Nokia Lumia 930, the key for nokia to enter the flagship market?

Windows phone is already struggling with the market share and most of its market share lies in the budget smartphones like the nokia lumia 520! 

Windows phone is not really popular in the flagship market as most people avoid because of the lack of apps! but another reason for that i think was there isn't any perfect flagship by nokia or htc or any other windows phone manufacturer! Sure, there is lumia 1020 or the lumia 1520 but these both are really not the perfect as the lumia 1020 is really bulky and heavy and lumia 1520 is really big and heavy too! 

But this situation will be changed after the launch of the nokia lumia 930 which comprises the best specs and the best design! How? let's find out by looking at its strong points that could make it a worthy rival!

DESIGN AND INTERNALS

First off is the design and the built quality!Nokia has been always great in the design and built quality of phones and the nokia lumia 930 is no exception!

The nokia lumia 930 fits perfectly in hands and is a pleasure to hold with its poly carbonate design and good feel makes it really a stand out from the crowd and there's no risk of slipping it from the hands which you find on the phones with aluminium design and it is not the cheap plastic you see in Samsung or any other plastic phones like the iPhone 5c! So in design it is going to be a tough competition for others!

Nokia has also passed on microSD support instead relying on 32GB of internal storage and 7GB of free Microsoft OneDrive cloud space. That should be more than enough for most users, but there's still a strong contingent who like the microSD option, myself included.

DISPLAY

Fire up the Nokia Lumia 930 and you'll be greeted by the impressive 1920 x 1080 OLED display which is suitably bright with a high level of colour reproduction!

The screen is awesome just like we saw on the nokia lumia 1520! 

The 5inch display is perfect and is not big like the nokia lumia 1520! So no problem there and has great outdoor visibility as always we see in nokia phones!

PROCESSOR AND PROCESSING...

When we talk about processor, the nokia lumia 930 comes with the 
same processor as we saw in the lumia 1520 that is a 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, a decent offering but slightly behind the times as the new trio of Android flagships all sport the newer 801 chip.
That's not a huge issue as Windows Phone is less power hungry, and with 2GB of RAM also inside I found the Lumia 930 was exceptionally fast and smooth.
I had no trouble moving around the live tiles and scrolling through the application list, and apps opened promptly.
The processor is really faster as you would except and would never disappoint while playing any high ends like asphalt 8 or nova 3!

CAMERA

Nokia prides itself on its smartphone camera technology and the Lumia 930 continues that trend with a 20MP Pureview snapper on the rear with dual LED flash, OIS (optical image stabilisation) and Carl Zeiss lens.

You'll also find the Nokia camera application which has a simple user interface for those who just want a point and shoot offering, but there are professional controls available too.
Just slide the on-screen shutter key to the left and a whole series of settings including ISO, white balance and exposure will appear allowing you to fine tune your image capturing.
As well as recording full HD video the Lumia 930 also comes equipped with four microphones for what Nokia says provides an "immersive video experience and rich recording with surround sound." I'll be sure to put this to the test in the in-depth review.
There's a front facing 2MP camera on the Nokia Lumia 930 for all those selfies and Skype calls you'll be making on the handset too.
Camera quality is actually almost the same as on the nokia lumia 1520!

BATTERY LIFE

Battery life has been always a strong point for nokia and nokia lumia 930 doesn't fails too!
There's a non-removable 2420mAh battery housed inside the Lumia 930's aluminium frame and Nokia claims it's capable of 18 hours standby, nine hours of video playback or 75 hours of music playback.
It looks a bit small but it is perfectly capable of getting you a battery life of almost two days!

TO SUM UP...

The Lumia 930 is the most complete Windows Phone to date. It's the first to properly challenge the flagship might of Android and iOS with its impressive design, new Windows Phone 8.1 software and all round decent specs.
I think it is going to be a worthy rival to the existing flagships, for those who have been thinking to buy the perfect windows phone will be buying this with no second thoughts at all!
