia 920 - first impressions
By:
Ravi Panjwani
On: Thursday, September 06, 2012
Nokia is pinning its hopes on its new Lumia handsets with Windows Phone 8 but how good are they? Matt Warman tries out the Lumia 920.
The fresh Nokia Lumia
920 mobile phone is the most excellent the company has ever made – its 4.5”
screen curves round a pleasantly solid body that surround a camera that’s so
clever it can even work out when public walked in front of your shot, or add
some moving fundamentals to still photographs. Its maps now flawlessly add
content from the web to show the street you’re walking down in splendid
‘augmented reality’. Wireless charging means that even your bedside table or
desk will look neater thanks to Nokia.
There is,
of course, a ‘but’ – the operating system, Windows Phone, is struggling to
attract users and Microsoft’s overall market share is still falling. Nokia
couldn’t get its act together to release prices or release dates for its
latest, lovely handset. That basic blunder is not one that Apple will make when
it announces the iPhone 5 next week, or that Samsung makes when it launches
important new products.
The
Windows Phone 8 software remains excellent – its start screen has been upgraded
to use space more effectively, live tiles continue to offer constant updates.
Nokia itself has worked hard with partners to build apps that provide real
enhancements for the camera, and the package comes together to make sure
consumers feel that they’re always using one coherent device rather than a
phone that is constantly having new apps bolted uncomfortably onto it.
Offline
maps, too, work so well that the satnav is even more redundant than it was
before, because they’re built in properly to the phone. In the short time I had
hands-on with the phone, all the camera features worked effectively, and the
wireless charging is a neat addition, but of course still relies on users being
near to a charger, albeit one that is now wireless in its connection to the
phone.
The
biggest challenge Nokia faces in the UK is not that there aren’t many users who
will soon be buying their first smartphone and could be tempted by a Windows
Phone. In an objective world, it would probably be the most tempting on the
market. The real problem is that to attain the critical mass Windows Phone
needs, it must, led by Nokia, steal users from Android and Apple. While that
ought to be perfectly possible, it’s hard to see anybody managing, even with
pockets as deep as Microsoft’s. The Windows maker can’t afford to fail, but it
will need many more devices at least as good as the 920 to reach its goal.
