Nokia introduces new Nokia Lumia 620
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Nokia's third and most affordable Windows Phone 8 smartphone offers youthful
appeal
Espoo, Finland and Paris, France - Nokia today introduced the Nokia Lumia 620,
the third and most affordable in its range of Windows Phone 8 smartphones.
Alongside the flagship Nokia Lumia 920 and mid-range Nokia Lumia 820, the Nokia
Lumia 620 offers a more fun, youthful appeal, and compact design.
The Nokia Lumia 620 uses a new dual-shot color technique to deliver a variety of
striking color and texture effects. Dual-shot adds a second layer of colored,
transparent or translucent polycarbonate on top of a base layer to produce
secondary color blends and depth effects. With seven different exchangeable
shells to choose from, people can adapt the look of their Nokia Lumia 620 to
their own personal taste and style.
"We continue to execute on our strategy to reach new audiences and new markets,"
said Jo Harlow, executive vice president, Nokia Smart Devices. "With its
innovative design, the latest Windows Phone 8 software and signature experiences
from Nokia, like Nokia lenses, Nokia Maps and Nokia Music, the Nokia Lumia 620
is a highly competitive smartphone at this price point."
Among the features shared with the Nokia Lumia 920 and Nokia Lumia 820 are
exclusive camera lenses that transform the creative power of the Nokia Lumia
620's five megapixel main camera and VGA front-facing camera. The Cinemagraph
lens adds simple animations to still photographs, while Smart Shoot creates a
single, perfect shot from multiple images, even removing unwanted objects from
the picture.
The Nokia Lumia 620 also provides access to the world's best maps and location
experience, including Nokia Maps, Nokia Drive, Nokia Transport and the exclusive
Nokia City Lens. Nokia City Lens displays information about local surroundings
overlaid onto buildings as seen through the camera viewfinder.
Making it easy to discover and enjoy new music, Nokia Music provides free
streaming of ad-free tracks without registration or subscription and the ability
to download playlists for listening offline.
With NFC support, the Nokia Lumia 620 can easily pair with NFC-enabled
accessories like the JBL PlayUp Portable Speaker for Nokia. Open and secure NFC-
connectivity makes it possible to share and receive content by tapping with
compatible devices, or make secure payments using the Wallet application in
Windows Phone 8.
Powered by Windows Phone 8, the Nokia Lumia 620 delivers a more personal
smartphone experience. Adjustable Live Tiles update direct to the Start Screen.
People Hub pulls together contact information from multiple address books and
social networks into a single location, making it easy to stay in touch with
friends and set up contact Groups and private Rooms for sharing. From the Me
Tile people can check in to their location, post an update, set chat status, see
what's new and monitor notifications across Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.
Windows Phone 8 also includes Xbox Live, Microsoft Office, 7GB of online
SkyDrive storage and faster, safer surfing with Internet Explorer 10.
These features and capabilities are enabled by Qualcomm's Snapdragon(TM) S4 Plus
processors.
"People can do more of the things they love when they choose a mobile device
that has a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor," said Enrico Salvatori, senior vice
president and president of Qualcomm Europe. "The Snapdragon S4 Plus processor is
the heart of the Nokia Lumia 620, making it possible to multi-task, stream in HD
and share content at super-fast speeds."
The Nokia Lumia 620 will be available in a range of colors* including, lime
green, orange, magenta, yellow, cyan, white and black. Estimated at USD 249,
excluding taxes and subsidies, the Nokia Lumia 620 will begin selling in January
2013 in Asia, followed closely by Europe and the Middle East before expanding
further.
* Availability of colored shells may vary by country.
