1. Microsoft Office: One of the biggest advantages that the Lumia 820 has is that it works well with MS Office. Nokia and Microsoft are hoping to bridge the gap between work and play on a handset with the new and improved Office. Users of the Lumia 820 no longer need to sit in front of their computers all the time, they then work with Excel, PowerPoint and Word anywhere, anytime.
2. Nokia City Lens: With a Lumia 820 in hand, one can never get lost. All a user has to do in unfamiliar territory is hold the phone up to get all the information about nearby places to eat and hang out. Restaurant locations, reviews, booking options and ways to get there are just a click away with Nokia City Lens.
3. Smart Shoot: One of the best apps on the Lumia 820, Smart Shoot takes multiple snapshots every time a user clicks a picture. It then chooses the best of each individual character in each shot and merges them all together to come up with the best shot of the lot. With Smart Shoot, Lumia 820 users no longer need to worry about red eyes, frowns and unsmiling faces.

6. Nokia Maps: Nokia has put in some hard work on its Maps application and it looks like it is ready to take on Google in a big way. From driving and walking directions and public transportation options to the time estimated for travelling, Maps lets Lumia 820 users plan their schedule to the last detail, without getting lost along the way. The best part of it all? Content on Maps can be downloaded for offline viewing too.
