Nokia Lumia 620 Hands on Review | Exclusive Introduction
The Fins need the second major WP release to work as the Lumia lineup is Nokia's only shot at staying afloat in the long run. Samsung and Apple's onslaught is strong - almost brutal when looking at Samsung's numbers in the Android camp - and a previous go-to manufacturer like Nokia can only have one thing in mind: revenge.
Nokia will certainly be hoping that the global launch of the Lumia 620 will help it push more WP smartphones in the first three months of the year, despite the weaker seasonal demand, as It makes the platform more affordable than ever.
Besides, the Lumia 620 holds a less vulnerable position in the midrange market, leaving it to worry about only two rivals - the Huawei W1 and the Windows Phone 8S by HTC. Let's have a look at the colorful Lumia 620's strengths and weaknesses:
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
Quad-band 3G with 21 Mbps HSDPA and 5.7 Mbps HSUPA support
3.8" 16M-color ClearBlack LCD display with WVGA resolution
5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash, 720p@30fps video recording
VGA front-facing camera
Windows Phone 8 OS
1.0 GHz dual-core Krait CPU, Adreno 305 GPU, 512 MB of RAM
Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, dual-band
GPS receiver with A-GPS and GLONASS support
8 GB of inbuilt storage, expandable through the microSD card slot (up to 64 GB)
Active noise cancellation with a dedicated mic
Built-in accelerometer, gyroscope and proximity sensor
Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
1300 mAh user-replaceable battery
microUSB port with file transfers
Bluetooth v3.0 with A2DP and EDR
NFC support
Full Office Mobile experience
Great build quality
Free lifetime voice-guided navigation via Nokia Drive
Excellent social integration
Xbox Live integration and Xbox management
Nokia Music streaming service
7 GB worth of SkyDrive storage
Attractive price
Main disadvantages
WP app catalog falls short of Android and iOS
No FM radio
No system-wide file manager
No lockscreen shortcuts
Removing the back panel is testing
And finally, we come to the OS itself. Windows Phone 8 is behind on the quality app count but it's quick to catch up and doing a pretty good job of getting developers interested. It's also a breath of fresh air for all those tired of the iOS and Android way of doing things - swipe-able homescreens, folders, notification areas, etc.
To sum it all up, the Lumia 620 has a nice set of assets to woo newcomers and gather back some of the lost momentum for Nokia - there's only the users to convince and the HTC Windows Phone 8S and Huawei W1 to beat. We'll endeavor to see if the Lumia has what it takes - starting with a tour of the hardware.
