Chunky footprint
Still missing some Windows 8.1 updates like Cortana
Its battery life doesn't impress

The Nokia Lumia 930 is the most complete Windows Phone to date and it's the first to properly challenge the flagship might in the Android and iOS camps. I was impressed with the design, even though it does have a plastic back, the enhancements in Windows...
Abstract: As an early owner of the original Windows SPV, Microsoft Zune and Surface, I've been a mostly unsatisfied customer, due to the poor support (unless you hacked them). I haven't felt like the new Windows Phones were ready, but following the release of the n...

No notification light, Limited camera modes, Windows Store has less apps than rivals
All of the things a smartphone should do, from phone calls to streaming a movie over 4G, the Lumia 930 will do without fault. It is Windows Phone refined, the quintessential incarnate of the promising software thus far...
Abstract: The Nokia Lumia 930 Windows based smart phone measues 13.5x7x.8cm and weights 165grams.My unit looks normal from the front with a not that reflective screen and matt silver looking edges, my back however was a very vibrant green but I am sure there are mo...
Abstract: The definitive review:+ Gorgeous display. Literally one of, if not the best mobile displays you'll ever set eyes on. Colours are vibrant and it's 1080p so it's crisp looking+ Two useful things: Lots of ‘kids control' to let you restrict what kids can do o...
Abstract: The Xperia Z3 Compact continues Sony's Xperia Z1 Compact philosophy: to create a miniature handset packed with the same high-end specs as the flagship device. Compared to the Xperia Z3, the Z3 Compact comes with a pretty similar looking spec sheet. Both h...
Abstract: There's another thing, though. The Lumia 930 comes with wireless charging – that holy grail occasionally attempted by technologists, but never very well. The neat charging disc that comes with the phone still needs access to the mains, but it makes your k...
The Nokia Lumia 930 may not have the staying power of other Lumia devices, but for those who want the best Windows Phone 8.1 experience in a normal-sized handset, there's simply no competition. What's more, it's now eligible for a free upgrade to Windows...
Fluid and stable video footage with 3x lossless zoom Great soundtrack quality for videos Excellent call quality
Lack of Good Google apps in app store
We found the Nokia Lumia 930 to be an excellent Windows Phone device. Perhaps the biggest virtue of the 930 is that it finally packs Nokia's PureView camera goodness into a fairly compact and manageable format, coming with solid premium build but without...
Abstract: And the year isn't even out yet, so there'll likely be a few more additions to this list before the curtain falls on 2014. Until then, however, think of all the handsets listed below as the best of the best, the cream of 2014's crop of smartphones. We've ...
