This is, hands down, the best phone I've ever experience. Once you've use all the incredible functions and features synergistically, the usefulness of every other flagship smart phone existing today, truly becomes a chore. My wife and I absolutely love our Lumia 920s. Thanks
One thing that I just love in Windows 8 is that, when you arent currently using apps they aren't in the background the RAM doesn't fill and the phone doesn't shut down and also the WP8 is so simplistic and optimiced so it's very smooth to use.
Love my Lumia 920 ,as I loved my 800. WP just works, the phone is solid ,looks stunning, great screen ,the best camera, loads of apps available. Worth buying all the way!
I am a Nokia loyalist so far and think that nobody did multitasking better than Symbian. It ran all the processes quite well and yet did not drain batteries so much! Direct comparison might give wrong picture as devices and batteries those days were far too stone age compared to today's android boxes.. wish Nokia had continued with MeeGo alongside WP8, that would have been a real successor to #Symbian
Are the capacative button lights at the bottom turned off while the screen is on? How did you do that? I've been looking high and low trying to figure it out.
There isn't Instagram in the "Windows app store" but you can put a "app"/a link to the startscreen that works exactly like a regular app but trough browser. Even tough you go there trough browser it still works pretty well when every site goes pretty much automatilly to the mobile site of the page.
I would really like to see Phonedog be less biased and show some of the great features of WP8. I hope the lack of enthusiasm for WP8 doesn't deter customers from the Lumia 920 or WP8 itself.
hands down, the battery life is awesome. I used iphone 4s before this, and you can REALLY tell the diffenrece between 1450mAh and 2000mAh battery. I can get a whole day with random browsing and whatsapp etc and still be like 60%
What about flash support for browsers? As sometimes i like to watch movies streaming through phone. Will this be an issue? As we know adobe flash has stopped developing flash for mobile
Aaron, what do you think of this fone compare to the Samsung galaxy S3? which one is better in term of performance, camera speed wise and reception strength? Thanks Aaron.
im quite amazed looking at the battery tiles...its still showing 99% left even after using it for video reviewing..even for only less than half hour...but still it didnt dropped down somehow..while on my s3...it would've dropped by 2-3%. but on some other reviews. many complaints about the battery life and this is the main matter for me, as i would like to have a great phone not only by its design and user interface but also battery life.
Why did he bypass the multi-tasking? How is it unlike Android or iOS? What about tethering and settings and file transfers via bluetooth or wifi? Does anyone know someone who reviews devices for power users?
I think if they added a quadcore rather then a duel core prosseser in the 920, and put the android OS, but otherwise all same hardwear and colors. I think that would really rock the world!
Aaron didn't quite understand the fact that wp8 has room for improvements compare to android and apple and is catching up. In my opinion. Wp8 has matured. I have android just to let people know..#1 windows phone came up with camera access while locked. #2 social network integration was nice. #3 1st to have voice command to command apps to open. #4 SMS voice response is great with the ability to respond hands free. Etc..continued below
I dont understand your comment in regards to mulit-tasking, you said "you get some multi-tasking out of the box" what does that even mean? It either does it or it does not right??
While I'd agree with this for Apple and the iPhone at least the SIII is an amazing phone. I know someone who decided against the Lumia because they were worried about issues with a new platform/operating system.
This does seem to be an awesome phone, and more than a match for anything else out there right now (ok, fanboys won't agree, but they never do) What I'd really like to see though is a 30 day challenge done with this; maybe after you finish the iPhone 5 one. Is that possible please?
You apparently don't get what I am getting at and if I am fluent in nonsense you are fluent prejudice. Best screen and camera that highly debatable. HTC has a 1080p screen, Samsung uses super amoled, Lg and iPhone use IPS screens, all of this mention screens have their benefits. Also the iPhone takes better pictures in lowlight situations. Every phone has exclusive apps and features and the ones nokia offers aren't even the best in their category. I just want nokia to survive.
Now with the new features: kids corner= brilliant. Communicating with your apps fucking amazing. For example command audible to open and play specific content, damn brolliany ... Group hub where you can share anything within that hub without sending... Lenses feature is sick.. Integration with apps are great.. Xbox connectivity.. I can go on... Apple iPhone been the same for a long time. What's new panaroma lol. Still same icons folders.lol apple maps that doesn't work right... No NFC...to be co
I hate when everyone upsells windows phones then , then last minute they decide to be bias ... It Dosnt take a tenuous to see that the Nokia lumia 920 is this & next years trend setting phone !
Because they are SAMSUNG and APPLE...Lot of people don't know which phone is better, so they go and buy an iPhone or Galaxy S III because of the name...That's why Nokia, HTC and some other good companies go down...
Well, in 2010, iPhone 4 really was the king. Android was pretty ugly and laggy back then, iPhone 4 had the best display, camera and smooth preformance. But, in 2012, it's different. GS III, DNA, Note II, Lumia 920 and few more devices are actually a lot better than the iPhone 5. Apple need a change, same thing five years...
@Dare2Blink at least not all android phones look the exact same, and there's more diversity how many Nokia limits are there Nokia lumina 900, 920, 800, 822, etc and they all look the same, outside and software, plus it's boring looking at one screen. Plus better specs and more apps in google play
If Nokia decides to make an android right now with the same specs as lumia and a Quadcore processor it would kill all the other smartphones on the market BTW i prefer Windows now android seems a little outdated not as much as ios just a little outdated
I am sorry but currently android phones are the most innovative phones out and this is not an opinion. So far every reviewer has admitted this. However my statement wasn't made because of my personal preference I said it because Nokia is having financial trouble and windows market sharing isn't growing anywhere soon. And if you have and OS that has many apps and many features then combine that with a well known hardware provider (Nokia) you can expect decent sales.
Dont get me wrong...but Aaron you forgot maybe to cover many of the main features of NL920.....optical Image stabilisation,floating lens,supersensitive screen,....you as a professional reviewer should not be biased ....but here you are heavily biased to ios and especially android.........
I don't like how you said there's more customization on android... Well android has been out for a while so hackers and what not got their hands on it already, WP8 is new and I'm sure that the hackers will figure out a way to customize it more. And customization in IOS? Moving apps around and that's it, well wallpaper too.. Woohoo.
The problem with windows phones is the apps. Spotify app for example are just crap. and the same thing with trend apps like instagram and etc. Microsoft makes there own aps that are almost the same but not the same. Like instagram. Windows have instacam. you can like and you can see other ppls pictures but not upload any.Windows are far ahead with those tiles but its some stuff they realy need to fix. for one example you cant make your own music as ringtunes. adn you cant have your own ringtunes
true but dosent answer my question. WHY IS EVERYONE addicted to Samsung? drop a nokia, floor cracks drop a iphone, cracks but works drop a Samsung, its fine but doesn't turn on
This is, hands down, the best phone I've ever experience. Once you've use all the incredible functions and features synergistically, the usefulness of every other flagship smart phone existing today, truly becomes a chore. My wife and I absolutely love our Lumia 920s. Thanks

it´s hard to decide, between the amazing camera, amazing screen and amazing build quality. Take your pick
Love the hardware that the Lumia 920 offers, but i'm not sold on the Windows Phone 8 OS. Maybe we'll get to see more of what it can do later.
Here in Europe headphones included is standard with the Noka Lumia 920 package, in USA the carrier AT&T has chosen not to include them.
Are the capacative button lights at the bottom turned off while the screen is on? How did you do that? I've been looking high and low trying to figure it out.

@SpangledeshHD by "you can't put your own wallaper" do you mean for the homescreen because on the lock screen you can
Can you connect office on windows 7 to office for windows phone 7, or do you have to have windows 8 to sync your projects
hands down, the battery life is awesome. I used iphone 4s before this, and you can REALLY tell the diffenrece between 1450mAh and 2000mAh battery. I can get a whole day with random browsing and whatsapp etc and still be like 60%
the battery life of this phone is just extremely good
What about flash support for browsers? As sometimes i like to watch movies streaming through phone. Will this be an issue? As we know adobe flash has stopped developing flash for mobile
Aaron, what do you think of this fone compare to the Samsung galaxy S3? which one is better in term of performance, camera speed wise and reception strength? Thanks Aaron.

Of course it is.... so many new things that no other phones had before. No need to be mad .
Doesn't the camera use Pureview technology? I'm surprised Aaron didn't mention this because this is HUGE in terms of photo quality.
Nokia Lumia 920 FTW! WHen will it be available in the PH?
6:18 Camera, 8:30 photo comparison, 9:23 office
Why did he bypass the multi-tasking? How is it unlike Android or iOS? What about tethering and settings and file transfers via bluetooth or wifi? Does anyone know someone who reviews devices for power users?

Etc..continued below
I'm watching this technically 8 years after!
Do they have a Burst shot feature on there?
Do you get google apps on it as well? I.e. Google voice
Don't think so. THIS hardware + JB would be the ultimate phone.
the 920 has been selling well. check nokia stock. it went up 14 cents today (good for nokia).
I dont understand your comment in regards to mulit-tasking, you said "you get some multi-tasking out of the box" what does that even mean? It either does it or it does not right??
can u make a video of Nokia Lumia 920 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 2?
While I'd agree with this for Apple and the iPhone at least the SIII is an amazing phone. I know someone who decided against the Lumia because they were worried about issues with a new platform/operating system.
aron u r doing grt job
The screen looks so much better with the lights off.
review starts at 00:43 part 2 starts at 01:59 (no recap)
Can u try to get the nokia lumia 820 and do a review
There were 3 updates and 1 coming in april since this video was uploaded.
Ah excellent thanks for clearing it up
This does seem to be an awesome phone, and more than a match for anything else out there right now (ok, fanboys won't agree, but they never do) What I'd really like to see though is a 30 day challenge done with this; maybe after you finish the iPhone 5 one. Is that possible please?
this phone definitely smoked S3 and iPhone5 ima get this soon :)
Did nokia lumia 920 have Tellme?
If yes,Could you compare Tellme and Siri?
Ofcourse it is... So many new features in it...
@KevinXC94 that's what I just said , even if you never saw it till now it's obvious that this phone is the business!!
beautiful phone. I really want one, but I hate at&t.
You apparently don't get what I am getting at and if I am fluent in nonsense you are fluent prejudice. Best screen and camera that highly debatable. HTC has a 1080p screen, Samsung uses super amoled, Lg and iPhone use IPS screens, all of this mention screens have their benefits. Also the iPhone takes better pictures in lowlight situations. Every phone has exclusive apps and features and the ones nokia offers aren't even the best in their category. I just want nokia to survive.
better would be to compare NL920 vs SGS3.....i would also love that comparison.....Note 2 is a different sort of device
i just realized this phone matches the words on battlefield 3 lmao
Kind of an incomplete review. How's the battery life? What about the new camera stabilization feature? How about the super sensitive screen?
Now with the new features: kids corner= brilliant. Communicating with your apps fucking amazing. For example command audible to open and play specific content, damn brolliany ... Group hub where you can share anything within that hub without sending... Lenses feature is sick.. Integration with apps are great.. Xbox connectivity.. I can go on... Apple iPhone been the same for a long time. What's new panaroma lol. Still same icons folders.lol apple maps that doesn't work right... No NFC...to be co
The Lumina 920 seems to be a cool device, maybe it's me but I'm not too impressed with Windows Phone 8 so I'll be sticking with android phones
why are you not impressed with wp8? It´s smoother, more stable and you don´t have to worry about viruses/trojans.
I hate when everyone upsells windows phones then , then last minute they decide to be bias ... It Dosnt take a tenuous to see that the Nokia lumia 920 is this & next years trend setting phone !
But will it blend?
Lol Aaron why you have no contacts on your ''People'' tile?
Because they are SAMSUNG and APPLE...Lot of people don't know which phone is better, so they go and buy an iPhone or Galaxy S III because of the name...That's why Nokia, HTC and some other good companies go down...
I was hoping you would be more elaborate, thanks anyway!
sounds good
Im finnish guy, and i have to wait 2 freaking weaks to get this phone, because retailers sold these products away.
In your opinion what is the #1 reason to get a Luma 920 ? anyone ?
That's cool, that's you...
Is this better than I phone 4
lumia 920, best phone ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!
0:42 part 2 starts
you can make you own music as ringrunes...
Nokia won't make an android phone. WP is here to stay and good that you're buying it. I can't wait to buy mine, when it goes down in price.
Could you see yourself using this phone on a day to day basis, personal + work ?
I'm buying this phone BUT Nokia should atleast make 1 awesome android phone just for the betterment of their reputation
Well, in 2010, iPhone 4 really was the king. Android was pretty ugly and laggy back then, iPhone 4 had the best display, camera and smooth preformance. But, in 2012, it's different. GS III, DNA, Note II, Lumia 920 and few more devices are actually a lot better than the iPhone 5. Apple need a change, same thing five years...
I have an s3 I would have got the lumia 920 if it wasnt only for at&t
The best actuallly
@Dare2Blink at least not all android phones look the exact same, and there's more diversity how many Nokia limits are there Nokia lumina 900, 920, 800, 822, etc and they all look the same, outside and software, plus it's boring looking at one screen. Plus better specs and more apps in google play
@dyslecix windows phone 8 is innovative
If Nokia decides to make an android right now with the same specs as lumia and a Quadcore processor it would kill all the other smartphones on the market BTW i prefer Windows now android seems a little outdated not as much as ios just a little outdated
I will tell you the multitasking is better than the HTC one x which has no multitasking at all
Makes me sick 63 degrees in November.... lucky sod
The lumia 920 is by far the best , I'm gonna get mine a.s.a.p
I know but DJCelestio only sees nokia as being the best.
Sure...show a really cool camera app by taking a pic of a desk. Dude, come on!
I think nokia should make a phone with android might help them survive.
no way did you charge the phone between part 1 and part 2. things like that will murder your battery in the long run.
is this the first time you've done something in your life?
Just spend 10 minutes repeating your self with everything you said in part 1.. Good Stuff
I am sorry but currently android phones are the most innovative phones out and this is not an opinion. So far every reviewer has admitted this. However my statement wasn't made because of my personal preference I said it because Nokia is having financial trouble and windows market sharing isn't growing anywhere soon. And if you have and OS that has many apps and many features then combine that with a well known hardware provider (Nokia) you can expect decent sales.
sounds right
since when is iOS customisable??
If you have a Windows phone and you love customizing, MegaTile and My Tiles are MUST HAVE APPS!!
Thank me later =D
Dont get me wrong...but Aaron you forgot maybe to cover many of the main features of NL920.....optical Image stabilisation,floating lens,supersensitive screen,....you as a professional reviewer should not be biased ....but here you are heavily biased to ios and especially android.........
Good review...great phone...but why does Aaron always talk like he's on a sugar rush lol
I don't like how you said there's more customization on android... Well android has been out for a while so hackers and what not got their hands on it already, WP8 is new and I'm sure that the hackers will figure out a way to customize it more.
And customization in IOS? Moving apps around and that's it, well wallpaper too.. Woohoo.
i got the red one after watching
Why didn't u use the auto on the Lumia it works better
You have got to be kidden me ._____________.
It blows it on every aspect.
Skip to 00:43 to get past the fluff and to the review.
not yet maybe a year from now than maybe.
They won't make an android phone, never.
Black colour on the screen of Lumia920 is grey... that's sad.
nice
@MillionKnivesRain Meil samat :D
The problem with windows phones is the apps.
Spotify app for example are just crap.
and the same thing with trend apps like instagram and etc.
Microsoft makes there own aps that are almost the same but not the same.
Like instagram.
Windows have instacam. you can like and you can see other ppls pictures but not upload any.Windows are far ahead with those tiles but its some stuff they realy need to fix.
for one example you cant make your own music as ringtunes.
adn you cant have your own ringtunes
true but dosent answer my question. WHY IS EVERYONE addicted to Samsung?
drop a nokia, floor cracks
drop a iphone, cracks but works
drop a Samsung, its fine but doesn't turn on
