Neowin: Hands-on with Microsoft's new Lumia 730 and 830

[Neowin]

Earlier today, Microsoft announced three new additions to its Windows Phone range: the Nokia Lumia 830, Lumia 735 and Lumia 730 (although the latter two are different versions of the same device - the 735 with 4G LTE connectivity, and the 730 with 3G and dual-SIM support).

While the new handsets were being unveiled in Berlin, we joined Microsoft's team in London for the launch, where we had a bit of hands-on time with the Lumia 830 and 735 - just long enough to form some initial impressions. 

Unlike its cheaper siblings - the Lumia 530, 630 and 635 - the Lumia 735 has a front-facing camera, and indeed, this is the handset's key selling point. "It's time for a better Skype experience, time for a better selfie," Microsoft said, shortly before revealing the device for the first time.

An excellent article which details features and compared the new models to predecessors while openly stating some shortcomings, without needless comparisons to iPhones.

Great to see.

They sound pretty nice and all but is so difficult to choose a phone nowadays with so many different makes, models and price points to choose from. Us sensible non iFans are so spoiled for choice but at the end of the day no matter which one you choose they all wind up doing the same thing, just some do it better than others.
