It also comes in red, white, and yellow, each of which come with extremely glossy shells that I personally find garish and off-putting — but some on The Verge staff with admittedly more refined fashion sense than I still liked them.
As with the Lumia , the entire phone feels like a single, solid unit with seams in the shell only where absolutely necessary: around the screen, buttons, and ports. The buttons are all located on the righthand side, with the volume buttons on top, the power beneath them, and the usual Windows Phone camera button at bottom.
Those who switch from other phones may need a few days to get used to the placement of the power button, but it's still more convenient than buttons placed on the top. Smartphone manufacturers take note: if your screen is bigger than 4 inches or so, put the power button on the side.
The Gorilla Glass front is gently curved to fit into the overall shape of the phone. The usual three capacitive buttons sit underneath the screen, backlit in a slightly off-white color that's only discomfiting once it's pointed out to you. The Lumia isn't quite the revelation in phone design that its predecessors were, but it's in a class above the vast majority of smartphone models on the market today.
One of the features Nokia is pushing hard is support for wireless charging, based on the Qi standard. It works as advertised, but I found myself wishing Nokia had followed Palm's and now Google's lead by putting aligning magnets inside the phone. Instead you have to lay it flat and wait for the tell-tale "ding" that you're successfully charging. NFC is also onboard, and I was able to share links and contacts and the like with no issues.
You know that guy who walks into the coffee shop and unapologetically slams down a gigantic, inch monster of a laptop on the table, declaring "This thing is a beast, but I don't care. It's a muscle car. It's a monster truck. Nokia has clearly spent a lot of time perfecting the screen, paying attention to how close the pixels are to the surface and even tweaking it so that you can use it with gloves on.
I can't help but poke fun at smartphone manufacturers touting subtle refinements in their LCD displays with abstruse marketing terminology — and today it's Nokia's turn. Nokia calls this a ClearBlack display, which consists of polarizing layers of glass to help make blacks deeper and reduce reflections. It's technology that was introduced back in , and here it doesn't seem to have much effect. The blacks on the aren't nearly as deep as on the — but the tradeoff is well worth it in my opinion.
Well, the phone seems to live up to those marks: swiping around in Windows Phone 8's various screens yields sharp transitions with crisp motion. If you're basing your smartphone buying decision on such things, the is your phone.
Also, I'm really, genuinely curious as to what makes you tick. Marketing aside, this screen is gorgeous. It's a 4. Really, the only knock I can deliver against it is that it does dim a bit when you're looking at it at sharp angles. Nokia stirred up a mini-controversy back in September when it announced the Lumia would come with the same PureView branding as the Symbian handset but without the corresponding megapixel sensor.
The common thread between the PureView and the cameras is excellent image quality for those who know how to handle a high-end camera. There are two major categories in which the Lumia excels: low-light performance and image stabilization. Both rely on what Nokia calls "floating lens technology. By reducing camera shake in this fashion, Nokia can afford to keep the shutter open for longer, absorb more light, and deliver much brighter pictures.
Video recording is also a big beneficiary of the new floating lens, making for much steadier pans and allowing you to move around without destroying the quality of your video. Taking three shots of the same scene can sometimes produce as many as three different color temperatures: a beige coffee table appeared rosy in one image, a greenish yellow in the next, and the perfect pale taupe in the third.
This same issue is apparent during video capture as well, with the camera sometimes tinting the entire scene into a new palette as it determines a new color balance. Nokia is also offering some software as exclusives to the Lumia line. The "Lenses" show up as options in the camera app, allowing you to launch custom camera apps directly and have their photos saved in the Photos Hub.
It produces good results so long as you hold the camera steady. The difference, unfortunately, is that Nokia hasn't built any way to actually share the animations, a completely perplexing foible in an otherwise neat feature.
The biggest and most important change to Windows Phone 8 over previous versions is one users don't see directly: internal software plumbing shared with Windows 8. Microsoft likes to say that it has managed to change the engine on a car speeding down the freeway without slowing down, and the metaphor is an apt one.
