Nokia Lumia 1020 Smart Phone
Thought to procure Nokia Lumia 1020
Nokia’s Lumia 1020. Like all new Nokia smartphones, it’s a Windows Phone 8 model. But that’s a secondary fact. The most interesting thing about the 1020 is that it packs a breakthrough camera, one so good that it’s as reasonable to think of this gadget as a camera that makes calls as a phone that takes pictures.
People — myself included — got excited when Nokia announced the 808 PureView last year, a phone which offered similar camera capabilities but ran the moribund Symbian operating system. With the Lumia 1020, the technology arrives in a phone you might actually want to buy. It’s available from AT&T for $300 with a two-year contract, or $660 without any strings attached. That’s for a model with 32GB of non-upgradable storage.
Like other Nokia phones I’ve used dating back to the last millennium, the Lumia 1020 is made of sturdy, high-grade plastic, feeling more like a solid hunk than a shell stuffed with electronics. (At 5.57 oz., it’s noticeably heavier than the iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One.) It’s got a 4.5″ AMOLED screen — roomy, but not remarkably so by today’s standards.
