The Lumia 920 has an MRP of Rs. 38,999.

- 8.7MP camera with an LED 'pulse burst flash', which is capable of 1080p HD video recording at 30 fps. 

- Features floating lens technology, which supposedly rivals the optical image stabilization (OIS) of DLSRs, and enables the sensor to capture more than 5-10 times the light of regular smartphone cameras.

- 4.5-inch curved glass IPS LCD display, which with Nokia’s PureMotion HD+ technology, delivers a “better than HD resolution” of 1,280x768 pixels (WXGA). 

- Touchscreen will also be navigable with gloves on.
