Nokia Lumia 720 Hits The FCC

Nokia Lumia 720 Hits The FCCPlenty of devices go through the hallowed doorway of the FCC each week, as these need to be tested under different conditions in order to make sure that they are fit and ready to be used among the general masses without any issues. Having said that, you might want to take a good and long, hard look at the Nokia Lumia 720 above, especially so if you happen to live in the US. After all, this is most probably the nearest to the Nokia Lumia 720 that you are going to get to without having to go through the troubles of dealing with an importer.

The Nokia Lumia 720 has hit the FCC and subsequently, picked up overall nods of approval from the body, although it does not come with LTE connectivity that majority of the US carriers are looking forward to. However, the Nokia Lumia 720’s full manual is definitely available for one to peruse through, in addition to HSPA+ support on AT&T’s frequencies. We do look forward to check out a Nokia Lumia 720 model that sports US-native LTE sometime down the road, keeping our fingers crossed that the folks over at Nokia might actually change their minds eventually.

Nokia Lumia 720 And Lumia 520 Priced And Dated In The UK

Nokia Lumia 720 And Lumia 520 Priced And Dated In The UKUK retailer Clove did not shy away from two of Nokia’s latest starlets, namely the Nokia Lumia 720 and the Nokia Lumia 520, which will see Windows Phone 8 devices finally come with a far more affordable price tag compared to the insanely priced Lumia 920 flagship device. It seems that Clove has announced that you can pick up either one of two of these handsets later this coming April 1st, and we did check that this is no early April Fool’s prank being announced more than a month in advance.

The Nokia Lumia 720 will definitely be the looker among the two, sporting a sleek body that measures just 9mm thin, coupled with interchangeable covers for that added touch of personalization, and a smartphone camera which is touted to offer a wide f/1.9 aperture shooter which we hope will be able to deliver some of the more admirable results even in low light conditions. Both the Nokia Lumia 720 and Lumia 520 were announced officially at Mobile World Congress this year, and should be making their way to your country pretty soon, too.
