    Nokia Lumia 720 - Details emerging

    For me at least, the Nokia Lumia 720 looks promising, as it has Gorilla Glass 2 and has the more solid look and feel of the Lumia 920:

    http://reviews.cnet.com/cell-phones/...-35619093.html

    It has MicroSD up to 64GB and 6.7 Megapixel camera. I would prefer this over the 820 simply because the 820 feels a bit too flimsy for its price, even though you are going down from 1GB of RAM to 512mb. It'll probably be around the £260-270 price with VAT included. It also might push the HTC WP8 devices down in price too, but we will see.

    Here are some more specs on gsmarena.

    For me its a very disapointing MWC. No announcement about the next PureView offering.

    I really would like a stabalised version of the 808, simply amazing day shooting, and great night shooting.... without having to use Symbian.....

    You don't like Nokia music?

    I find the regular app very useable on the phone, just haven't found a good way to sync playlists from my Zune desktop client.... I could search the net I suppose, but goddamnit if I was willing to google every simple bloody task I want to do, I'd be using linux.

    Doesn't support "disc number" metadata, making it largely useless.

    So basically the 720 is the higher version of the 620 hence why the gorilla glass 2 but only 512mb RAM whereas the 820 is a better phone but since the 920 has gorilla glass 2, didn't want to give it to 820 to differentiate.

    *confusion*
