My review on my Lumia 720 after usage of about a month...!!!
If I divide PROS and CONS, all PROS goes to Nokia and all CONS comes under windows.
PROS - Ultra stylish look, Awesome touch, Quality Camera, Long lasting battery life...etc. U would have read all these everywhere
and here is the main part-
CONS -
1. No proper browser (UC browser is the only one available other than the default IE)
2. As we all are well aware of IE , I started using UC browser - in every 20 seconds of my browsing, screen goes blank for 10 seconds saying the memory is getting cleaned. Since I'm a heavy net surfer, I couldn't digest this.
3. We cant scroll the music or videos to the respective point directly, we need to hold the forward button till the dot reaches the desired time range.
4. There is no ON/OF option for auto motion(screen automatically goes vertical/horizontal and we don't have any control on this). It will be a very good neck exercise
5. There is a folder named 'Other' in my phone memory, which already occupied 2.5 GB and still growing fast. No option to clean this up. I heard - only temporary files will be stored under this folder.
6. Downloaded maps are getting installed directly in the phone memory (I can't see any option to move these to SD card)
7. If you dial a number and later found a number is mistyped, if you try to edit and call - you are really wasting time, just type the entire number again.
8. You cant scroll online videos, you are forced to finish the entire video
9. The headset given with this phone is the worst ever crap I've seen in my entire life.
10. I'm still not sure how set a ringtone of our choice other the sh!t which Nokia have provided. (I don't have time to search on web for THIS problem)
11. Unable to create a play list directly, prompts me to connect to the computer (What a joke..!!)
12. No music apps in the store. U just have to fight with the defualt music app given.
13. Maps are OKAY , there is no satellite view option - you just see plain lines.
14. Not able to download attachments from my mail box.
15. No file explorer, for those who asks why ? If need to rename a file with different extn for security reasons and later edit when ever needed, do I have an option ?
16. If you click on any option, your screen goes blank for 3-4 seconds with a 'Loading' message (This will really test your patience)
Few of these CONS which I mentioned here might have solutions in web already (Not sure)
There are lot more that I can't remember now and I will post those later. I'm giving 2 stars because of the few PROS I mentioned earlier...!!!
You can pm me if you have any queries or answers for the above.......!!!!
