The Lumia 1020 is the phone that we had all be waiting for — we had seen Nokia announce a phone with a 41 megapixel camera before, but it was running on the dead Symbian OS. Now however, Nokia has one running on its OS of choice, Windows Phone.
This is an impressive smartphone with an astounding camera. The Windows Phone operating system is gradually improving but it’s still lacking some key apps.
If you’re primarily looking for a great camera on your smartphone, then the Lumia 1020 should be your first and only choice.
Nokia has become the world’s most innovative smartphone manufacturer, preferring to improve important features rather than add gimmicks such as fingerprint sensors and eye tracking.
The Lumia 1020 isn’t going to be the best phone from Nokia, we can expect even better after the Microsoft’s acquisition goes through — but it is one of the best phones on the market right now.
Nokia need not apologise for the bulky size of the Lumia 1020, it’s a worthwhile compromise for the world’s best smartphone camera.
