Abstract: Today we are posting our review of Microsoft Mobile's latest “affordable flagship” the Nokia Lumia 830.The device was announced back in September, 2014 during Nokia's (now Microsoft Mobile) IFA 2014 Event in Berlin, which I watched live.Microsoft Mobile...
At £300 (all in, in the UK at the moment) and without its unique imaging software, the Lumia 830 is nice enough, if a little pricey - with Lumia Camera onboard and making full use of the tiny but fast and powerful camera, and hopefully nearer £250 within...
Abstract: Last week I showed you in detail the Nokia Lumia 735 'selfie' phone, including my initial thoughts. While I begin wrapping up a full review for that phone later this week, the Lumia 830 arrived on my doorstep.Dubbed 'the affordable flagship' by Microsoft,...
Nokia's Lumia 830 may be a stripped-back version of the flagship Lumia 930 smartphone, but the sacrifices aren't all that great considering the cost savings.Sure, there's no 1080p screen, but the 720p display is perfectly sharp and beautifully vibrant sti...

Abstract: The Nokia Lumia 830 is the latest in a long line of mid-range Lumia handsets, but it's one that struggles to really stand out, despite its lurid colour scheme.I've commented before that Windows Phone holds an interesting place in the market. Defend it as ...
Slightly slimmer and lighter than Nokia's Lumia 930; Aluminium framing; Supports fast 4G; Features a dedicated camera button; Removable back with removable battery; Lets you tap the screen to wake it up; Upgradeable memory here on this model, but not on t
Ordinary specs; Mediocre screen that washes out and inverts at angles; Mobile 4G performance feels a little under where it should be;
Nokia and Microsoft Devices — whatever it's now called — can sure make things a little difficult to work out.With its current Lumia line-up, you can either go with the 930 which is a great phone with an ordinary battery life and no expandable storage, or ...
I want to like Windows Phone more than I do. It's still a solid OS if you tend to use your smartphone for more basic stuff. It's easy to read, works reliably smoothly, has glance-able info and does the day-to-day stuff with a graceful ease. The UI is diff...
