Buyers are going to have to decide for themselves whether the Lumia 830 equation make sense for their needs.Those who need the most powerful phone that's going to offer best-in-class performance should definitely look elsewhere. Those stuttering issues ar...

Smart-looking with satisfying mid-range power, the Lumia 830 packs in more features than you'd expect at this price range, including the impressive PureView camera
A 720p screen seems a little disappointing on anything with the title 'flagship'. Windows, as always, suffers when it comes to your choice of apps in the marketplace
A great example of a Windows-based smartphone and a killer option for what it costs, although there's still not quite enough going on with Windows Phone to pull people away from Android or iOS....
Abstract: The Lumia 830 is a Windows phone from Microsoft that is meant to bring some of those high end specs to your mid-range device. bringing in features that you don't normally see in a smartphone that retails for $99 with a two-year contract exclusively at AT&...
Thin, relatively light, but with a solid feel, Phone's photo-taking abilities will improve with Lumia Camera app, Solid performance for the price
Camera currently struggles in low light, "Hey Cortana!" active listening won't be supported, Still lags behind iOS, Android in quality apps
Microsoft correctly labels the Nokia Lumia 830 as an "affordable flagship," with an appealing mix of performance, features, and price. And the phone will improve somewhat once Microsoft pushes the Lumia Camera app to the phone....
High-quality materials and decent build, Good Wi-Fi range, Removable battery, Expandable storage, Decent camera, Wireless recharging, Good GPS receiver, Decent battery life, Miracast and DLNA, Useful, preloaded software, Bright screen with high color accu
that however has an increased black level, Strong IPS glow in flat viewing angles, Sluggish SoC, No ac Wi-Fi, No Cortana in Europe, Inferior speaker
Nokia's Lumia 830 sets sail under the old flag one last time. The design strongly resembles that of the Lumia 930, and pleases with high-quality materials and an excellent build. This impression stretches over every detail. For example, both the SIM and m...

Solid aluminum frame, Impressive, image-stabilized rear camera, Good everyday performance
Struggles in some games, Merely average front camera, Quirky white balance (though pending updates may improve things)
The Lumia 830 strikes a good balance with its premium aluminum frame and mid-range internals. Those looking for a solid camera experience at this price range should take a good look....
Good camera, quality materials and design. Removable battery and expandable storage
Display is just decent, CPU and graphics aren't for hardcore gamers
We like the Lumia 830, though it's hard to rave about a phone that's designed to sit directly in the middle in terms of price and features. It's neither an outright bargain, nor is it packed with the best specs currently available. Instead, this Lumia tar...
The Lumia 830 and Lumia 920 are both excellent examples of quality Windows Phones. What makes the Lumia 830 interesting is the fact it not only matches, but also often excels against the Lumia 920. The Lumia 8xx-series though is understood as being less f...
