Nokia Lumia 920

its been "under testing" forever! I emailed nokia and cricket and both of them said it would be updated by 8/28, this is depressing

ATT finally released the update. Some nice subtle features added, but I like being able to use some of the cool Nokia apps that I couldn't use before. The glance pic app is nice. It adds a nice level of customization for the glance screen. Now, you don't have to look at m otherwise boring black screen with just the time and battery icon.

Well done Nokia. Hopefully, this app forward thinking doesn't stop, once the officially become part of MS.

I'm loving what Nokia is doing. The regular updates to their devices and software shows a strong desire to succeed.

I've used it for the first time today, on my Lumia 920. I must say, at least in my area, it is very accurate. No rerouting messages, when you don't go the exact way it tells you. It just tells you where to go, when you do. Example, I went straight, instead of making a left, and it just told me to make a u-turn, when I got to the next intersection. It also works through bluetooth, the speed limit settings work pretty good.

This navigation app should be a joy to use for most people. I plan on testing it further, when I get a chance. But, for now, I think it's one of the better navigation apps out there, I would dare say right up there with Google Drive. Actually, I do dare to say. 😁

I was really thinking of starting from scratch with a Windows Phone 8 device, coming from a T-Mobile G2 a few years ago. But I couldn't deal with switching from from T-Mobile to AT&T and paying so much more per month.

When the announcement that the off-contract Lumia 920 was $450, I was ecstatic, but that was short lived when it was confirm that AT&T would not offer unlock codes for the 920 for at least 6-months.

So I ended up buying a Nexus 4, and although it has an okay (rather than great) camera, it's buttery smooth and cost only $350 via Google Play. I may end up giving this Nexus 4 to my wife and pick-up a 920 next year, but only time will tell.

And no, I didn't care for the 810.

Eric on phonescoop's main page it says something along the lines of it being a quad core phone. Its only a dual core processor. right?

I think Print should focus on rolling out LTE before getting any other phones that subscribers won't be happy with because of network speeds.....

I see where AT&T is giving out the free wireless charging plate. I ordered the Lumia 920 on the 7th, didn't see anything about getting one of those. When I contacted AT&T about this I was told "There is no promo like that at all!"

So am I getting one of them for free or not? Anyone have any idea's on it?

I'm surprised for only $100 not the usual $199 price. I cant wait. i'm going to be one of the first people in stores to get to play with the 920. maybe i'll end up buying it???

Has anyone had any luck using these smart tags that samsung makes and using them to perform actions. (man would I love to be able to put my phone on my night table to charge and it automatically hits the lights for me...this would be using with wireless light plugs obviously but would be fun if i could get it to work... )

I'm just wondering if anyones used them and what they think of them?

How much did Best Buy pay for that story?

How does Microsoft expect for Windows Phone to take off when they're doing the one carrier B.S. again. Nokia needed to pull a Samsung and the release the phone on all carriers at once. That's the only way. Haven't they learned anything from Palm and the Sprint fiasco?

Really? does windows expect to do very well if there intro phones for windows phone 8 are only on one carrier. And I think they are waiting to long to start the sale of these new phones and their surface tablet since they announced them how long ago now.? I think I'm forgetting what was so nice about this phone anyways everyone else is coming out with new things idk...

While I do wish the Nokia would not have allowed the 920 to be exclusive to just one carrier, the fact of the matter is, there are four other very good phones to head to other carriers. Both HTC phones and that goliath of a phone, the Samsung Ativ. If I'm not mistaken, the Nokia 820 will still make an appearance on other networks.

Someone had mentioned that Microsoft shouldn't have allowed this to happen. The thing is, despite their close partnership with Nokia, Nokia is a business of its own and doesn't answer to Microsoft, when it comes to who they decide to sell to, even of they (Microsoft) may want the phone to sell on more than just one carrier. Besides, with the way things are looking for WP8, i doubt OEMs will stop at just what is...

may be my favorite new word of the year.

I'm a bit disappointed that Band IV AWS WCDMA is missing from the 920. The thought of 2.5g via T-Mobile on a phone like is like putting on a 2200 rpm engine governor and locking out the top two gears on a Ferarri. It will still look wicked but it is not going to be the full experience. ☹️ I hope there will a T-Mobile US 4G version of this down the road.

Also I am going to miss Symbian. The last seven years my phones have run on it. I know it, understand it and am quite comfortable with all of its ins and outs.

Now that the handsets caught up to Android in terms of specs lets see what WP8 has to bring to the table.
