Nokia Announces Lumia 720 Smartphone

Finnish mobile phone manufacturer Nokia has announced the Lumia 720 smartphone, a mid-ranged Windows-powered device.

The Windows Phone 8 device has a 4.3-inch ClearBlack LCD display with a curved glass and super sensitive touch that supports use with gloves. It's powered by a dual-core 1 GHz Qualcomm CPU and 512 MB of RAM.

A 6.7-megapixel camera is located on the device's rear; it features LED flash and supports 720p video recording at 30 frames per second. A 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera is also included.

The Lumia 720 is the first Nokia phone with both a unibody design and a microSD memory extension card slot, which supports up to 64 GB with 8 GB of internal storage included.

The device will be available for $330 in China during March, while a global launch will follow sometime during the second quarter of 2013.

    Instead of going for interior specs, Nokia goes for a cool screen. My screen is good enough, thank you, I wish to actually UPGRADE when my time comes, and be able to run.. well, software that actually uses the power i then would have. We need to progress!

We need to progress!This is their budget Win8 phone, not their flagship, so you can't expect the highest end CPU. However, what makes a good smartphone is not entirely about the CPU. Having a screen that is easy to read in sunlight is a big plus, having good reception and camera are also important. It is also a different OS than you are likely using, so you have no idea how well it performs its tasks based on the chip used.

    I'd wait to see a review on it before making judgement.

    The mid-range is a fertile sales area, this should do well, amazing how just $5 or $10 a month difference on the contract can drag in millions of buyers
