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.
The Nokia Lumia 920's biggest downfall is the fact that it weighs nearly half a pound, but if that doesn't matter then you should give Microsoft Windows 8 a try! ...
Nokia's Lumia 920 makes quite a few statements. For one, it's one of the most uniquely designed phones of 2012. The flat, pastel color options and the choice to use a unibody polycarbonate shell instead of the typical "cheap, black plastic" sets Nokia apa...
