Nokia Lumia 920 gets official, packs a lot of goodies

The Nokia Lumia 920 is now official as the Finnish company unveiled one of their first Windows Phone 8 device to the public during their recently-held Nokia World 2012.

This new flagship phone will be packing a dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 CPU (Krait) which is fairly comparable to quad-core chips such as NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 in some benchmark tests. RAM is at 1GB while internal storage is at 32GB with no room for a microSD.

It will also have the same curved glass design as the Lumia 900 in front but a glossy finish on its back instead of the premium matte finish that we love from before. You’ll get a 4.5-inch PureMotion HD+ display which has a 1280 x 768 resolution and is 25% brighter than the best panels out in the market. It’s like their ClearBlack display on steroids.

Nokia also demonstrated the screen’s “œSuper Sensitive Touch” which lets you play with it even when you’re wearing gloves. A very practical feature not found in capacitive touch screens.

Nokia puts the PureView name on the 8-megapixel Carl Zeiss optics of the Lumia 920 even though it’s not the same as the Nokia PureView 808. It promises good hardware image stabilization and impressive low-light performance though from what the company calls “œfloating lens”.

You’ll also get NFC support here, LTE connectivity, and Nokia’s largest battery ever (2000mAh) plus wireless charging via Qi technology and a number of wireless charging accessories that they also showcased.
