So after unveiling the Nokia Lumia 920 and 820, the Finnish phone manufacturer has now announced the most affordable member of the Lumia-Windows Phone 8 family. Just like the other two, it will come in various youthful colors and it’s honed with the new “dual-shot color technique”. Let’s meet, the Nokia Lumia 620!
So what is the dual-shot color technique? According to Nokia, “Dual-shot adds a second layer of colored, transparent or translucent polycarbonate on top of a base layer to produce secondary colour blends and depth effects.” Moreover, the Nokia Lumia 620 will have seven cases to choose from so there will always be one that fits your mood. Cool, eh?
