Nowadays a phone is no longer just a gadget that we use solely to keep us connected to family, friends and the virtual world – it’s also an accessory that’s supposed to complement your outfit and also reflect your personality.
The Nokia Lumia 720 has been released in the market for quite some time now, and we’ve been eyeing it ever since with the question – Would our female readers be inclined to give it a try? After playing around with it, the answer is yes. Why? Here are our thoughts.
Affordability & Quality
By Nokia standards, the Lumia 720 is a midrange phone, but it runs on Windows Phone 8 and is equipped with a HD 1.3MP wide angle front camera, plus a 6.7MP exclusive Carl Zeiss wide angle camera. Those of us who love taking pictures will rejoice at Nokia’s f1.9 aperture that ensures quality snaps even at low light. The 4.3″ display of the phone is also very clear, so you’ll have no difficulty reading your messages, Lipstiq.com updates or looking at friends’ pictures, and the touch screen reacts to long fingernails as well as gloved fingers. All this for only RM999 – an affordable price tag for any urbanite!
Useful apps
There are several apps that we liked on the Lumia 720:
- ‘Glam Me’ lets you edit your pictures, from whitening your teeth to give your skin that beach tan, and there are also several effects to choose from.
- Wanna remove unwanted faces or objects in photos? ‘Smart Shoot’ combines multiple photos taken in the same setting into one picture and you can erase undesirable elements from your end product.
- Nokia Maps and Drive’s plus point is that it also works offline! Not only does it navigate you to your favourite destination, it also allows you to check the traffic condition.
- MyDistress app should address security concerns and connects you to nearby safety forces.
Chic design
The Nokia Lumia 720’s design is chic but doesn’t compromise on its solidity – and yet it only weighs 128 grams! Best of all it’s available in matte red, yellow, black, and glossy white, so you can choose one that best reflects your personality.
Not sure which Nokia Lumia 720 colour would suit you? Here’s a short colour personality guide:
