Here's what I have. There are a few new ones here, but nothing much. Feel free to add pictures of or by the Nokia Lumia 929 as well as links to videos. I'm sure I missed some.

Nice find! Great close-up photos with very nice detail. I am starting to like the strip around the edge. It gives the phone at least a little bit of personality, making up for the colors and distinct edges that other Lumias have.

Although I'm still curious how well that speaker works. I've never really liked speakers on the back of phones because the sound travels away from you. I love the HTC One having dual speakers on the front, but understand it's not reasonable or easy for all phones. Bottom of the phone seems like the best compromise at the moment, so at least I can cup my hand around the speaker to make it louder.

But the speaker grill looks almost non-existent, so maybe more sound can get out of it, which makes it louder? Guess we'll find out soon (hopefully)!

I'm a little confused by this pic. I can't think of that "button" being the power button, because it looks like it slides left and right. Perhaps it's the microDS slot, hopefully.

That would be so awesome. May just be a "lock" or "mute" button of some sort, though... something like that on the old iPods or the Zunes that keeps other buttons or screen presses from functioning while listening to music.

I think the white color does this phone more justice in my opinion. It just looks so much better. The white also appears to be glossy so that could have something to do with it too.

Are you sure the white is matte? looking at one of the photos it appears there is a reflection off the back of the phone. From your post on 11:17am yesterday, fourth photo down.

The white version based on a leak from last week looked glossy to me, too, but the guy who posted the picture says it's matte white.

Here's the post he mentions that in: http://forums.windowscentral.com/nokia-lumia-929/251969-2.htm#post2240728

The white looks matte to me and has looked matte in every version we've seen of it thus far. Falorin confirmed it when he said "matte just like the black" View comparison photos below.

Here are some white 928's for comparison. The glossy looks very different:

Yeah I know it' matte since it's been seen in person as matte, the first photo just looked glossy to me. Could be the angle it's at and the low image quality which makes it look glossy. I absolutely agree the other photos are matte. And I have two 928s here, and they are very easy to spot as glossy and certainly look glossier when laying down at that same angle than the 929. But before we knew it was matte, it still appeared glossy to me. Plus the 928 was glossy, so I thought Verizon would go the same route with the 929.

But I'm glad it's matte. I've always preferred matte white over glossy white.
