What is the latest firmware/OS versions for Lumia 1020 RM-875? I am asking this since I found a newer (foreign region unbranded) firmware for my Lumia 620 than was available as an online update here in Finland. Maybe this is the case also for a Lumia 1020 and I could receive a more recent...

Megapixels definitely don't matter, except when zooming is needed. This is not a problem for real cameras with optical zoom, but digital zoom is usually crap. This is the only reason for Lumia's high megapixel sensors, with 40 MPix there is enough pixels to zoom in, i.e. crop the image...

Finally gathered the courage and installed W10M on my Lumia 1020, the build 10586.107. Otherwise I like it a lot, more functionality, fast to use, but soon I noticed it also, that both the new Windows Camera and the old Lumia Camera record only monaural audio.

The best weather for winter sports, fresh snow on a frozen lake, sunshine and no other people. Winter 2016 in Finland. Camera: Nokia Lumia 1020 Edited in Photos for Windows 10

950XL, why? The hardest choice ever, maybe I would prefer the bigger screen.

Krka National Park in Croatia. Camera: Nokia Lumia 710 Default WP7.8 camera app no any post processing.

Lumia 1020 is nothing exceptional, except the camera. I love the camera. Yes, it is slow to focus, slow to store, but I still prefer one really good photo instead of many crappy ones. And god, the photos are good, better than any other camera phone, better than most quality compact cameras. All...

The Landscape Arch in the summer of 2015. It is so unbelievable nature can do things like this, since all the intuition says the thing must collapse. Camera: Lumia 1020 Contrast and saturation edited with Windows Photo editing app

Dear Microsoft, damn you, you make being a loyal customer a really difficult task and honestly impossible to recommend Windows ecosystem to anyone. Albeit 5 GB of free storage is definitely enough for word/excel etc. work related projects for normal people, the problem is media, i.e. photos...

A very simple breakfast being cooked in our holiday cottage in the autumn of 2012. Camera: Nokia Lumia 710 (WP 7.5) Photo slighly cropped in IrfanView

Do we count in hardware whose brand Microsoft owns now, but didn't at that time when they were made? For me these old Nokia phones represents the perfect engineering. They were designed to be user friendly with hugely long battery life, robust as hell, I dropped mine constantly without permanent...

A fully functional file manager, with custom search, select, delete, rename, copy, move etc... And that it would also work for network storage, e.g. Windows shares, FTP, cloud storage and especially for OTG USB mass storage.

Yes! I have used Nokia since their phones looked more like a suitcase than a handphone. I was super happy with my WP7 Lumia for a long time, but after MS revealed that it wouldn't receive WP8 update, and finally killed Skype on WP7.8 I got so pissed of that I promised myself that that was the...

There are many kind of "windows" to examine Windows 10 through them. Unfortunately, I am short-sighted so I need some help to see the display. Due to the laws of optics, one can construct a convex lens out of a "window" filled with... eh... fluid with a refractive index greater than air. Here is...
