Video: Nokia Lumia Bottle Opener test

Posted: 05 Nov 2012 09:19 AM PST

What to do if you haven’t got a bottle opener at hand? Try your phone. Well, if it’s a Nokia Lumia.

What other strange/unconventional ways have you opened bottles?

One bottle against each other? Perhaps against a table? A risky one my Vietnamese friend does is with his teeth! The Sabrage method looks cool, though you would need to pour your drink into a glass (and it is quite dangerous).

Wired’s Nokia Lumia 920 Review

Posted: 05 Nov 2012 09:16 AM PST

 

Next up, another Nokia Lumia 920 review from the influential folks at Wired.

http://www.wired.com/reviews/2012/11/nokia-lumia-920/all/

As usual, it’s all about the weight, but they’re not overly obsessed with it in a negative way, making puns such as Nokia the heavy weight. Why not. Heavy isn’t always bad. It’s nice to feel a bit of substance now and again.

They think the Nokia Lumia 920 is stunning with a killer camera and one of the best displays they’ve ever seen. It’s good to hear that  wireless charging is simple to use. It’s not enough to have the features there – they must be easy enough that they feel natural.

Conclusion:

WIRED Sleek, tasteful design with a curved glass screen. Stunning camera. Bright display with excellent color and sharpness. Nokia-built software like Nokia Maps and Nokia Music are actually very useful, well-made and great to have built into the phone.

TIRED It's big — time to reconsider the aversion to salads? Windows Phone still low on apps compared to iOS and Android. Camera's preview mode is weird, so images may turn out different than expected.

Apps. I feel it will forever be compared as lacking in this department. But are the useful apps there? Is the critical point reached yet? A big phone. Not for everyone but there are plenty of phablet fans about.

Cheers Viipottaja for the tip!

TheNextWeb’s Nokia Lumia 920 Review – a joy to use, a smartphone that stands out on merit!

Posted: 04 Nov 2012 10:44 PM PST

 

Here’s TheNextWeb with a very nice review of the Nokia Lumia 920. This is more like the reaction we were expecting. On the overall experience of using the Nokia Lumia 920, not dragging on the whole thing because of one caveat that seemed to be ignored in another similarly sized/weighted device with much less innovation.

 

 

 

On the all important weight:

Nokia doesn't expressly state why the device is heavier, but with a larger battery than most smartphones and the inclusion of a floating lens in its PureView camera setup, it doesn't really need to make excuses.

If you like a lighter device, the Lumia 920 may disappoint, but after a couple of days of use, you do become used to it.

On PureView:

I'm not sure why the company needed to resort to using DSLR cameras (in the ‘fake’ advert), because the optical image stabilisation features are seriously good.

Nokia still needs to add that ‘vibrancy’ apparently.Whilst colours may be in a more accurate colour, they appear ‘cold’ – though pictures are said to be sharp/little noise.

Battery Life:

In my tests, I was able to squeeze two full days out of the Lumia 920 on more than one occasion. This was with minimal calls and texts and an emphasis on app and web use. However, you're easily going to get a full day's intensive use out of this device with sustained use.

TheNextWeb says the Nokia Lumia edges out it’s Lumiawannabe counterpart 8x on imaging, ecosystem and overall design

Cheers Kan for the tip!
