What People Are Saying Give it to me straight
Screen
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)Daytime close-up auto settings: Light levels a little too bright here but details has been picked up nicely.
by PhoneArena (Nov, 2012)The portrait option is very good, especially considering the aspect ration of the screen, which makes it a bit wider than the standard 16:9 displays that we have nowadays.
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)Screen size itself is becoming far more of a subjective issue anyway with a device on offer at pretty much every stage from pocket-friendly smartphone to sofa-surfing tablet.
Camera
by GSM Arena (Nov, 2012)The camera has a 26mm wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture and a dual-LED flash.
by GSM Arena (Nov, 2012)Nokia has preloaded the Smart Shoot lens, which is by far the most powerful, and you can also download the Panorama and Cinemagraph lenses.
by GSM Arena (Nov, 2012)The back of the device is where the 8MP camera lens and dual LED flash can be found.
Carrier
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)If you want to change your pictures, you can access some rudimentary editing tools by selecting the offending photo and tapping the three dots.
by PhoneArena (Nov, 2012)The latter allows you to listen to predefined music mixes for free, or even create your own, by choosing up to three artists you want to listen to.
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)Neither MKV nor MTS would play on the handset.
Apps
by PhoneArena (Nov, 2012)Your multimedia-centric hub is Music+Video, where you'll find your content as well as access to Microsoft's Xbox Music Store and Nokia Music.
by GSM Arena (Nov, 2012)The Application section starts with a featured app, then it's on to the categories (you can list all or free apps only), followed by the top apps, a list of new ones and a longer list of featured apps.
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)If you decide to create an account it will scan your on-board music and curate a mix of music it thinks you'll enjoy.
Video
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)It's capable of shooting stills at up to 3264x2448 pixels and video at full HD 1080p resolution.
by TechRadar (Apr, 2013)You won't miss the extra inches because this is a crisp, clear display that makes watching video on the move a real pleasure.
by GSM Arena (Nov, 2012)The bitrate of the 1080p video was a steady 21 Mbps while the framerate hovered around the 30 fps mark.
