Should I still buy the Nokia Lumia 720?

[jesj]

Its 8th March 2014 and there are new Lumia launches expected in April 2014. Wondering if I should still wait for the launch or just get the Lumia 720. I'm actually looking for the upgraded version of the 720 (as in RAM, if there is going to be one). The main reason for sticking to the 720 is its form factor, camera and battery back-up. If other alternatives exist to the 720 (in the similar price range), please advice. Thanks!

How is the camera on the Lumia 1320?

it has a 5 MP camera (less than the 720) but I think it should be good...

1320 camera is terrible once uve used the 720 "s camera otherwise 1320 is better
not that 1320 is bad or anything and neither is the 720
bigger screen ,ram and battery-1320(battery life is nearly the same though)
better camera and slightly different design-720
both are great phones and perform nearly similiarly otherwise and are well built etc

for gaming-1320 no doubt
for photography-720 no doubt

edit-try the 1320 and 720 camera first,big difference
hope i helped

Hmm u can buy lumia 720 it has a solid battery backup of 2 days.but if u wait get devices running wp 8.1.at this price lumia 720 is the best in wp 8 .no lag or hang but being 512 mb ram u cannot get games like temple run 2 or subway surfers which are available only for 1 gb ram.lumia 1320 has big screen but camera quality is lower compared to gr8 lumia 720.

Or should I wait for the new releases that are rumored to come by April 19th? Will the 630 or 635 be worth the wait?

Its your choice from what i hear 630 has 8 mp camera without flash.i do not think it will be par with lumia 720.as lumia 720 is testament to a gud camera.but lumia 630 has 1 gb ram

i think no unless ur into games,only then the wait will be worth
i have a 720 and it works perfect for me at the moment
also have another 720 and an 820 at home(family mems) and dont really find a major difference yet so im assuming itll be a while before 720 or 1320 get outdated ,if u can wait ,wait it out might be worth waiting for all you know

either choice is worth anyway imo

dont forget 630 leaks show no capacitive buttons and no camera button(physical keys) other than volume and lock button
frankly i feel its a bad move on nokias part,i dont like android like on screen buttons all the time,if its optional it would be a welcome change so we could choose according to our prefs

Hmm agree nokia going from top to bottom with this kind of plans in future.

It all depends. If you can afford a more advanced phone then dont buy it but if you dont want to spend to much go for it, anyway I would wait if I were in your place.

Any word on an upgraded version to the Lumia 720 coming early this year? Thanks!
