So what is the screen resolution? I’d guess they stuck with 480*800 for this one.
cant blame Microsoft for this one, its relly all NOKIA foult 800×480 lame this days, one year ago it was lame .
If screen resolution turned out to be 480*800, i will kill Elop.
It is 800×480… I wonder on may nicles they save ???
Then you can kill Elop because it is 800×480
It’s AMOLED compared to the 920′s LCD so it should look better.
The rest of the specs are pretty good though. Native decoding of a whole bunch of video codecs and containers (no MKV though).
Amoled? I sure hope its not pentile then
RGB Matrix and more sub-pixel density on the 820 than on the S3.
Math for that?
Can’t recall OTTOMH.
“RGB Stripe” means non-pentile/full RGB.
I am happy that both the 820 and 920 are full RGB,
just like most Nokia phones (E7,C6-01,808 etc).
Yeah, and? There’s other qualities in displays that are just as important as the sub-pixel density & wider colour gamut that sRGB displays offer, so, it’s not as sample as sRBG = better.
Full RGB will have less jaggies than a pentile type screen given the same resolution,
screen technology type and ppi.
For example:
Samsung I9100G Galaxy S II
480 x 800
4.3in
217 ppi
Super Amoled plus (pentile)
vs
Nokia Lumia 900
480 x 800
4.3in
217 ppi
Amoled Stripe RGB w/ClearBlack
Both screens are Amoled, 480×800, 217ppi and made my Samsung.
The difference is pentile vs. stripe and of course ClearBlack.
Full RGB w/ClearBlack is the clear winner here,
I have both phones and the quality is obvious.
SGSII is great compared to most displays out today
but the Lumia 900 is better.
Better colors
Better visibility
Less jaggies
And? I also have the 900 & a N9 (used to have a SII, now have SIII).
There’s SAMOLED’s with far higher PPI now…
And there’s different screen tech with similar sub-pixel density as sRGB AMOLED (AKA SAMOLED+) that can attain higher PPI, & have qualities that AMOLED’s don’t.
They all have their strengths & weaknesses, there’s no such thing as one display being “the best in every metric”.
It is actually 480*800. Someone stop me from murdering that basterd
Then go for the 920. 1280×768. Alternatively, go for the Note 2 or an iPhone 5.
T-Mobile USA users must be the most pitiful users in the world…great phones never remember them unless there is a special subsidized version…
In my original comment I wasn’t criticizing the res of 480*800. It is plenty enough on a 4.3 inch screen, isn’t it?
No other manufacturers have put an HD display onto a 4.3.
sony
There’s def. some out there at higher res. than that & at 4.3″ or less.
Def. seen several in recent mths at engadget, & I haven’t even been following heavily for ages.
But whether or not total/effective combined pixel/sub-pixel density is greater I dont know.
If there’s SAMOLED+’s out there that are slightly smaller or slightly higher res. but same size (dont think that’s poss) then def. yes.
Pentaband LTE – Nokia is at its best again. Shame that screen is WVGA
to big and to heavy for just a 4.3 phone. wtf with all that bezel?
it’s possible to make compact phone even with a 4.3 screen with big battery.

Dunno, Nokia seems to like bezels all too much
If only that phone had the curved screen..
This one doesn’t even have the Pureview Camera then…
That is a truly informative list of specs, nice work Nblog…
This is the right webpage for anybody who hopes to understand this topic.
You know so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I personally will need to…HaHa).
You certainly put a fresh spin on a topic that’s been written about for a long time. Wonderful stuff, just great!
Dear Jay/Admins,
Please remove this intrusive & rude necro-SPAM that “Dianna” has posted, & then block her arse.
Thank-you.
