The editors didn't like
Chunky footprint
Still missing some Windows 8.1 updates like Cortana
Its battery life doesn't impress
It's quite a chunky beast
Windows Phone 8.1 doesn't come with the Cortana voice assistant outside of the US and the platform still suffers from a mediocre app selection
Poor audio quality
Heavy
Noticeable heat build-up
No expandable storage
Thick body
Somewhat chunky
Photos often have inaccurate colors
Cumbersome nano SIM card format
Camera metering is often dodgy. App quality continues to be Windows Phone's Achilles' heel.
No headset included
Color reproduction inaccuracies
No microSD slot
High heat emissions under full load
Heavier than comparable devices
More power consumption than Android or iOS smartphones

The Lumia 930 with Windows Phone 8.1 is a step in the right direction with its semi-metal design and decent hardware line-up. However, it's up against tough competition and the thriving iOS and Android app stores. Look out for a full review soon...
Feels solid in the hands; Great screen; Solid 4G performance; Windows 8.1 is a huge improvement over WP8; Camera button is still a great inclusion; Excellent camera with the ability to shoot in Digital Negative (DNG);
Colour bodies may not be to everyone's liking; No microSD slot (whyyyyyy?!); Mediocre battery life;
With every generation of Nokia 9 series, we see the best in class four-to-five incher that the company can come up with, and just like previous 900′s, the Lumia 930 is right now the best Nokia you can have without owning a 6 inch phone.But if we had to ch...

With its great display, brilliant camera and attractive, colourful design, the Nokia Lumia 930 has most of what you'd expect from a top-end Windows Phone device. It's battery lets it down though and with an unimpressive selection of apps still available ...
No notification light, Limited camera modes, Windows Store has less apps than rivals

Look, that app thing sounds bad, but it's a problem that's getting better. That's common of the whole platform, too: the problems are all getting better, to the point that I'd almost be happy living with the Lumia 930 as my everyday device. That's thanks...
