Nokia has just announced its newest member of the Windows Phone 8 family, the Lumia 620.
If the Nokia Lumia 920 leads the pack as the flagship and the Lumia 820 as the midrange, the Lumia 620 completes the line up of WP8 smartphone as its entry level device. For starters, the Lumia 620 is a 3G smartphone that sports a 3.8-inch ClearBlack display, a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, a VGA front-facing, 8GB of internal storage with microSD support up to 64GB, and NFC connectivity. It is powered by a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor clocked at 1GHz, 512MB of RAM, and a 1,300mAh battery.
The best part about this phone is that it only costs $249 or approximately Php10,200 – Nokia’s most affordable WP8 smartphone to date. It will be available in different colors and will ship first in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa in Q1 of 2013.

I’m a galaxy note 2 and lumia 620 user. Been with samsung’s galaxy S series since the first one and upgraded to note late last year. I’m a die hard android user BUT there is just something about windows phone 8 that makes it look and feel more polished than android/touchwiz. It just feels more.. “elegant” than the multi-layered apps/icons of android (yes, and widgets). I don’t know but I’m starting to like my 620 more than my note 2.. i just need more apps.. hmm but I need my stylus, too.. hmm..
