AT&T Nokia Lumia 920 Review

 

With the Nokia Lumia 920 we’ve been promised a hero device forWindows Phone 8, and indeed it has been defended several time before its release by Nokia and Microsoft – in so many words. But is Nokia’s Nokia’s brand power enough to make us believe the hype? This is supposed to be a “fundamental shift” right along with the wave of Windows 8 touchscreen devices that are currently on their way to retail stores and homes right this minute – is it time for Nokia to shine?

This device comes with PureView – Nokia’s way of saying that they’ve dedicated their best workers in the imaging department to create a fabulous media experience. What’s that mean in the real world? It means that when you’re taking photos here, you’re going to have a difficult time taking something that’s absolutely terrible. This camera’s mix of hardware and software create a situation in which you’re going to be able to take still photos even with a shaky hand and will be shooting video with lovely results even with a little stutter in your fingers.

The colors can be odd – while most of the time we’re getting photos that look good, often they don’t appear to be “correct.” Have a peek at our Nokia Lumia 920 camera hands-on post (with bonus comparison to the Samsung Galaxy S III and see how diverse the photos can be. These color variations as well as the end result of photos that with one device appear to be much sharper than the Lumia 920 mean that we’ve got software at work here that attempts to create for you a finished image – not just something raw, but one that always looks “good.”

Above you’ll see three photos of the same subject matter – notice how they’re each ever-so-slightly different in their temperature and sharpness. While this has a little to do with the photographer and non-machine-precision, it’s not impossible to see how the Lumia 920 is processing differently – the photo that’s warmest was taken with the physical camera shutter button while the other two were taken with a tap to the screen.
