I've had this exact same phone in yellow for a few weeks now and love it more everyday. It's an awesome phone for the money and my favourite Lumia of the range. All power to Nokia and Microsoft for Windows 8 phones, excellent products at affordable prices.
Only in some games, WP8 is very fluid and doesn't need so many resources to have a smooth performance, so in the performance you wouldn't feel it, but like I said, only in some games and apps
My new nokia Lumia 720 . + Awesome battery backup +good camera quality (front and rear ) +slim ,eyecatchy , and comfortable . +very good sound quality and loud speakers . - i have very bad feeling of camera getting scratched when placed on a surface (it doesnt have rim to cover the camera eye ( so do other lumias,or it is scratch proof . who knows?) -privacy issues - getting notifications with message content -Audio jack - worst design and my phone jack failed ( now in nokia care for service )
when buying smartphones you should go to store where you can grasp the beauty of your desired phone, then think of what you are dreaming and decide for what you are going to buy. i need to buy one of the LUMIAS series just like the N' series i have N8 which has a 12mega pixels camera and now i am planning to buy LUMIA 720.
Wait a minute! in the audio settings you have an equalizer? but that's not all because it seems that it also have the Dolby Noise reduction symbol. Does it comes with the cellphone or it comes from an upgrading?
720. the most important advantage that you'll be thanking for is the screen quality, as that's the part of the phone that you see every time. same resolution but it comes with ClearBlack display and Gorilla Glass 2. 520 screen quality is just disappointing. and 720 has better speaker even compared to 920. additional advice, go with the yellow or the white one → they really show some class! (:
This is a great deal of phone, well u see it has a festure named as radio mix.......... it is an aap through which u can download thousands of songs free+its also recommended by tech guru!!!!!!!! It is a great heck of a phone to buy
Is it necessary to fully charge lumia 720's battery in the first charge(initial charge), some say it has to be charged for 7-8 hours in the initial charge to get the battery's maximum performance. is it so?
Yess it is but i like shape of 520 lumia , and i use only internet so its cheaper for me ....:) and can you tell me how to get RAPDIALLER in aur lumia 520 ???
one good thing about windows phone is that there is no need to slide to answer /receive the phone call just one touch.... where as other touch screen phones needs to slide to answer, which I hate the most......
iam used to lumia 620....then in dat case wud it look "NOTICEABLY" cheap?....i highlighted the word noticeably coz i know its ppi is less but does it matter THAT MUCH??...coz we use phones from a great distance rite....we dont put our heads in it.......so wat do u think?
do you think is a better option than L620? I mean, ignoring the biggest scream & the camera size...I can't decide between this two guys. I really want a WinPho8 but i don't have much money :(
i also wanted lumia 820 but after i've read few topics on windows phone forum i decided to go for 720 ... battery is very poor and screen cracks at very very small drops ..
I'd say it depends on how much you value the WP8 OS. If you are the kind of person that is constantly looking for app updates or new apps, then I guess it is. The 720's battery is also slightly better. Otherwise it's almost a downgrade, as the 900 has better camera, internal storage and 4G (and in my experience is also more responsive).
I love Apple products, and HTC design, I love the new HTC one very much. I embrace good gadgets, don't even care about the competition between ecosystems and companies. And by the way, only westerners and blind girls buy Samsung, cuz most of them don't know about other brands.
You should try out other phones like HTC Samsung or iPhone. You'll have a much more pleasant experience. What I also recommend is for you to stop forcing your self to like Nokia.
As a rule of thumb, I judge the success of our work by site traffic and never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever ever by TH-cam comments, which are just a slight notch over 4Chan for quality in content. Sorry.
I've got a Lumia 820 and i gotta say I really like the phone. Although the sharpness of the screen is a bit disappointing and it's very heavy... can't find much more flaws with it. Okay, could do with a bit longer battery life. But why do those wireless chargers have to be so damn expensive? For that money I can get one of the best electric toothbrushes and those are using that technology for years! 30 euros should be more than enough... but it's double that! Nokia make those chargers cheaper!
lumia. In next 1-2 years WIndows 8 with nokia will take first place on world market. Geting powerfull and soon will be much better than android : better stability, speed of work, posibilities. We must only wait for updating of W8
:-) That's not the way we use the ph .. :-) , we can use back cover , it gives camera rim like defense . . But still I consider it as a design glitch .
8x over lumia 720 → bigger RAM, 4G LTE, higher screen resolution at 342 ppi, 1080p video recording lumia 720 over 8x → slimmer body, better battery life, comes with nokia exclusive apps, camera aperture at 1.9, micro SD support, and much cheaper the advantage on lumia 720 fits me better. I don't care about the 512MB RAM cos if I want to play heavy games I'll do it on my console or PC. And the 4G LTE really depends on the operator availability. I hope it can help. (:
Guys I'm not a windows phone hater but this phone is fast but it takes for ever to charge though it does have a long period of time before run out time but it takes for ever to charge and it takes millions of space
no need to charge for 7 - 8 hours, just charge until the battery bar is full. i just bought mine 2 days ago and the guy said charging for 8 hours is ancient myth lol
Hi Frends Nokia Lumia 720 is the Best Phone ever as of today in Screen Touch, Quality and very Smooth to use as compare to Android Phones it play Games Well like Dhoom 3, Krissh 3, 3D Racing, Temple Run nd Cricket etc even the Application of L720 are too good from Nokia Store and same like Android Phones it come up with GDR 3 Update and 8.1 Windows soon it has 64 GB Expandable Memory including free downloading of Music from Nokia Mix Radio till one year unlimited. You can study download PDF files with Adobe Reader Application and Many More .. it has Nice Camera Quality Front 1.3 Megapixal and Back 6.7 Mega Pixal tuff competitior to Sony Xperia M and L guyes go for It.... it is a Perfect Phone for Perfect Person rest of people avoid it because they dont know how to operate Windows Phone i m using it since 1 Month its too good Battery performance is satisfying...i dont want to compare this phone with any other Nokia Product...... its good...
The 720's screen looks washed out when 920 is kept beside it.. But then... Even the price of 720 is washed out when compared to 920... So no complaints... More power to nokia

You make an excellent comparison between the phones that have the same design as the 720 and 520 ! Excellente Unboxing & Impressions !
I bought this phone on internet and I'm so exicited to use it. By the way IPS screen is awesome
Nokias Lumia series have got some beautiful phones!
great review master! also I like it when you keep them side-by-side for size comparison.
720 got one of the best cameras i've seen it
Amazing phone..! Already have Nokia Lumia 610 and now upgrading to Nokia Lumia 720 this Diwali ! ;-)
you nailed it with that review. 10/10
Only in some games, WP8 is very fluid and doesn't need so many resources to have a smooth performance, so in the performance you wouldn't feel it, but like I said, only in some games and apps
My new nokia Lumia 720 .
+ Awesome battery backup
+good camera quality (front and rear )
+slim ,eyecatchy , and comfortable .
+very good sound quality and loud speakers .
- i have very bad feeling of camera getting scratched when placed on a surface (it doesnt have rim to cover the camera eye ( so do other lumias,or it is scratch proof . who knows?)
-privacy issues - getting notifications with message content
-Audio jack - worst design and my phone jack failed ( now in nokia care for service )
Which should I pick? Lumia 720, the coming Nokia X2 or Nokia XL?
The 720 just caught my eye
when buying smartphones you should go to store where you can grasp the beauty of your desired phone, then think of what you are dreaming and decide for what you are going to buy. i need to buy one of the LUMIAS series just like the N' series i have N8 which has a 12mega pixels camera and now i am planning to buy LUMIA 720.
If you get too close to the screen, can you see the pixels?
Great Video.
Definitely buying this
If you can, try to get the 720. Lumia 720 has the big battery 2000mAh like the 920, you will get the best battery duration Lumia ever .
Great job Daniel
Can you tell us more about wireless charging and rear-case removing option?
Wait a minute! in the audio settings you have an equalizer? but that's not all because it seems that it also have the Dolby Noise reduction symbol. Does it comes with the cellphone or it comes from an upgrading?
Whats the diff between 720 and 920? Which is better in terms of performance? Which is better for budget?
Would you say it's a good upgrade to the Lumia 900?
720. the most important advantage that you'll be thanking for is the screen quality, as that's the part of the phone that you see every time. same resolution but it comes with ClearBlack display and Gorilla Glass 2. 520 screen quality is just disappointing.
and 720 has better speaker even compared to 920.
additional advice, go with the yellow or the white one → they really show some class! (:
I see. Thanks for the advice.

This is a great deal of phone, well u see it has a festure named as radio mix.......... it is an aap through which u can download thousands of songs free+its also recommended by tech guru!!!!!!!!
It is a great heck of a phone to buy

What are you talking about? He is one of the few people who get's my attention through the whole onboxing video
i wanna sell my lumia 620 and buy the lumia 720..after watching your video....by your opinion...is it a wise choice or i should wait for a new lumia?
What about the speaker ? Does it play music as loud as the 620 ?
best review and reply ever! :)
I am trying to chose between the 820 and the 720. For now the price difference for me is about 20 euros is the 820 those extra 20 euros worth or not?
My next phone for sure! Pikachu Lumia FTW!
Is it possible to buy the phones you guys at WPC tested?
This is BETTER. Plus you can expand the storage with a SD card.
Its an amazing phone! Love it.

They released Temple run for wp8 but It is only available for those wp8 phones which have 1 GB ram.
the screen flitters on the video or also in real life ?
Does live tiles eat up much of internet data??
I mean I have limited data plan of 1 GB so will live use up my data???
iam used to lumia 620....then in dat case wud it look "NOTICEABLY" cheap?....i highlighted the word noticeably coz i know its ppi is less but does it matter THAT MUCH??...coz we use phones from a great distance rite....we dont put our heads in it.......so wat do u think?
I wish to buy this phone now... How can i buy....?
do you think is a better option than L620? I mean, ignoring the biggest scream & the camera size...I can't decide between this two guys. I really want a WinPho8 but i don't have much money :(

is its back cover polycarbonate or matte finish...?
i've seen a polycarbonate one too.... :/
You should try out other phones like HTC Samsung or iPhone. You'll have a much more pleasant experience. What I also recommend is for you to stop forcing your self to like Nokia.
Would you please tell me where you purchased your lumia 720?
which one is better Lumia 720 or Samsung ATIV S? pls answer
does the lumia 720 have the notification light just as in the lumia 820?
Did he say 70 or 80 dollars more than the 650?? Either way the 720 is awesome
Is it possible to short circuit the device, if the three ports on the back get connected accidentally?
I was hoping that Nokia would change the screen resolution of the new Nokia Lumia 720 to atleast 720p HD, i myself have Lumia 710 n loved it ^_^
I love Lumia 720
Does it include a front facing camera?
i can't decide. which one is better, lumia720 or xperia L???

I desperately wanted to buy this phone, but I heard it only has 512MB RAM. Does it really affect the performance of the phone?
You can place it with screen down bcoz it has highly scratch resistance screen .....
good video
If anything happens to the battery then what to do ??? because the battery is not removable..... then what should we do????
good review, keep up ;D
it does, plus gps navigation too!!!

lumia. In next 1-2 years WIndows 8 with nokia will take first place on world market. Geting powerfull and soon will be much better than android : better stability, speed of work, posibilities. We must only wait for updating of W8
so does the screen flip??
The funny thing is the 520 has a higher pixel density than the 720!
cause the 520 has 0,3" smaller screen
Thats what put me off the lumia 820 the shit pixel density and the fact I hate AMOLED screens as they suffer from burn in!
I'm stuck between Xperia L and Lumia 720 . Any suggestions ?
:-) That's not the way we use the ph .. :-) , we can use back cover , it gives camera rim like defense . . But still I consider it as a design glitch .
does the screen flip ?
nokia lumia 720 or samsung galaxy s3?
i think 720 is better because i use and im very happy with my phone's speed
I dont know what to buy blackberry Z10 or nokia lumia 720 i love both of them plz help me guys
looks good!
it costs about 400 dollars in Brazil, just bought one for a bit less than that
I want to see what comes up when someone is ringing you and what happens when you get a text and see what your contacts look like
what happened on your 920 edge
8x over lumia 720 → bigger RAM, 4G LTE, higher screen resolution at 342 ppi, 1080p video recording
lumia 720 over 8x → slimmer body, better battery life, comes with nokia exclusive apps, camera aperture at 1.9, micro SD support, and much cheaper
the advantage on lumia 720 fits me better. I don't care about the 512MB RAM cos if I want to play heavy games I'll do it on my console or PC. And the 4G LTE really depends on the operator availability.
I hope it can help. (:
