Nokia\u2019s Lumia 822 for Verizon offers you the essentials in a phone including 4G Speed, NFC, and expandable memory.\u00a0 Its design however is very basic and lacks any flare to set it apart from the competition.<\/p>\n
The 822\u2019s screen is very sharp.\u00a0 Its AMOLED display allows Windows\u2019 Live Tiles to reach their full potential and provides for great visuals.\u00a0 Pictures also look great on the phone with an 8MP main camera and a 1.2MP vanity camera.\u00a0 The camera incorporates Carl Zeiss optics which allows for sharp colors and high picture quality. \u00a0All this would be for nothing if it did not have the speed and processing power to run everything.\u00a0 Fortunately this is not an issue with its 1.5 GHz dual core processor making sure the phone extremely responsive to your every command.<\/p>\n
The place that the Lumia falls short is its design.\u00a0 First impression of the phone was its very heavy feel in your hands when you are using it.\u00a0 The corners on the phone are rounded and the edges around the phone are relatively square.\u00a0 This style gives the phone a block like feel that is anything but trendy.\u00a0 A positive side on the design front is the removable back cover that gives you access to a removable battery and an SD card slot capable of boosting your phone\u2019s memory up to 64 GB above the standard 16 GB of internal storage.<\/p>\n
Windows mobile has also been getting more and more apps in their store every day.\u00a0 Though it is not as extensive as Android or Apple, the essentials like Facebook, YouTube, and even a few cool Nokia apps such as City Lens which gives you an augmented overlay using your phones camera of nearby restaurants, landmarks, and other important places.<\/p>\n
While the Lumia 822 was able to hold its own in the hardware department, in the end the phone\u2019s boring design may be its downfall.\u00a0 With a $49.99 price tag however, some people may be able to look past this as it presents a low cost alternative to competitors.<\/p>\n
