  The Nokia Lumia 820 is a simple, fast and elegant device. Apps load up fast and the screen makes Windows Phone 8 look superb, with deep blacks thanks to the AMOLED screen. Coming in different colours, the Nokia is a vibrant and interesting device, although the Finland based phone maker could have come up with a better way to remove the back cover.

  I've owned Windows Phones since their conception. HTC, Samsung, Nokia. So far my best experience has been with the Nokia 820 (ATT). It's the perfect size......weight is just right........you know you have in you possession and in a situation you can heave it at someone and it will hurt. Fast, yep, sure is. Also the casing is remarkable or shall I say unmarkable. It doesn't scatch with everyday use. I drop it a few days ago as i was getting out of my car....not one ding. My sister inlaw drop her Sumsung S3 the same way and the screen cracked. I'm saying it's bad enough that that Windows Phone dosen't get the credit it deserves ATT sales people hardly know it exsist.....a shame for sure.
