**First Look and Unboxing at the Lumia 928 for Verizon Wireless**
The new Lumia 928 is finally here, and we're excited to give you our first look and unboxing experience with this Windows Phone. The phone boasts an impressive set of features that are sure to make it a contender in the market.
One of the standout features of the Lumia 928 is its 4.5-inch screen, which now sports an AMOLED display. Although similar in size to the previous generation's 920 model, which had an IPS screen, this new upgrade promises to bring about a noticeable difference in terms of image quality and overall user experience.
The phone also boasts a 2000 milliampere hour battery, sealed inside the device, which should provide long-lasting power. Additionally, the Lumia 928 features a Snapdragon S4 Plus processor with a 1.5-gigahertz dual-core Gigabit RAM, offering a smooth and efficient performance. The internal storage comes in at 32 gigs, providing ample space for users to store their favorite apps, music, and other content.
The camera on the back of the Lumia 928 is undoubtedly one of its strongest features. With an 8.7-megapixel Carl Zeiss and PureView branded lens, this phone promises to deliver exceptional image quality. The Xenon flash provides better low-light performance compared to the LED flash found on the 920 model. Furthermore, the phone's front-facing camera has a 1.3-megapixel sensor, allowing users to shoot 720p video.
**Camera Comparison with the 920**
We've already had a chance to review the Lumia 920, and we're excited to compare its camera capabilities with those of the 928. The low-light performance on both phones is impressive, but the addition of the Xenon flash in the 928 promises to deliver even better results. While the screen technology may differ between the two phones, the overall design of the camera setup remains similar.
To put this to the test, we've brought in the black Lumia 920 for a side-by-side comparison with the white 928. The main differences are noticeable – the 928 is thinner and features a more premium polycarbonate plastic material compared to the matte-finish black 920. Both phones feel solid in the hand, but there's an unmistakable difference in terms of build quality.
The speaker on the Lumia 928 has also seen an upgrade, with improved sound quality compared to its predecessor. The phone's design has been tweaked as well – the camera is now located at the back, and a microphone has been added. Additionally, the SIM card slot has been moved to the top, along with the headphone jack.
The user interface remains largely unchanged, with the Windows Phone operating system still running on the device. The required by Microsoft buttons are present, including a dedicated home button and Bing search button for quick searching capabilities. On the left-hand side of the phone, the volume buttons and power/lock button have also been relocated – although the latter has moved to be below the volume control.
**Verizon Pricing and Availability**
The Lumia 928 will be available on Verizon's network starting May 16th, with a price tag of around $100. As always, prices may vary depending on the carrier, so it's essential to check with your local provider for more information.
In conclusion, we're excited to give you our first look and unboxing experience with the Lumia 928 for Verizon Wireless. With its impressive camera capabilities, sleek design, and improved performance, this phone is sure to be a hit among Windows Phone fans. Stay tuned for our full test review, where we'll put the 928 through its paces and share our thoughts on whether it's worth upgrading from the 920.

unboxing goodness that we love to do so we've got a start here so that's where I'll begin uh product safety and warranty information we've got a pretty standard looking wall warts and we've got a micro USB cable so is here hoping for some awesome headphones or any other accessories you are going to be sorely disappointed it makes packing this guy up though very easy all right so here is the Lumia 928 and I will peel off the screen protector oh that's where the SIM card lives sneaky uh so that's where the SIM card is that wasn't the screen protector appears the screen is unprotected but the back however uh is protected so I'll peel that off telling you guys hate when there are stickers on there uh so I'll try and power this guy on and we can run through all of the specs it's gonna boot up say hello welcome to Windows phone uh all right so this is very similar spec wise to the Lumia 920 although noticeably uh thinner and I think a little bit lighter as well so the dimensions it is 5.24 inches by 2.71 inches by a now thinner 0.44 inches and weighs 5.7 ounces uh it's the same resolution as an I20 it's a 4.5 inch screen with a 1280 by 768 screen although now it is AMOLED whereas on the 920 it was an IPS screen so I think it should look um just a little bit better uh 2000 milliamp hour battery is sealed in there so don't hope it getting at that sucker uh same processor as well it's a Snapdragon S4 plus 1.5 gigahertz dual core Giga Ram uh 32 gigs of internal storage live on this phone now the big story though with the Lumia phones is on the back Carl Zeiss and pure view branded lens uh it's an 8.7 megapixel camera we now have a Xenon flash as opposed to to the LED flash that we had on the 920 it's got a 1.3 megapixel sensor living up there on the front that I

big difference here though between the two uh The Flash and the screen Technologies on both phones but overall very similar this one feels really nice in the hand I keep forgetting how much I like Windows phone to actually go back and try another Windows phone so we'll use this guy tested on Verizon's Network we'll see there's anything different to show versus what we saw on the 920 and of course we're doing a full camera comparison to see how this works we're really impressed with the 920s low light capabilities should hopefully be even more improved edition of a Xeon flash so there are some other differences here between the 920 and the 928 so let me bring in let's bring in the black 920 here and you can see certainly difference there in the thickness as well as the material so
