Anyone try the otterbox case for the 920? I've never been a fan of cases, but having spent $180 to replace a screen, I can't keep the official case, which does not protect the screen. I need this phone to last at least until Fall.

My brother has the Defender case. That thing is hard as a rock. I use the AGF Ballistic case, which is nice, but the otterbox is IMO better.

You know, the Nokia PlayTo app is pretty awesome. Got it hooked up to my 360 and it works like a charm!

Lumia 800 user here.
Tested the waters with a 710 some time ago and loved it, so decided to upgrade. My next phone will probably be a Lumia. Love the OS, it's so stylish <3

Week 2 of owning a 920 and I'm loving it. I'm very surprised at the battery life. I can go almost 2 days between charges which is much more than my Focus.

What does the app do and where can I find it? Wondering if it will work on my 620 or not.

It works yeah, scan this QR code for it

I'll just quote WPCentral, "PlayTo enables consumers to stream content from their Windows Phone to compatible hardware. Televisions, Xbox and computers to name but a few. Videos, music and photos can be fired from the Windows Phone to other installations over the WLAN."

Thanks.

Haha! Never used the QR Code thing, kinda handy!

I like it a lot. Adds more bulk but I don't mind. 2nd day of having the case I dropped my phone on concrete and phone is perfect still. That Otterbox Defender case fits over the L920 like a glove.

 

[U2NUMB]

YES.. through work I have had an LG Quantum for nearly 2 years.. loved it at first but shortly after that the larger screen smartphones came out and I started to hate it based on the bulk. Well I just now convinced our IT department to order me a 920.. so excited so I will be joining the Nokia tribe soon!

Sorry had to share my excitement!

Got my free Lumia 620 shell!

really nice the white, phone also feels a lot more solid too now compared to the black one that i was using.

Where can you purchase those online? I hate the way the black Lumia 620 looks. It looks kinda bland.

 

[kharma45]

It is yeah, I actually prefer it to the gloss white on the 920 that I had.

It's the usual two finishes applied to the 620 covers to give them a slightly different hue than you'd imagine it to have, it's very 'soft'.

Haven't a clue, it came free with the phone.

Here's a few pictures of the case on the phone itself

I tried to capture in that last photo how the Nokia logo almost floats on the back of the case due to the dual-layered finish of it.

Damn, that looks great. I love the matte white finish--ARE YOU LISTENING, NOKIA? It looks kinda ethereal around the edges.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Checked out a 620 yesterday and I really liked it. The 620 actually has a better GPU than the 920.

For my next phone I would like to go back to something a bit smaller, preferably 4-4.3". I like the 720 a lot. Give me that in a HD screen with a bit more memory.

Sadly it's affecting mine, apparently an issue with the grounding of it.

I noticed this too. The cyan one they sent feels far better. Less movement in the shell.

a bunch of people have commented on the colour of the phone. Looks 100% better than the black.

 

[Funky Papa]

The lime green 620 looks so damn good in person.

Checked the app and yes, I have that issue. Which probably explains a few bugs I had noticed.

Take the shell off and hold as normal and it works fine though.

I got someone else to check theirs and it was fine, will check out my gfs on Sunday to see if hers has this issue.

Hmm, bit of a weird one. You would think if it was a grounding issue that it would effect all the units.

 

[Walshicus]

Anyone know a good case for the 920? I've got a black model, but I'm quite partial to the Cyan design so something in that colour would be great.

White looks really nice! I knew I should have picked that as my first option. Still waiting to see what I get.

Here you go. I ordered a 920 case for him and it came in about 10 days.

I would be way to nervous trying to install something like that. Would love to change mine.

My cyan shell in case anybody was thinking about going for one...

Last picture sort of shows off the two tone effect.

Isn't the green glossy, though? I much prefer the matte colours for that reason.

Blue as first choice and then Orange I think.

You'll probably get the blue then, most people seem to be getting their first choice.

I was hoping they had red but I did not see one. Had to make do with a red leather case instead.

This is starting to be comical. I ordered my Lumia 920 in 13th of decemeber and I still don't know when I will get it. Lumia 920 is still completely soldout here in Finland... I want my phone. =(

Free shell? Where did you buy the phone from? I bought mine (cyan) from expansys online in order to get it in the us. Is this deal through Nokia?

 

[Tekniqs]

joined the crew! black 920...they didn't have the cyan, but oh well...sexy ass phone!

Anyone got app recommendations? I dl'd a bunch of them per XDA thread but i'm probably missing a ton.

Is there something like tapatalk?

Getting 920 in Poland isn't a problem.

Not sure about tapatalk, but some of my favorites are Amazing Weather HD, TV show, Metrotube and Wordament.

It's new, so it's still a bit buggy, but it's being updated very regularly and it's improving quickly.

I got a cyan case on my black 920 to add some colour, but sometimes I feel like I would rather have the case off.

Oh man that sounds shitty. That's definitely putting me off buying that phone. I remember older (as in a older than the last year) Nokia phones having small and sometimes big issues that Nokia just never recognized and never fixed. I don't trust them to fix this at all.

I actually had no clue about availability, just remember seeing some post about how WP marketshare there was really high.

Maybe those mid-range WP7 phones. I haven't seen anyone using 920.

for those on At&t, what's the newest firmware? Just want to make sure
