The Nokia Lumia 1020 may not be the latest handset from the world-renowned Finnish company, but it has a lot of outstanding feats and specs that make it stand out above the rest. But how does this Windows phone score when pitted against Apple's iPhone 5S, the phenomenal smartphone that set another record for Apple? Let us take a look at the four-one-one of these two phones to find out which device is better than the other.
Nokia Lumia 1020 over Apple iPhone 5S
The first thing that is most striking about the Nokia Lumia 1020 is of course its 41MP rear-facing shooter that is quite obvious all thanks to the big bulk it gives the handset on its back area. The camera is indeed by far one of the best phone cameras in the market today. It has 7152 x 5368 pixels, a 1/1.5" sensor size, optical image stabilization technology, and Xenon & LED flash. Without a doubt, the Nokia Lumia 1020 beats Apple iPhone 5S' 8MP shooter with 3264 x 2448 pixels, autofocus functionality, and LED flash.
The Lumia 1020 is built with AMOLED display to ensure that viewing under broad daylight is still pleasing to the eyes. Although Apple's display technology also works well under the rays of the sunlight, putting these two devices side-by-side outdoors will give you a clear picture why the Lumia 1020 also deserves this round.
Additionally, the Nokia Lumia 1020 comes with a larger and quite competitive screen size at 4.5 inches, which houses 768 x 1280 pixels and comes with a pixel density of 332. On the other hand, Apple's latest iPhone installment is still behind with its 4" display that houses 640 x 1146 pixels at 326 ppi.
Finally, what's good about the Nokia Lumia 1520 is it comes not only with MS Office but as well as Nokia's premium apps such as Nokia Drive+, Nokia Pro Cam, and Nokia Creative Studio preinstalled, out of the box. What's more is that all of these premium applications enhance the over-all functionality of the smartphone.
Apple iPhone 5S over Nokia Lumia 1020
While the Nokia Lumia 1020 may bask under the glory of its larger build and stellar camera, Apple's iPhone 5S rises as the victor when it comes to processors. For one thing, Apple's 64-bit A7 chipset with PowerVR G6430 GPU will give you enough reason to use this powerful device that handles all tasks and processes efficiently.
Moreover, Apple has shocked the world this year when it introduced the Touch UD fingerprint scanner technology through its iPhone 5S. This feature ensures second-to-none security for the phone and privacy of its owner.
Although some would say that the modern trend in the smartphone market is all about the size of the handset, Apple still believes in the beauty of compact build. And it's true. Many still prefer that compact size of the iPhone 5S compared to the bigger and bulkier forms of other monster-sized phones. But we guess that's just for now since Apple is reportedly planning to join the monster-phone revolution come 2014.
Another thing that makes Apple's iPhone 5S stand out compared to the Nokia Lumia 1020 is the fact that it is encased in premium aluminum build as opposed to Nokia's polycarbonate finish.
And finally, we think that Apple obviously takes the lead when it comes to its applications in its app store. While Windows is growing by the day, it might take a lot of time for Windows to reach the number of apps found on the impressively rich App store.
