Nokia Lumia 1020 – Specs And Review

The best camera phone I ever saw! The Lumia 1020 may be the only smartphone that has a 41MP PureView technology camera. Amazing way to take photos with awesome cp. I think theres no any smartphone like Galaxy Zoom can match the technology use by Nokia inside their camera phone. So portable to use and much slimmer compared to Galaxy Zoom having a difference of 5mm.

I think, Nokia can get back there lost title against Samsung since the World’s top selling  mobiles with this awesome phone. The two device (Galaxy Zoom and Lumia 1020) are experiencing the same price. But Lumia 1020 got a better specs than the Galaxy Zoom.

THE GOOD SIDE

Having a Lumia 1020 is like having a professional camera within your pocket. So why get a professional camera if theres a Lumia 1020? And contemplate this, your professional camera can't do things that of a Windows Phone are able to do.  With this phone, we could take picture like a real professional one.

THE BAD SIDE

The only worst thing Lumia 1020 got could be the absence of card slot. User cannot use memory card, also it makes hard for some user to transfers file offline. Their only option is cloud. And also its a little bit heavier than its other rivals. But I’m still happy for this phone.
