No SD-card for 920, however on the cheaper 820 there is a sd-card slot.
EDIT:
From WMPoweruser:
Winfuture.de reports the Nokia Lumia 920 will be released in Germany in mid-October and will retail for 600 Euro ($758, £476).
The Austrian art magazine ‘Future Zone‘ reported that Nokia wants to deliver the Lumia 920 from the middle of October in Germany. They expect the handset to initially launch only in a few countries, much like the roll-out of the Nokia Lumia 800, before being available everywhere.
The handset will be introduced first in Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Russia, before becomes available in late October in Poland. The Scandinavian countries, Portugal and Spain will receive the handset a short time later.
The Nokia Lumia 820 will follow 2 weeks later in the same markets and will retail for around 450 Euro ($568, £357).
Of note is that the Samsung Galaxy S III 16 GB without LTE is 580 Euro, making the 32 GB LTE Nokia Lumia 920 very price competitive.
A cheaper version of the Lumia 920 without LTE will also be available.

I really liked the look of the 820.
WAIT, WHAT ? No Skype integrated ??

920 has no microSD and you can't remove the battery

They said it already during the Windows Phone Summit 2 months back. They won't be integrating Skype into the OS. They will allow any VoIP App to fully integrate itself with WP8's Dialer and allow it to run in the background (which includes Skype but won't force Skype on everyone's handset (which would lead to problems with carriers)).

Does anyone think the specs might be wrong? I was disappointed when the 920 didn't list AWS support, but then when I saw that the 820 also didn't list it I became a bit suspicious since many are saying the 820 is destined for TMobile US.

The Nokia 920 its too heavy and big for a 4.5" display, 130.3 x 70.8 x x10.7 mm and 185g.
It's a shame because the rest of the hardware (camera, screen, built materials, etc) and the nokia software, are great.
The Ativ S by comparation with a 4.8" display has 137.2 x 70.5 x 8.7 mm and 135g.

Sturdier shell, bigger camera compartment (you need room for the camera assembly to move for the optical stabilization to be able to work), the extra Hardware for wireless charging and due to the improved touch technology by Synaptics I guess they need more room for the screen as well (I'm pretty sure it's not on-cell technology as with Samsung's SuperAMOLED).

er , someone say lunch?
oh. launch.
yawn.

I like heavy phone LOL

That 920 would of been cool if it only had the SD slot.... Oh, well, HTC's is on the 19th, maybe they will have something to blow away the 920. Over all besides the lack of the newest Windows Phone 8 standard missing (MicroSD), the 920 is a great phone

Some people are hard to please the L900 was 127.8 x 68.5 x 11.5 mm and 160 g.
Considering all the new tec in this phone it is only 25g heaver and slightly thinner.

Wish Nokia went with Android instead. Looks to be a decent handset but I won't go near it with it having Windows.

try it out first? yeah I'm an android fan too, but mostly for the apps not the actual OS :S I'm growing a bit tired of the icons business... but what I didn't like about the windows phone was the app list either :S I preferred android's screen/icons over the app list.
Kind of want just the metro UI as homescreen and android's app drawer lol.
back to topic, yeah, try out the windows phone, I'll stop by store when it's out. Nothing to say I'll buy it, but this phone is one that I'll make a stop in to at least get hands on with

Prices are 450 Euro for Lumia 820 and 600 Euro for Lumia 920. Worth or not ?

Source for the pricing?

This phone will definitely be subsidized under contract with phone companies (speaking of US)
As for AT&T USA, I'm thinking this phone should sell for $100-$200.

"price competitive" (which requires signing a 2 year contract AND possible etf's) isn't good enough to entice folks already comfortable with their respective platforms.
the s3 has a very good reputation. the 920 has..... what?

[Q] What is the difference ?!

Hello all,
I am planning on getting the Lumia 800, and while its didn't come to my country yet ( I live in the middle-east) I wanna get it online.
I went to amazon and I've found those two:
1- Nokia Lumia 800 16GB, 8MP, 3G, GPS, Mango Unlocked World Mobile Smartphone (Black) for 756$
http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-Lumia-U...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327273568&sr=1-3
2- Nokia Lumia 800 black 16GB -FACTORY UNLOCKED- for 510$
http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-Lumia-b...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327273568&sr=1-1
Can anybody tell me what difference is there between these two? and why is there a large difference between them regarding price? they are both listed as unlocked so I really don't know what the difference is!
Any ideas please? thanks
The difference is that the one priced at $510 is actually selling.
There is no difference between the two. Choose the less expensive.

I agree with the guy above, no difference, go for the cheaper option, based on the reviews, the phone's all good. Sounds like a very good deal at that price.

Lumia 800 now or wait for the 900

I'm itching to get off of T-Mobile. Think I should wait for the 900 or get the 800 from the local Microsoft store? 900 LTE sounds great. Battery life might suck bad though. Or get the 800 which has the screen size I like.
Thoughts? Do you love your 800?
This is exactly the dilemma I have. I've decided to wait for the 900 which most sources seem to be saying will launch in May in the UK.
I've had Lumia 800 since December. Had I known in December everything I know about this phone now, I'd have never bought it.
My advise, wait for 900. At least it guaranteed to have tethering.

Agreed. I regret buying this after seeing the 900.
Thanks. Guess I'm waiting.
Good thinking..

What do you know about the 800 that's so bad?
I was also waiting for the Lumia 900 release, but that changed when I saw the size of the 900. It is bigger than the Samsung Focus S even though they do have the same size screens. Also the 900 is slightly smaller than the Titan. I had the Titan for 2 weeks and found it to be WAY to big for my needs.
So I am holding out for a good deal on a Lumia 800 with 850 band. Just my 2¢.

First of all as I customer I don't like to be lied to do. Nowhere in advertisement it was mentioned that Nokia Drive requires a data connection to find a location. It was advertised as a completely offline navigation software.
Secondly internet tethering was promised to be released in Jan'12. We would be lucky if we see it at all.
Of course everybody heard about the battery and audio quality disasters.
Basically customers who purchased 800 in Nov'11 - Jan'12 were using a beta quality product.
As for me my next phone is not gonna be a Nokia phone.

Internet tethering is coming in a future update - Nokia have confirmed this. Battery and audio quality issues have all been fixed since 12070. Can't comment on the Nokia Drive advert (I haven't seen the Lumia advertised with Nokia Drive) - however, Nokia Drive has been updated to version 3 and was presented at MWC with fully-functioning offline navigation and free traffic rerouting. As far as I know, it will be released in April.
This is Nokia's first WP7 phone - give them a chance to get used to the platform. They have released a new firmware update every month for the past four months, so they're obviously working hard to iron out all the kinks - most of which have been fixed with the latest 12070 update.
I'll admit there were issues to begin with, but the Lumia 800 is finally shaping up to be a decent phone now.
It was pictures of the 900 that made me consider getting a Lumia, but in the end I went for the 800 for the reason already mentioned above - screen size.
I had a HD7 with a 4.3" screen and yeah it's great for the web etc. but it's a pain to use as a phone and useless single-handed.
My Galaxy S with 4" screen seemed to be the perfect compromise between large screen and usability, I wouldn't want to go above that on a phone.
Personally I'm going to wait for something like the Nokia Prodigy.
Yes I know a long wait on that one but I have an iPhone 4 that will do for now and a great sim only tariff. I can wait a bit longer to get the phone I want.
Wait for 900 i guess, comparative with 800 it will rock!~~~
Took the Lumia 800 for screen size. I personally don't want a bigger phone and I am quite happy with the 800 so far.
@moosic Think of few things, like 4G LTE ready Windows Phone device, big screen, refreshed rear camera and a front-facing camera built-in it with a wider apeture and great image quality. You are getting a good featured smartphone but it seems like you'll have to wait for it way too long. There are rumors out there that say, it has been delayed on A&T till April 22nd. Does it worth it? I can't tell, basically for me, i'd like to have all those features but the size doesn't fit my pocket + you still have to wait.

I was also waiting for 900. But the size is to big for my woman hand, and i was also disapointed that the screen wasnt curved like the 800. So last friday I bought the 800 in magenta and I just love the phone.

Currently facing the same dilema. I'm due an upgrade on Orange to replace my Omnia 7.
Personally I don't care about a FFC so that isn't a selling point for me on the 900. I do think however the Omnia 7 is as big as I'd want to go at 4".
Having used Galaxy S2s i find that to be possibly too big.
Has there been any official word if the 800 will be updated to Apollo / WP8 when it rolls out? I don't want to upgrade in April and then have an obsolete OS version by November...

When you have carpel tunnel syndrome (me) thats a 10000x worse
Ive been forced back to a 4s just so I can keep value in my hand set till the next gen 3.7" screened Lumia comes out
I think the 800 is the perfect size and form factor. Just something about 900's size I don't care too much for..
That said, if front-facing camera were a priority, then you need the 900 regardless.
Camera's important to me; so my gut tells me that Nokia will use the 900 platform for their rumored Lumia Windows Phone incorporating Pure View- so if/when that happens, I'll make the jump to the bigger phone and live with the size of it..
Pure View in Windows Phone won't be until 2013 so waiting for that isn't that great of an idea.

Lumia 920 Developer Edition

I shelled out £640 for a developer edition when the 920s were exclusive to EE in the UK. Now I'm considering selling it, and I would like to know if there's any chance of it being worth any more than a regular 920, maybe due to the true pentaband thing?
If not, I guess I'll have to settle with it or accept the 300 odd depreciation, haha.

Over at Canadagsm.ca I found under Nokia they're selling the unlocked pentaband Lumia 920 for C$399 which isn't bad at all compared to what eBay sellers are asking. What I can't find is what exactly defines the Developer Edition? I am aware it is subsidy unlocked, has all the varying carrier radios in it but is that it? Currently as of this typing I own a HD2 and two Titans which are HSPL and what I really, really enjoy about those phones is my use of the Windows Phone 7.x SDK's Application Deployment which allows me to install programs outside the Marketplace which include Homebrew and 3rd party apps. I find answers that go both ways on this DE and would like to have a more definitive answer in regards to whether it too accepts the Windows Phone 8 SDK's Application Deployment...I realize it might not accept Homebrew apps but do we know what those restrictions are; thanks!
I own a developer edition and never had any problems.

Lumia 925 forum????

I've seen the 900, 920, and 1020. Did I did I blow past it or is there not one? If not, can we set one up?

like xda has ever cared about windows phone...i wish there was a Lumia 925 forum as well, however there is no Lumia 928 forum either. I think they expect us to just use the Lumia 920 forum... Xda is definitely one of the worst windows phone resources available.

I ended up a while back having to create a thread in here because there was no separate forum. Even though I suspect because of its design it might well outsell both the 920 & the 1020.
ye
there must be a thread section for LUMIA 925
\which is better in all aspects than 920
and even more sold in 6 months
Besides the amoled screen it offers not much extras compared to the 920. It offers only half the storage capability and the price is higher than the 920. The build quality of the 920 is also sturdier and more compact imho.
This site used to be "window phone only" and it's now it's very much "android only". It's used to have a forum for every HTC window phone. It's sad to see the site convert 100% to android and not much about what it started out long ago.

No lumia 930 forum?

Why not?
--------------------------------------------
My house phone's better than your iPhone.
+1
Why?
because this cover 920, 925, 928 and 930...
"Why?" - because some people use the lumia 930 and it is the current lumia flagship... :what:
--------------------------------------------
My house phone's better than your iPhone.
why not? is many variation of models and in basics WP models is similar and problems and solution is similar (same)...
look which Nokia devices have own subforum:
920/820 was first (Nokia) WP8 devices and all start from this devices...
1020 - first 41MP device
We need a Lumia 930 forum.
Exactly - you can't compare the 930 to the 920, 925 or 928.
-------------------------->SIG<------------------------
Even my house phone's better than your iPhone.
+1 yes! we need nokia 930 thread. or also need more another nokia phones thread.
+1
I think every flagship should have its own forum. Waiting for it...
