Honestly? Nokia could have been more creative with the phones. I honestly cannot differentiate which is which...

As in with the external look? That's part of the design language I think.

+1 on similarity...
but spec for 720 really good
it's everything under a nice package

Yeap. I mean, it looks fresh when we first have 920 and 820. But now almost every wp8 phones look the same and I think they really need to do something to differentiate it?

Yeah they should've released this rather than the 620. Can't wait for this!

yupe the car wireless charger feature!!!

and its going to be under RM1000 or maybe RM1099 hmmm hmmm hmmmm 820 is selling at RM1399 now.

820 use faster hotter CPU that use more power then the battery is smaller. I think 820 no super sensitive thing. so 820 is wasted totally by 720.

this one? fuuuu the battery life sure beat even 920. 2000mah powers the slower CPU + smaller 4.3 screen + lesser ram + lower resolution.

I guess the battery is build-in like 920. If not build-in, swap into sun global =


I hope they price is @ 999

The battery life going to be awesome With these specs? RM 999? Impossible. Estimating RM 1099-1199.

wah.. lucky i havent buy 620.. i guess this is the phone to aim for now!! lol

620 = 699, 820 = 1399, so I think they gonna price it @ 999. 1199 is just too close to 820 already.

249 euro just about RM1K only.

620 is 799 when it launched. 1099 it is then!

wait 1-2month 999 for 720 is possible.

Yes, but worst part now is waiting Nokia to launch it. Hope won't delay forever like the 920 and 820.

i think i might grab it soons it comes malaysia

lol

tapi you kata nk pakai lumia 800 smpai bila2??you want me to quote your replies and pos it here bro??

wakakka

l800 still akan gune

maybe this one for sparepart
lol

spec wise is L720 better than L820?

but it weight down a lot from 820's heavvy 160gram

impossible. 1ghz performance cannot beat 1.5ghz
speaking from experience after tested a low end (my own) vs high end WP8 (kawan punya)

Depends on which specs but overall Lumia 720 is better.

Pros :
Better camera(front n back)
Better batery
Better dimensions (thinner and lighter)
Better screen (according to some reviews)
Cheaper

Cons :
Slower processor and ram
No LTE



720's low light photo capability

The specs of 720 is impressive indeed. I think it's closer to 820 than 620.
Seeing how 620 is selling much, much better than 820, I would not be surprised if Nokia Malaysia price the 720 closer to 820 pricing. Otherwise, if it's smack in the middle of 620 and 820, it's going to affect the sales of both 620 and 820. It's all about price balancing.

wow...i am quite surprised Nokia put carl zeiss lens for their midrange phone.

btw,is the battery built in or removable?

This post has been edited by lan_86: Feb 26 2013, 04:09 PM

Built in. Same unibody design like 920. Non-removable back cover.

i think the price for L720 will be Rm 1099.

L620 now = Rm 799, L820 now = Rm 1399, difference Rm300 for each series

then normal shop will sell rm899 because always rm200 cheaper than nokia store rrp...

nah doesn't always work that way. like the 620 rrp is 799 but shops sell it 649-699.

Wow...nice specs. Can consider.

gooding. any speculation as when it might reach our hands?

any idea does lumia 820 hv this Glam me, smart shot and erase feature. Tq

Yes, all the WP8 Lumias can have this. Just download the apps from the Store.

Great...then I think I will go for lumia 820 bcos don't know when wii lumia 720 launch in malaysia

haha...just buy the 820 and 720 lorhh

This will be my next phone

any idea when coming to malaysia?

Nope so far there's no announcement of release date in any countries. Only the online retailers in UK are claiming to be able to supply the phone on April 1st. If according to that Malaysia should be before April 1st.

I'll definitely gonna buy this.

but only 512MB RAM. Will higher RAM help the phone run smoother?

based on my experience, WP run smooth on 512MB

256MB(lumia 600) also smooth, but lag abit if open heavy apps

Limitation won't come on the OS side. Only certain apps, especially games will require more than 512mb ram.

even the ridiculous bejeweled need 1gb of ram

if u plan to play games on ur phone then 620/720 is not for u. 1st the insufficient 512ram. 2nd WP8 not much game available.

bila masuk? i want to buy it badly!

How many Lumias you wanna buy? Make complete collection?

no la.. i kinda like wp8..
free navigation summore..

I know. Been checking online like 10 times daily for any release date or pricing. But none. -.- jobless cause on sem break

First unboxing!

http://www.latinospost.com/articles/15744/...hone-launch.htm

The new Nokia smartphone will also hit retailers with a recommended retail price of AUD$429. When converted to the U.S. dollar, the Lumia 720's price is approximately $449.

When converted to the U.S. dollar, Clover noted the Lumia 720 will cost $379.06, or $454.87 with the VAT.

any information from nokia malaysia when this phone gonna launch?

Nope, as usual no info and late. Most probably by mid April or end of April.

hopefully the price not above 1k

L720 L520 listed in Sirim's data base

http://www.lowyat.net/2013/04/04/6736/noki...ch-is-imminent/

zzz saw the unboxing photo.. fall in love with the yellow lumia edi..

if u guys have a choice to get 2nd hand 920 for 1k
and new 720 for 1k also.. which 1 would u choose?

second hand 920? for 1k? whereeee? haha, i don't like used things so new 720!

lol just saying.
wah.. rather get a new 720 ah...
if the 720 comes with 1 gig ram then perfect already
all the windows app so memory demanding..yet the phone..

that's me cause i don't like used stuffs, personal preference right but alot apps are being optimised for 512mb ram devices. because in volume these mid range and low range WP8 phone are gonna sell the most. so developers will be missing out if they dont optimize it.

buy lah this phone if you want daily usage for internet and games. this phone is just sexy as hell! with 2000mah battery? SUPERB!

this phone is not perfect because nokia want it to be not perfect...since they will make you pening2 when deciding between a L820 and L720...my advise..go for long term investment...take the Lumia 820 instead..

Low end with big screen plus bigger battery actually not bad at all

Also dont forget widescreen ffc and fstop 1.9 for primary cam which l920 and 820 also dont have

It's not nokia doesn't want it to be perfect, but all ways to cut cost so everyone can afford high end feature in a midrange device. About the ram, nokia decided so because there is no performance difference in using 1gb and 512mb. Only the apps optimisation.

so far I don't see any significant lags between 920 and 620, both works fine and I feel very satisfy with what Microsoft had done to the WP8, only needed some more tweaks and friendlier UI and notifications should be nice!!

and I agree, you very pening lah choosing L820 or L720

http://www.lowyat.net/2013/04/11/6900/noki...0-520-malaysia/

RM999 for L720

oke, nice pricing there!!

after 2 3 months rm600 sure buy..hahah

well , patience is value

i'm buying this to replace my aging xpress music 5300!

my 5800 still serving me well haha...

mine not well now have to use my fathers x2-01.. the battery already out.. the casing already break.. sad liao

hmm casing now no more sell d right?

how long u use that phone liao?

around 3-4 years.. after my hard earned n70me left inside taxi

so long... mine i think not less than 4 yrs.. still working well dunno when it will kong haha..

my battery was the only problem.. other than that i was perfectly happy with my 5800.. of course i still prefer my old n70ME T_T it was a veryyy goood phone too

so here i am.. used nokia since the 6150, to 3310, to 3200, to 2600, then 3220, after that 6600 then only my n70.. after that 5800xm.. all i very sayang them.. now using x2-01 and 1616 + a local smartphone.. so i was thinking of upgrading the x2-01 to lumia 720

agree. u should get lumia 720 as the price is very tempting now

before this i was very tempted with 620.. was thinking of buying the phone before going to thailand / vietnam / cambodia, but nokia malaysia released the phone too late.. so now i'm considering 720 because of its battery and the new sensor and the f1.9 aperture.. very gooding

hopefully u can get this phone asap and satisfied with it

dillemma liao.

Dont know want 720 or top up to buy 920 or not

920 drop price soo much, RM500 diff only lol

just go for which phone that suits you

920 is heavier, bulkier, and i think cannot insert sd card. but got pureview technology, so lowlight camera is good. also good image stabilizer. if u want high end go for 920, for now i think im gonna go for the mid spec 720 and later wait for the latest lumia high end smart phone

BTW, just to add another poison to this thread.
http://blog.gsmarena.com/nokia-lumia-720-b...re-the-results/

but the 720 dun have HERE+ right??

Both the 520 and 720 does not have HERE Drive +. But to be frank there's not a massive difference between HERE Drive and HERE Drive+. If you're using HERE Drive+ you can use the app in multiple countries and regions, but if you're using the HERE Drive, you will only using it in one country using it's simcard.

To put it simple, HERE Drive - if insert the first simcard in Malaysia, you can't use the HERE Drive outside Malaysia.

But the problem is, the first sim card will define the HERE Drive apps iinm.. right?

Yeah, its according to first sim card put in. So if you buy in Malaysia but put UK sim you'll get UK maps.

better get device with HERE+ since more worth it as a long term investment..

after it looses beta,
i think those with here can upgrade to here+,

maybe kena buy la..

yeah. i wonder how many ppl in malaysia willing to buy one just for the sake of using it at another country.. it's not like you will be driving car at another country. most of the time you either travel by bus or train.

that being said, here + is now in beta, once the beta gone, you can buy it. if 720 comes with here +, it will automatically crashes the 820 market. you get some, you lose some. it's what you're priority are.

I think you can get rm899 if buy from normal shop

any shop start selling this shop?

Exactly. Most people don't drive when they travel to other countries. You can still use Here Maps which is pretty awesome for walking/commuting navigation.

** HERE Maps is the same version on all the Lumias which can be used globally. Only difference is the Drive versions:
920, 820 & 620 have Drive+ (global) while 520 & 720 have Drive (regional).

Have you see our lil hands-on with Lumia 720? It's low-light camera performance impresses me, given its price-point.

http://www.lowyat.net/2013/04/11/6917/hand...okia-lumia-720/

Do note that the device that Nokia gave us to test was a prototype though although it definitely fit for duty to my eyes.

very good..
compared to my 920 when first bought with pre portico, really dissapointed..
after upgraded to portico then only can tidur malam..

You mean the low-light? Oh, mine pre-portico was fine. haven't tested the camera proper after portico though.

not lowlight, but normal sunny day, pre portico gives blurry image especially macro,
try capture some documents or word in a4 paper, very blurry u know..
seems like auto focus problem or the shutter and lens rectraction does not sync correctly.

nasib baik after portico the problem solved already.. If not, i dump this phone and buy lumia 720

Oh yes, that's true. Takdelah very blurry for me, just expected better.
Wokeh, one day gonna do this.

although spec consider mid range, but the network is without LTE support for me(living n working at LTE range <-maxis) is still lack of something...LOL...

620 is supported, so I won't be surprised if 520 and 720 will be supported in the near future. I think Drive+ is useful for us in Johor Bahru because we frequently drive in Singapore too.
I'm going to change my LG Secret that had served me since 2008. I'm considering 620 or 720, it's a RM300 difference.
