The editors didn't like
Phone is heavy
Heavier than the Galaxy Note II
Windows Phone 8's ecosystem still feels limited
OS is locked down
Like iOS
And Android
Though a locked OS makes it safer and poses less security risks to viruses
Camera can still require some configura
Very heavy and bulky
App ecosystem remains deficient
Some issues with LTE reception
The PureView camera underperforms during the day
Resulting in soft photos with muted colors. Phone may be too big for some but the weight issue is overstated. Limited carrier availability
Bulky build and has fewer app options than other smartphones
Huge and heavy. Windows Phone has fewer and different apps from more popular platforms
A thick
Heavy build and slippery finish for some colors make the Lumia 920 harder to hold and carry
And the phone's overhyped camera doesn't have enough settings.
Windows Phone app selection lags behind the more established competition from iOS and Android
Windows Phone app selection l
Heavy
Limited WP8 apps
Lacks comprehensive photo editing options
Expensive
Heaviest smartphone on the market
Gets very hot
Battery runs down fast
AT&T LTE stinks
Size and weight of handset may be a drawback for some users
Software is still lacking some popular apps and features
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
A bit large and heavy
No removable battery
Not available on all carriers
Nokia can do much better when it comes to camera sensor imaging quality
Nokia Drive doesn't work with the Speech UI
Nokia Maps isn't as well-integrated as Bing Maps
Purchasin
App Store is embarrassing
Casing (at least the matte one) is prone to scuffs
Core apps need work
Limited availability
No micro SD
Bulky feeling
Nagging call quality issue
Image quality can't match iPhone 5 for daytime shots. Syncing large quantity of photos can be slow on Mac. Many developers slow to update apps for Windows Phone 8. Mac sync app requires OS X Lion or higher
Some might find it too heavy
Bulky build. Fewer app options than other smartphones hinder the phone's full potential.

Nokia doesn’t mess around with hardware: the striking, plastic unibody design of the Nokia Lumia 900 is back, and the 720p HD screen dazzles. The camera meanwhile delivers on Nokia’s PureView promise: the results are simply astounding, especially in low light.This is the best camera phone and HD video recorder since the Nokia N8 (not counting the 808 PureView, a monster of a phone that wasn’t sol
The Nokia Lumia 920 is handsome in its own way. But its own way seems to have involved a lot of that weight gain powder body-builders like to guzzle: this thing is enormous. People would have written epic poetry about it in centuries gone by, or worshipped it as a god.Even though the screen is smaller than that of the the HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy S3, the Nokia Lumia 920 is far thicker througho
Is the Nokia Lumia 920 the best Windows Phone ever? Absolutely. Is it the best camera phone you can buy today? Yes and yes. But think long and hard if you’re ready for Windows Phone: this phone’s a tank, and it won’t have all the apps and games you mig...
Windows Phone 8, excellent screen, fast processor, Nokia apps,
Smaller app store than rivals, on the chunky side
Microsoft maintains such a tight hold on the specs for Windows Phone that the WP8 experience is going to be very similar, whichever handset you're using. However, the bundled free apps from Nokia, as well as the excellent screen and speedy processor al...

The Nokia Lumia 920 is a powerful Windows Phone with a large, stunning screen and excellent exclusive apps from Nokia. But we were disappointed with the camera function, which is too inconsistent and sometimes a letdown. It ultimately cost a whole star fo...
