The 9.9mm thick Nokia Lumia 820 is a mid-range phone, but it’s no lightweight: at 160g, it’s almost as chunky as its bigger brother. But unlike the 920 though, that heft works: the curved edges make it comfortable to hold, and the bright coloured back is easy on the eye. It sits flush with the screen, but it actually prises off, letting you insert a micro SD card of up to 64GB in size.In fact, we...
The display on the Nokia Lumia 820 isn’t all sunshine and lollipops and outdoor visibility: the 800x480 resolution is pretty low, and while colours pop, text looks grainy, something the HD Lumia 920 doesn’t suffer from.
