The handset, which will be available exclusively at US mobile operator Verizon, showcases a departure in design from current flagship, Lumia 920, while delivering similar hardware and software specifications.<\/p>\n<p>The Lumia 928 packs a 4.5-inch OLED display with a resolution of 768 by 1280 and 334 pixels per inch, protected by Corning&#8217;s Gorilla Glass. The screen can be operated using gloves or long fingernails (women should love this). Power comes from a 1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8960 processor, 1GB of RAM and a 2000 mAh battery. The 32 GB internal storage is non-expandable.<\/p>\n<p>The smartphone features a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera capable of 720p video recording. On the back there is an 8.7 MP PureView shooter with Carl Zeiss Tessar f\/2.0 lens, 1.4 sensor, OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) that is capable of 1080p video recording. The Lumia 928 uses a Xenon flash to take still photos and an LED flash for videos.<\/p>\n<p>Nokia says that users will experience &#8220;high-amplitude audio capture&#8221; while shooting videos thanks to three built-in microphones, which can &#8220;record sound naturally and distortion-free, up to 140db&#8221;. The company also touts a better speaker, which is located on the back of the device and delivers sound at &#8220;one to two Decibels higher than anything else out there&#8221; &#8212; so Nokia claims. That should please those listening to music using the built-in speaker in public, while annoying passersby.<\/p>\n<p>Just like <a title=\"Meet Nokia Lumia 920 Windows Phone\" href=\"http:\/\/betanews.com\/2012\/09\/05\/meet_the_nokia_lumia_920\/\" >Lumia 920<\/a>, the Lumia 928 ships with built-in Qi wireless charging support and works with Nokia&#8217;s current accessories for the job, like the Wireless Charging Pillow by Fatboy (basically a wireless charging plate with a nicely designed fabric cover on top) and the JBL PlayUP speakers (which feature wireless charging support).<\/p>\n<p>In the connectivity department the smartphone delivers support for 4G LTE networks; Wi-Fi 802.11 a\/b\/g\/n; Bluetooth 3.0 + EDR; microUSB 2.0; A-GPS with Glonass support; NFC (Near Field Communication) and the usual array of sensors including accelerometer, magnetometer and ambient light sensor, among others.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/betanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Nokia-Lumia-928-600x366.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Nokia Lumia 928\" width=\"600\" height=\"366\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-149448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the software department, Lumia 928 provides access to Nokia&#8217;s exclusive app collection for Windows Phone 8, which includes the complete HERE suite (HERE City Lens, HERE Drive+ Beta, HERE Maps and HERE Transit), Nokia Music, Nokia Express, Burton and MICHELIN Travel, among others.<\/p>\n<p>The Lumia 928 measures 5.24 x 2.71 x 0.44 inches and weighs 5.7 ounces (133 x 68.8 x 11.1 mm and 161.59 grams), which means that it is taller, narrower, thicker and lighter than the 920 (130.3 x 70.8 x 10.7 mm and 185 grams). The Lumia 928 still has a generous footprint compared to its older brother.<\/p>\n<p>The Lumia 928 arrives in black or white, starting May 16, on Verizon&#8217;s online and brick-and-mortar stores. On a two-year contract, the smartphone runs for $99 after a $50 mail-in rebate. Early adopters, however, &#8220;for a limited time&#8221;, will receive a $25 credit that can be used to purchase Windows Phone apps and games.<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=5rnGZMvb78c:ELbbNKZuFcg:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=5rnGZMvb78c:ELbbNKZuFcg:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/bn\/~4\/5rnGZMvb78c\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, Nokia ended days of teases, officially taking the wraps off the Lumia 928 Windows Phone 8 smartphone.
