Nokia Lumia 920
Nokia Lumia 920 is a smartphone that was developed and is marketed by Nokia; it runs the Windows Phone 8 operating system. It was announced on September 5, 2012, and was first released on November 2, 2012. It has a 1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Krait CPU and a 114 mm (4.5") IPS TFT LCD display, as well as a high-sensitivity capacitive touchscreen that is covered by curved Gorilla Glass. It supports inductive charging (it can be charged by being placed directly onto a charging pad) and is compatible with Qi Inductive Charging; further, it features an 8.7 megapixel PureView camera with optical image stabilisation for still images and videos. It comes with 32 GB internal storage, but has no card slot; hence it cannot be expanded with memory cards. Its touchscreen also can be used by gloves; it is the first smartphone that be thus operated without special gloves.
Like its predecessors, the Lumia 900 and 800, and starting with the N9, the Nokia Lumia 920 has a coloured unibody polycarbonate shell with glossy and matte finishes. Available colours include glossy yellow, glossy red, glossy white, matte cyan, matte grey and matte black.
The Nokia Lumia 920 runs the Windows Phone 8 operating system. As with other Lumia devices, the 920 includes Nokia-exclusive apps, like Nokia City Lens, an augmented reality software that gives dynamic information about users' surroundings using the camera.
It also includes turn-by-turn voice guided navigation, Nokia Drive 3 which can be also used without internet connexion using preinstalled maps. Other bundled apps include Nokia Maps, Nokia Transport, and Nokia Music, which streams thousands of songs for free.
The Lumia 920 contains the Nokia Smart Shoot app, which lets users capture the best parts of a photo by using a lens for the Camera app that takes a number of photos in quick succession. This application integrates technology from Scalado which was acquired by Nokia in 2012.
Carrier locked devices from AT&T will get updates much earlier than other devices, including carrier unlocked devices.
