I know this has been beaten like a dead horse ever since reviewers pointed out that the Lumia 920 felt like a 'tank', but I couldn't help but chime in after finally getting my hands on a 920. Any single reviewer that says the 920 is too heavy is about as strong as a blade of grass. That isn't a joke.
The 920 has distributed the weight so much more evenly across the entire device, and the rounded back makes it just that much easier to hold. After using a 900 since it came out in Canada, I can reassure everybody that it feels lighter than the 900 in every respect.
With regards to comparing the weight to other phones, besides the 900, it is definitely heavier. However, this is not a bad thing in the slightest. It isn't made of plastic like the S3, and it isn't going to shatter when it falls on your carpet like a 4S. It feels like you could throw it at the wall, pick it up, and carry on using it as you normally would without even getting a scratch on the screen.
So basically, the point of this thread is to say that if you think the 920 is too heavy, you could not be more wrong.
