DELHI: After a long delay, Nokia has brought the much anticipated Lumia
620 to India, quelling demand for an affordable Windows Phone 8-powered
smartphone. This decent-looking phone offers all the WP8 and Nokia goodness in a package that costs under Rs 15,000, making it a good alternative for those who want something exciting other than Android phones in this price range.
While the package sounds good on paper, we wanted to try out Lumia 620 first hand before passing the judgement. Well, here is the review of Nokia Lumia 620.
Hardware:
Nokia Lumia 620 features a 3.8-inch ClearBlack Display screen with 800x480p resolution and 246ppi pixel density. It has a 1GHz dual-core processor and 512MB RAM under the hood and a 1,300mAh battery to power the package. For storage, you get 8GB on-board storage, 7GB SkyDrive space and microSD expansion up to 64GB. On the connectivity front, the phone offers 2G, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, NFC and microUSB 2.0. For imaging, Nokia has used a 5MP camera with LED flash on the back and a VGA secondary camera in the front.
When it comes to designing, Nokia has clearly focused on making Lumia 620 look vibrant and youthful in a time when phones do not come in too many lively colours. Our review unit was cyan (blue) in colour, though the device is also available in green, orange, magenta and yellow hues. For those who want something rather toned down, Lumia 620 is available in white and black colours.
The plastic shell of the phone is removable and seems sturdy and can take a few hits, as we tested this by dropping the phone a few times to see how durable it was.
Below the touchscreen of Nokia Lumia 620 are the three standard keys used on the WP platform - Home, Back and Search. Above the screen are the sensors and secondary camera, while the earphone jack is on top. On the back is the 5MP camera, LED flash and speaker grille; the microUSB port is at the bottom. The volume rocker, Power/Lock and Camera key are on the right side of the display, while the left is barren. Overall, the phone is easy to handle and fits in the palm easily, though it is quite small when compared to the phablets that are flooding the market nowadays.
