At the moment, the Nokia Lumia 920 is one of the only two available high-end devices in the Windows Phone ecosystem along with the HTC Windows Phone 8X. The handset is the flagship device of the Finnish smartphone manufacturer for the platform and this status simply means that the Nokia Lumia 920 comes with an impeccable resume composed of fire-breathing components under its hood housed in a very attractive exterior. In US shores, the Nokia Lumia 920 was released by AT&T where the handset is an exclusive with the carrier and has always consistently placed among the bestsellers of Ma Bell.
The Nokia Lumia 920 4G is available for a reduced sale price now starting at $19.99.
However, that is not the only good thing going on for the Nokia Lumia 920. The handset has been adjudged as the most popular Windows Phone handset for a couple of months now based on the figures released by AdDuplex and the latest numbers show the handset increasing its lead over other Windows Phone-powered devices.
Going back to the April 2013 numbers, the Nokia Lumia 920 back then only had a small lead over the older Nokia Lumia 800 and when their percentages are rounded up, both handsets end up with 14%. However, the latest data now shows the current Nokia flagship still at the lead with 13.1% whereas the Lumia 800 falls to the third spot with just 11.2% while the second spot has already been taken over by the Nokia Lumia 710 with 12.1%. The numbers by the way are representative of market share of Windows Phone devices worldwide which simply means that the Nokia Lumia 920 is surging ahead in terms of popularity among all the Windows Phone handsets available on a global scale.
This popularity of the Nokia Lumia 920 however is not surprising at all. As mentioned earlier, it is the flagship device of the Finnish manufacturer and with only the HTC Windows Phone 8X as competitor in the high-end category, Windows Phone fanboys have a tendency to opt for the Nokia flagship because the handset offers the most complete package in the Windows Phone ecosystem.
The Nokia Lumia 920 reached official status when it was unveiled back in September last year but the handset only managed to make its debut in the shelves a couple of months later in November of the same year. The handset has measurements of 130.3 x 70.8 x 10.7 mm and is rather hefty at its catch weight of 185 grams.
Under the hood, the circuitry of the Nokia Lumia 920 revolves around a QualComm MSM8960 SnapDragon chipset which in turn brings into play a dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait processor and a full gigabyte of RAM. These two components work hand in hand in generating the computing power required by the handset for a snappy and buttery-smooth operation. Although the Nokia Lumia 920 comes with a very generous 32GB of onboard storage, this is all you get in the device because memory expansion is not supported. Its display on the other hand is a 4.5-inch IPS LCD panel with a 1280 x 768 resolution while its camera department features a rear 8MP shooter and a front 1.3MP snapper.
The Nokia Lumia 920 4G can be purchased for a discounted price tag now starting at $19.99.
