Nokia Lumia 930 | Connects
Hey guys, I recently got offered to trail this beautiful Nokia Lumia 930 smartphone from Connects for two weeks. I can honestly say I have fallen in love, the style, size and quality are all perfect for what I look for in a phone. I personally choose my phone based on a good camera & screen quality, this smartphone excels both of these features!
Camera: The rear camera is an amazing 20 mega pixels with a dual-LED flash it catches all the pictures in a sharp and clear quality in pretty much any lightening. Plus the App Store offer so many editing features to enhance the quality even more, it's really easy to use! And with such high quality it is a pleasure to watch videos, just sit back and enjoy let the phone do all the work!
Appearance: To begin with I was so shocked by the colour, the smartphone back is bright orange (I mean bright bright!) it stands out a lot which I love. Plus you can purchase this phone in three other colours (Green, Black, White) which is very rare because most new smartphone only give you the choice of one or two where as Microsoft are offering a total of four to choose from! The screen size is a large 5 inches, which is becoming more common with newer smartphones. I personally love the size, it fits perfect in your hand without having to stretch to text! The screen edges are smooth and sleek looking very high end, they even off to the sides of a silver trim which works great with the phone!
Positives: The camera is the major selling point for this phone, I have simply fallen in love with it! The clear sharp colours just throw me every time and the more I use this phone the more I love it! I love the sizing of the screen, and how easy it is to slide your sim card in with iPhone's you have to use a small silver key to poke around or with my HTC you have to tug and tug to open it! With this phone you simply slide across the top which has a very small gap but perfect nail size! And of course, I love the HD Quality screen which is super sensitive and responsive perfect for texting! The battery lasted so long, I didn't have to constantly charge it up, the sound worked perfect when people was texting me, phoning me or my notifications going off it would ring loud enough to hear! I would use the settings on 6/10 and it would be perfect! The other point about this phone is the customization freedom, you can change the layout of the screen "pinning" Apps to the front and switching the orders around.
Negatives: I must admit I tried to push this phone to its limits to get a full response, I noticed when video recording from the rear camera (Selfie) the sound recording wasn't all that loud and you did have to speak up and louder to get a clear recording. Another thing I noticed was that not all the Apps I use was available in the store, I'm not sure why 100% but they will probably get released sometime this year the main App I look for is Depop (Which didn't appear in the store anywhere). I also noticed the Instagram App worked a little different to how I used it on my HTC, on my HTC you could edit the filter more with brightness, shadows etc.. But on this phone you could only pick a filter and not edit it.. Again I think this is because of how new Microsoft has become on the smartphone platform and will probably get fully up to date with the Apps sometime soon. And the only other down point on this phone is that the screen gets dirty quick, of course because it is touch you will get a lot of finger prints but I think if this was my personal phone I would honestly get a plastic screen protector to go over it!
Overall: I have honestly fallen for this phone, I love the colour, the camera and just majority of everything! I would honestly consider buying this phone it has so many bonus features, but I would say it can be rather "complicated" to use and different to some of the other smartphones as it gives a lot more customization but once you get the hang of it, the phone is perfect! I could honestly say I prefer this to my HTC Desire Eye smartphone because the sizing is perfect, I find my smartphone is a bit too big to hold in one hand.
You can buy this phone on its own as a "Pay as you go" user, or you could get this phone on a contract with EE, O2, Vodafone and any contract supports! I personally am not a fan of buying contracts and would much rather pay for the phone and place credit on it monthly as I only use about £10 worth! But that's just me!
