Nokia Lumia 820 has hit the Kenyan market running and comes with superior features

If you wanted a phone with a huge memory then Nokia Lumia 820 comes in handy. The phone is  a beast of sorts and dwarfs competitors on many fronts.

With a micro SD card which can store up to 64 GB, it has in-built capacity of 8GB  to improve its memory capping.

Lumia 820 comes in with a special Carl Zeiss camera which is 8 mega pixels the camera is autofocus camera with LED flash, 1080p@30fps video recording . These features are cool enough to generate a video for you. Remeber those trips, birthdays or parties? You can document them digitally using Lumia 820.

Unlike the Nokia N8 version with a 12 mega pixel camera,  Lumia 820 hasa  less superior camera but the quality of pictures is good for publishing and instant posting on Pintrest, Facebook and sharing on twitter. In short it has powerful and user freindly features for the social media ardents.

Slender, sleek and likeable Nokia’s Lumia 820 is a confirmation of the superiority of Finnish product of finesse. How it will compete with Androids in the market remains to be seen as it comes with windows features.

My only qualm with this Nokia version  is that you need strong thumb  nail to open up the phone to fix your sim card.

Users who keep  short nails are pained by the exercise which not very pleasant. Nokia can do better or just make sure the sim cards can be fixed from the exterior like N8.

Two colleagues in the have approached me to help them open their phones after they struggled in vain. This area needs revision by the manufaturers.

The Lumia 820 phone comes in very cool colours for those who do not love my favourite black. There enough luminous colours ranges from lime green to pink, blue and red. The choice is yours to this end.

Lumia 820 comes with extras that many will hardly use locally and include a voice-guided navigation and Nokia Music that you simply just sign up and enjoy. The music part must be the best of experiences for young users who always plug their ears with headphones.

It is one of the greatest phones in recent times that is user friendly and designed with social media in the mind. A try will take you places.
