The Nokia Lumia is a series of smartphones from Nokia first introduced in November 2011, all of which use the Windows Phone operating system. The Lumia name is derived from the partitive plural form of the word Lumi which means snow in the Finnish language.
Nokia had to move away from the declining Symbian platform and chose Windows Phone as their primary smartphone OS. This partnership with Microsoft was confirmed on February 11, 2011. Symbian, which was for many years the leading smartphone OS, continued to lose large market share throughout 2010 and dropped below Android in Q4. Nokia continued to develop and release Symbian smartphones as well as MeeGo when the Lumia line was released.
For the first generation Lumias, first showcased with the 800, Nokia's advertising tagline was The Amazing Everyday. For the second generation Lumias, it is #SWITCH.
Nokia Lumia 800.
The Nokia Lumia series was first introduced to the market in November 2011 with the release of two phones. While the Nokia Lumia 800 targets the high-end of the smartphone marketplace, the Nokia Lumia 710 was intended to target the midrange (feature phone) by offering an entry-level device at a lower price point.[1] The series consists of Nokia's Windows Phone devices. Each phone comes in a variety of different colors and specifications.
The Nokia Lumia 800 (codenamed 'Sea Ray') is a Windows Phone 7-powered smartphone, first unveiled on 26 October 2011 at the Nokia World 2011 event with an original pay-as-you-go price of £400 ($624) SIM-free.[2] It was Nokia's first mobile phone to run the Windows Phone OS and marked the company's shift of focus in favor of Windows Phone for its premium-priced phones. The Lumia 800 shares its hardware design with the previously released MeeGo-based Nokia N9 although there are some differences. The most obvious difference is that Nokia has added a dedicated button for the camera on the right hand side of the phone and has moved a dual LED flash directly above the Carl Zeiss camera lens.[3] Despite a similar exterior, the Lumia 800 has a different interior than N9. Lumia 800's chipset comes from Qualcomm, whereas the N9 is based on a Texas Instruments OMAP chipset and CPU.[4][5]
The screen diagonal is 3.7 inches (800 x 480 pixels) which is smaller than Nokia's previous phone with 3.9 inches (854 x 480 pixels) for N9, to conform with the Windows Phone specifications list, which includes three capacitive softkeys placed under the glass. A clear unibody shell is made from polycarbonate plastic. Nokia outsourced the production of its Qualcomm-based Lumia 800 to Compal Electronics. According to Nokia, this was due to time constraints and Compal's experience with the chipset.[4][6] According to the same source future models, beginning with the 710 model, would be built within a Nokia factory.[4] Devices for the European and Northern American markets are configured, tested and packed by Nokia's factory in Salo, Finland.[7]
The Nokia Lumia 710 was released in the UK on the 1st of February 2012 with an initial release price of £300 SIM-free. The main difference externally is the weight of the phone weighing in at 125.5 grams a whole 15.5 grams lighter than its predecessor. Although the Lumia 710 is the lighter of the two phones, it also is larger. The Lumia 710 dimensions are (119 x 62.4 x 12.48mm) whereas the Lumia 800 has slightly smaller dimensions of (116.5 x 61.2 x 12.1mm). The size and resolution of the screen does not differ though with a size of 3.7 inches and a resolution of (800 x 480 pixels). Although the Nokia Lumia 710 is limited to a ClearBlack TFT compared to the ClearBlack AMOLED on the Nokia Lumia 800. The Nokia Lumia 710 has a removable rear cover which enables the battery to be replaced, a feature the Nokia Lumia 800 does not provide.[8] Battery life also differs substantially. The Lumia 710 offers a 1300 mAh Li-Ion battery compared to the 1450 mAh Li-ion battery on offer with the Lumia 800. This results in a talk time of 6.9 hours on the Lumia 710, roughly half of the Lumia 800 talk-time of 13 hours. The stand-by time of the Lumia 710 is 400 hours which oddly is greater than the 265 hours on offer with the Lumia 800. The trend is similar when 3G usage is taken into account. Talk-time (w/3G use) of the Lumia 710 is 7.6 hours which is significantly lower than the 9.5 hours on offer with the Lumia 800. Stand-by time (w/3G) for the Lumia 710 is 400 hours, compared to 335 hours with the Lumia 800. When playing music, however, the Lumia 710 battery will last around 38 hours, remarkably lower than the 55 hours the Lumia 800 runs.[9]
Upon release the Lumia 900 was priced at £399 ($622) SIM-free which is similar to the price of the Lumia 800.[10] The lumia 900 is physically larger than the 800 with a screen size of 4.3 inches compared to the 3.7 inches of the Lumia 800. The resolution of the screens is the same (480 x 800 pixels) although pixel densities are different with the Lumia 900 providing 217ppi and the Lumia 800 providing 252ppi. This means that the Lumia 900 weighs 160 grams compared to the slightly lighter 142 grams of the Lumia 800. Once again the battery life is a major difference between the two phones. The lumia 900 offers a 1830 mAh Li-Ion compared to the 1450 mAh Li-Ion battery provided by the Lumia 800. Surprisingly, the Lumia 800 offers a longer talk time by providing 13 hours of talk before running out of battery. This is substantially longer than the 7 hours of the Lumia 900. But the Lumia 900 offers a longer stand-by time of 14.6 days compared to the 11 days of with the Lumia 800. It also provides a longer music playback time of 60 hours compared to the 55 hours of the Lumia 800. The SoC found in the Lumia 900 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 APQ8055 which differs from the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8255 of the Lumia 800 (although the processor, graphics processor, system memory and built-in storage do not differ). The main difference when it comes to taking images is that the Lumia 900 offers a 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera which is a feature not provided with the Lumia 800. The music player in the Lumia 900 supports several formats that the Lumia 800 does not. These include Apple Lossless (M4A), M4B and AMR. The Lumia 800 provides Facebook as a built-in online service which the Lumia 900 does not offer.[11]
Upon release the Lumia 610 was priced at £150 ($234) (UK price) SIM-free, which is half the price of the Lumia 710.[12] This will mean that the Lumia 610 will most likely offer fewer features than the Lumia 710. At first glance the phones look similar. The main difference is the set of controls beneath the screen. The Lumia 710 has hardware buttons on a single rocker-styled piece, while the 610 goes for three separate capacitive keys. There are also some differences in the location of controls and connectivity ports. The Lumia 710 has the power/lock key at the top while in the Lumia 610 it is located on its side.[13] The physical size of the phones is similar. The Lumia 610 weighs 132 grams which is only 6 grams heavier than the 126 grams of the Lumia 710. The size and resolution of the screens are the same, with each phone having a screen size of 3.7 inches and a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. The screens offer a pixel density of 252ppi. The colors on offer with the Lumia 610 is 65 536 which is a lot less than the 16 777 216 colors that the Lumia 710 can display. The battery life of the phones does not differ much. Each offers a 1300 mAh Li-Ion battery. The talk time life of the Lumia 610 is 6.5 hours, a little less than the 6.9 hours of the Lumia 710. The stand-by time of the Lumia 610 is 24.2 days, significantly higher than the 16.7 days of the Lumia 710. The music playback time of the Lumia 610 is 35 hours, slightly less than the 38 hours of the Lumia 710. The system chip in the Lumia 610 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7227A. This differs from the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8255. The processor in the Lumia 610 is the single core, 800 MHz, ARM Cortex-A5. The Lumia 710 single core, 1400 MHz, Scorpion. The system memory contained within the Lumia 610 is 256 MB RAM which is half the memory contained with the Lumia 710. Both phones offer 8GB of built-in storage. The resolution of the camcorder within the Lumia 610 has a resolution of 640x480 (VGA) (30 fps). This is less than the 1280x720 (720p HD) (30 fps) in the Lumia 710. The built-in online services provided with the Lumia 610 are Facebook and Twitter. The Lumia 710 offers these services as well as YouTube videos uploading capability, Flickr and Picasa photo sharing support.[14]
The Nokia Lumia 820 was released on November 9[19] with an initial price of £380 ($593) SIM-free.[20] The Lumia 820 weighs 160 grams and has a display size of 4.3 inches. The screen resolution of the phone is (480 x 800 pixels) and the pixel density is 217ppi. The screen is able to display 16 777 216 colors. The Li-Ion battery that is provided with the Lumia 820 has a capacity of 1650 mAh. This results in a fairly long talk time of 14 hours before the battery needs to be charged. The battery also provides 13.8 days of stand-by time. The system chip found within the Lumia 820 is the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960. The processor is the dual core, 1500 MHz, Krait and there is 1024 MB RAM contained within the system memory. The Lumia 820 provides 8 GB of built-in storage which can be expanded to 64 GB with the use of microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC. The camera provided offers 8 megapixels with a dual LED flash. The camcorder offers 1920x1080 (1080p HD) (30 fps) and offers continuous autofocus in a video or video call. The phone also has a front-end camera which provides 0.3 megapixels VGA. The phone uses Internet Explorer 10 compared to the previous version of Internet Explorer 9 which was used in the first generation of phones. The Lumia 820 offers the same built-in online services as the Lumia 710.
The Nokia Lumia 920 was released on November 2[21] with a release price of somewhere around £475 ($741) SIM-free.[22] The Lumia 920 weighs 185 grams, a whole 25 grams heavier than the Lumia 820. The Lumia 920 also has a slightly larger screen than the Lumia 820 with a display size of 4.5 inches. The resolution of the Lumia 920 screen is also of higher quality with a resolution of 768 x 1280 pixels. The pixel density of the screen is also significantly greater than the Lumia 820 with a pixel density of 332ppi compared to 217ppi. Both mobiles are able to display 16 777 216 colors. The Lumia 920 offers a 2000 mAh Li-Ion battery which means a talk time of 17 hours is possible before the battery needs to be charged. This is substantially greater than the 14 hours provided by the Lumia 820. The Lumia 920 battery also offers a larger stand-by time of 16.7 days. The only difference of the hardware between the two phones is that the Lumia 920 offers 32 GB of built-in storage which is four times the amount provided with the Lumia 820. The camera provided with the Lumia 920 offers 8.7 megapixels with a dual LED flash. The camcorder is the same as the one provided with the Lumia 820 but the front facing camera that the Lumia 920 provides offers 1.3 megapixels which is a whole megapixel above the front facing camera provided by the Lumia 820. The Lumia 920 also comes with Internet Explorer 10 as well as the same built-in services as the Lumia 820.[23]
In December 2012, Nokia announced its first mid-range Windows Phone 8 devices, the Nokia Lumia 620. It is expected to sell in January 2013 in Asia, followed by Europe and the Middle East at an estimated street price of $249.[24]
These were followed by Nokia Lumia 720 and Nokia Lumia 520, both announced in February 2013, and released two months later in April.
In the United States, two variations of Lumia 920, the AT&T exclusive model have subsequently been released, the Lumia 928 which brought the 92x experience to Verizon Wireless customers and Lumia 925, T-Mobile's flagship Nokia device. A re-packaged 920 handset, it made its design thinner and lighter.
Financial analyst RBC Capital Markets believes Lumia devices have a higher than normal return rates which may be the cause as to why Nokia appeared to be behind the competition.[56]
According to Finnish retailer Verkkokauppa Lumia 920 devices have ten times lower return rate than the iPhone 5 and two times lower return rates than the Samsung Galaxy S4. Other Lumia devices such as the 720 and 620 have even lower return rates.[57]
Nokia had to move away from the declining Symbian platform and chose Windows Phone as their primary smartphone OS. This partnership with Microsoft was confirmed on February 11, 2011.

The Lumia 900 (a high-end phone) was released on April 8, 2012 whereas the Lumia 610 (an entry-level phone) was released in the first week of June. The latter of the two is aimed at the budget market meaning the specifications of the phone will be a lot less impressive than the Lumia 900 which is aimed at the higher end of the market.Upon release the Lumia 900 was priced at £399 ($622) SIM-free which is similar to the price of the Lumia 800.[10] The lumia 900 is physically larger than the 800 with a screen size of 4.3 inches compared to the 3.7 inches of the Lumia 800.
