Nokia Lumia Icon is a high-level Windows Phone 8 phone released back in the year 2014, featuring a great Quad-Core processing unit speeding at 2200 MHz, a comfortable 5 inches multi-touch screen, a 20 megapixels back camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera. Is that all? No, it's just the beginning.
Nokia decided to build this device with an extremely powerful Quad-Core CPU ticking at 2.2 gigahertz, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 8974-AA chip and a great 2 GB RAM. Graphic rendering generally eats a lot of processing time, so it also also has an Adreno 330 GPU ticking at 450 MHz to take some work out of the CPU. The Nokia Lumia Icon counts with a large 32 GB internal memory and though it doesn't come with an external memory slot, it it is more than enough to store tons of applications, games, photos and videos without even thinking about filling it.
Nokia is offering this cellphone in 2 different color options: black and white. Nokia didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 5.86 ounces cellphone. This cellphone is a compact cellphone, given that it packs a 5 inches screen and it is just 5.39 inches long and 2.79" wide. This phone is thin and good-looking, being just 0.39" thick.
Nokia designed this cellphone with a beautiful 5" screen, and a 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution, providing this cellphone with a great graphic quality. Its screen uses AMOLED capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.
This device is equipped with two cameras, a 20 MP back camera and a 1.2 megapixels front side camera. It can also shoot videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also features a lot of amazing characteristics like auto-focus, flash, optical image stabilization, fast burst mode, smile detection shooting, face detection shooting and geo tagging.
This phone provides WiFi connection (although it can't be shared with other devices as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE high performance internet connection and also HSPA+ connectivity, which is a lower speed 4G network and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA and EV-DO A technologies. The Lumia Icon works with a Nano SIM card to connect to GSM networks and it can connect using both GSM and CDMA.
This phone uses a big 2420 mAh Li-Polymer non-removable battery, enough to provide the Nokia Lumia Icon with an amazing battery life. This phone has an estimated talk time of 16.4 hours and a stand by time of 432 hs according to Nokia. An issue to evaluate is that this phone's battery is non-removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to lose capacity, whereas with such a big battery you will probably buy a new cellphone before it becomes a real problem.
This phone also includes lots of cool features like Wireless charging system, NFC, Bluetooth (enables communication with other cellphones, computers and accessories), GPS Geolocation and Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.
This cellphone is priced around 249 dollars, not so cheap for this type of phone. No matter if you are looking for a cellphone for work, want a gaming cellphone, you love taking photographs or will use this cellphone mostly for social networks and internet browsing, this device is the correct option for you. Nokia also sells this cellphone with Nokia Charging and Data Cable (CA-190CD), Nokia AC-60 MicroUSB Charger and Printed material.
