Nokia Lumia 1020 vs. Lumia 1520 vs. Lumia 925 camera comparison
Find out how the massive 41MP camera on the Nokia Lumia 1020 compares to the 20MP camera on the Lumia 1520, the 8MP camera on the Lumia 925, the 6MP camera on the Lumia 2520 tablet, and the budget friendly 5MP camera on the Lumia 625.
While Lumia 1020 had no sharpening used at all, and it gave the most accurate color representation, it was also the slowest among the phones tested. The huge sensor doesn't really help when the photo has to be processed, so Lumia 1020 took its time. Nokia's camera flagship is as quick to focus as the others, but shot-to-shot times are very slow in comparison.
Next slowest was the Lumia 1520 with its near-20MP sensor, despite is fast Snapdragon 800 processor. It also introduces a reddish hue over the shots, scoring low on the color representation scale. The two cheaper phones only measured up against the 1020 monster and the 1520 phablet in color fidelity and speed, stepping aside for the other aspects.

The Nokia Lumia 720 joins the company’s lineup of Windows Phone 8 devices, offering users a mid-range option in a variety of colors and a unibody design. The device features a 4.3 inch touch display, 8GB of internal storage which can be expanded through microSD, a 6.7 megapixel camera capable of 720p HD video capture, a secondary HD camera for video calls and is powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor with 512MB of RAM.The Lumia 720 also features wireless charging with an optional wireless car charger available to those who need one. Its somewhat unconventional 6.7 megapixel camera features Carl Zeiss optics and a f/1.9 aperture, which is generally not found in smartphones. This aperture results in better low-light photo and video performance, which is something the company has been investing in recently.
Its "pillow-like, human shape" design as it is referred to by its design team makes the device easy to hold and handle in its 9mm thin frame and 128g body. Nokia has also used the same zirconium material it used on the Nokia Lumia 920, for the keys and accents on the Lumia 720 to make them resistant to scratches and smudges.
The Lumia 720 also brings the same advanced Super Sensitive display which can be used with gloves. The display also offers excellent viewing angles which should perform very well under direct sunlight.
The Nokia Lumia 720 is expected to arrive in markets during the second quarter of 2013 and cost around $330 (EUR 250). You will be select the handset in matte red, yellow, cyan and black or in glossy white. The Lumia 720 is a clear indication that Nokia is hard at work on the design of the Lumia handsets, making them more portable and user friendly.

The Lumia 720 codenamed Nokia Zeal will feature a 4.3 inch Clear Black touch display, 8GB of storage which can be expanded through microSD, a 6 megapixel camera, a secondary 2 megapixel camera for video calls, HSPA+ connectivity and will be powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor.
The Lumia 520 will codenamed Nokia Fame will feature a 4 inch Super Sensitive touch display, 8GB of storage which can be expanded through microSD, a 5 megapixel camera and will be powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor.

We have been hearing reports about the Nokia Lumia 1000 recently and we are now seeing two more new devices leak before the upcoming Mobile World Congress. The Nokia Lumia 720 (RM-885) and Nokia Lumia 520 (RM-914) have surfaced in Indonesia and are the likely successors of the Nokia Lumia 710 and the Nokia Lumia 510 respectively.
Not much is known about either device but they will likely be on either side of the Nokia Lumia 620 with the Lumia 720 aimed at the mid-range market while the Nokia Lumia 510 takes over as the entry level Windows Phone 8. Both devices are expected to launch in Q2 2013, which makes the upcoming MWC a possible venue for their debut.
Both the Lumia 720 and the Lumia 520 have apparently passed certification on February 06, 2013 from the Directorate Post & Telecommunication Indonesia, which is the local equivalent of the FCC.
We will be covering the MWC as the event kick off on February 24th, so please stay connected by following us on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter for updates.
