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

As if in recognition of this, the Lumia 930 comes with a decent two-week launch offer of a dinky Bluetooth speaker, a wireless charging plate and a £20 app voucher. Even after that, every 930 sold in the UK will include a wireless charging plate. So if...
If you were looking for a plasticfantastic Lumia with a full polycarbonate body, you won't find it here. Instead, Nokia's taken its onepiece construction and supplemented it with a gorgeous aluminium band that surrounds the whole phone, much like the USon
It's 2014, and today's tech means that huge phones don't have to be thick phones as well: just look at the HTC One M8, LG G3 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Nokia's not trying to keep up in this regard however, and the solid metal frame that wraps around the L
If it's Windows Phone you want, rather than a truly outstanding camera phone like the Lumia 1020, the Nokia Lumia 930 is the one you want: it's a truly cutting edge piece of hardware only let down by Windows Phone 8.1's limitations and lack of critical ma...
Slick design (radioactive colour choices notwithstanding), Fantastic camera, Gorgeous display, Speedy performance, Excellent battery life, Windows Phone 8.1 is a big improvement
Still plenty of room for Windows Phone 8.1 to grow - not yet a 100% comprehensive OS experience, No microSD, Only one storage variant
Once again, Nokia proves it can produce an absolutely stellar smartphone and this one is bang up-to-date in the hardware stakes. More than that, it's a far more practical design as a high-end, super-powered Nokia Lumia than what was provided by the Lumi...

Great screen colour and brightness, decent camera, solid build quality, Windows Phone 8.1 most compelling it's ever been
Bit on the chunky side, top gaming apps lack, camera exposures can be off, Windows Phone 8.1 still has some catch-up to do
The Lumia 930 is as close as we've got to Windows Phone's wow moment. But, in saying that, we're still on the fence about whether it's enough to lure new customers in. We love the 5-inch Full HD screen, the camera good in decent light, and the soli...
Some battery niggles, Windows Phone ecosystem not as developed as iOS and Android, on the chunky side
It's hard to imagine anyone buying this phone and not loving it. It's a pleasure to use and attractive to boot. If you are well embedded in an alternative ecosystem already you may find there are apps missing that you'd otherwise use on a...
Abstract: We took Nokia's Lumia Icon for a month-long test to really experience life with the company's flagship Windows Phone 8-based platform. Some of the benchmark results from this Snapdragon 800-powered powerhouse may surprise you. Microsoft has a history ...
